answer B is incorrect

Spartan Castings must implement a manufacturing process that reduces the amount of particulates emitted into the atmosphere. Two processes have been identified that provide the same level of particulate reduction. The first process is expected to incur $500,000 of fixed cost and add $70 of variable cost to each casting Spartan produces. The second process has fixed costs of $200,000 and adds $120 of variable cost per casting. a. What is the break-even quantity beyond which the first process is more attractive? The break-even quantity is 6000 castings. (Enter your response as an integer.) b. What is the difference in total cost if the quantity produced is 7,500? The total cost of process 2 is greater. The difference in total cost is $ 150000 (Enter your response as an integer.)
