Question 17

If the interest component is not included in the total cost calculation, which year would show the maximum profit per unit cost?

Solution

Ratio in 1991 = $$\frac{10}{120}$$ = 0.833

Ratio in 1992 = $$\frac{25}{125}$$ = 0.2

Ratio in 1993 = $$\frac{20}{145}$$ = 0.138

Ratio in 1995 = $$\frac{20}{160}$$ = 0.125

1992 has maximum profit per unit cost.
