Question: b ) ABC oil refinery extracts petrol from two types of methane [ Oct 8 7 and Oct 9 2 ( premium ) ] petrol

b) ABC oil refinery extracts petrol from two types of methane [Oct 87 and Oct 92(premium)] petrol from an oil reservoir. These menthanes are also called black gold and they are stored in oil barrels. Each barrel can hold up to 158 litres. The cost of Oct 87 and Oct 92 barrels are Rs.16,418.34 and Rs.17,203.80 respectively. It is assumed that the barrels can be shipped with a lower specification limit of 5 litres. The out of specification barrels are discarded, resulting in a loss of Rs.19,500 per barrel. Therefore, the quality department checks eight barrels a day for each type of methane to make sure the oil is shipped correctly (see Table below). The annual production rate is 19,000 barrels per day. Compare the quality levels of these two types of petrol.
