For an embedded system product, the NRE cost and unit cost are the following for the fourtechnologies:Technology NRE expense Unit costSemi-custom VLSI $200,000 $5ASIC $50,000 $10Programmable FPGA $15,000 $20Microcontroller $10,000 $15a) Calculate total per-product cost for production volumes of 100, 1k, 10k, and 100k units.b) Plot these data from (a) in a single graph with semi-log (in y-axis) for per-product cost anddraw 2nd order quadratic fitted curve lines for each technology. Then, determine the bestchoice of technologies for these production volumes (100, 1k, 10k, and 100k units) to achievethe lowest per-product cost.c) From the plot in the (b), estimate the range of production volumes for which each of thesetechnologies is financially optimal.
