Method A for developing a mine containing an estimated 100,000 tons of ore will result in the recovery of 62% of the available ore deposit and will cost $23.00 per ton of ore removed. Method B of development will recover only 50% of the ore deposit, but it will cost only $15.00 per ton of ore removed. Subsequent processing of the removed ore recovers 300 pounds of metal from each ton of processed ore and costs $40.00 per ton of ore processed. The recovered metal can be sold for $0.80 per pound. How much is the expected profit if Method B is used?
