Which of the communities can be eliminated from further consideration because they are dominated (both variable and fixed costs are higher) by another community? i. Plot the total cost curves for all remaining communities on a single graph. Identify on the graph the approximate range over which each community provides the lowest cost. ii. Using locational break-even analysis, calculate the break-even quantities to determine the range over which each community provides the lowest cost. iii. If the company wants to produce 600,000 units, which location is preferred and what is the total cost?
