Explanation:

Wexpro, Inc., produces several products from processing 1 ton of clypton, a rare mineral.

Material and processing costs total $60,000 per ton, one-fourth of which is allocated to product X15.

60000*0,25=$15000

Seven thousand units of product X15 are produced from each ton of clypton. The units can be sold at the split-off point for $9 each.

Sales before split-off point:

Sales 7000u*$9= $63000

Material and processing cost= $15000

Total=$48000

The units can be processed further at a total cost of $9,500 and then sold for $12 each.

Sales after split-off point:

Sales= 7000*12=$84000

Split-off cost= $9500

Material and processing cost= $15000

Total= $59500

Wexpro, Inc. gains $11500 (59500-48000) by processing further X15. It is a financial advantage to compete with a more complex product. X15 should be processed further.

answer'; i believe the correct answer is (15,000) workers a year are treated for injuries caused by jacks, lifts or jack stands;

so they can see what that city is producing and to also see if they can some how get that product. like gold in africa.
