deprec and ins 33.6 which equals 313.1 in totalCost of buy 328 giving a diff of 14.9
April 29, 2023 at 6:13 pm #683727then sir what this mean
answer given back
Note 1- it is equally as acceptable to have treated the heat and power costs as variable and include them in the above. It will not have changed the outcome and is entirely acceptable interpretation of the scenario.April 29, 2023 at 7:12 pm #683729It is TC of 313.10 compared to 328
