    House Co also plans to manufacture 90 sofas in June.

    Materials 10m of fabric @$50 per meter =$500

    How many metres of fabric should be purchased if 10% of material is wasted during production process?

    Answer

    90 * 10m = 900m
    Plus waste 100m
    Purchase 1000m

    Sir John, I don’t understand how they got the 100m

    For every 100 metres of fabric the buy, the 10% (i.e. 10 metres) will be wasted and only 90 meters will be available for production.

    Putting it the other way round, for every 90 needed for production they will need to buy 100.
