Peter Parker is evaluating two different methods for manufacturing spiderwebs. The first option is manufacturing them in his home lab. This will entail purchasing an industrial-grade chemical reactor that costs $450,000. He will have to hire a lab assistant who will initially receive a salary of $60,000 a year, but that salary must be adjusted for inflation every year at an inflation rate of 2.5%. After ten years, the chemical reactor can be sold for $30,000. This lab setup can produce 10,000 cubic meters of spiderwebs per year. The second option is outsourcing all the manufacturing process to a biotech company recently set up by Bruce Banner. In this case, the price of the spiderwebs will be $14 per cubic meter over the next ten years.

Since Peter Parker is a broke student, all of this project is being financed by a superhero fund set up by his late friend and mentor Tony Stark. This fund returns 11% annually. Since this is not a commercial endeavor, there are no taxes nor depreciation to consider. Given these data, calculate the unit price of manufacturing spiderwebs in the lab and decide which of the two options makes the most economic sense. Justify your answers with calculations.

Option B makes the most economic sense.

Explanation:

Option A:

The total Initial investment amount - $450,000 + $60,000 = $510,000 total Initial investment cost excluding the adjustment for inflation every year of the staff.

Per unit manufacturing cost= $510,000 ÷ 10, 000 (cubic meters of spiderwebs per year) = $51 (implying the selling price per unit will be higher than this).

Option B:

Initial total investment cost = $0 (he only outsourced)

Per unit manufacturing cost= less than $14 (because the price of the spiderwebs will be $14 per cubic meter over the next ten years).

By outsourcing following option B, Peter would avoid the massive initial investment cost of buying the industrial-grade chemical reactor that costs $450,000. Also, since this is not a commercial endeavor he needs to be wary of the lower cost per unit of the spiderwebs he stands to gain with option B.

the correct answer is "nuclear power plants do not pollute the air". unlike fossil fuel-fired power plants, nuclear power plants do not produce chemicals or other components that could pollute the air. nuclear reactors work with uranium, creating energy by splitting the atoms in a fission chain reaction, which not results in the formation of carbon dioxide or other greenhouse gases.
