The quarrying cost of marble and granite blocks plus delivery cost to the processing plant each is P2,400 per cubic meter

Finance Nov 03, 2020

The quarrying cost of marble and granite blocks plus delivery cost to the processing plant each is P2,400 per cubic meter. Processing cost of marble into tiles is P200 per square meter and that of granite into tiles also P600 per square meter. If marble has a net yield of 40 square meters of block and sells at P400 per square meter and granite gives a net yield of 50 square meters of tiles per cubic meter of block and sells at P1,000 per square meter, determine the more profitable material, considering all other cost to the same and how much is the difference in profit.

Expert Solution

SOLUTION:

Given Below:

  Marble Granlte  
Quarrying 2400 2400 Per m-cube
Processing 200 600 Per m-square
Net Yield 40 50 M-square per m- cube
Price 400 1000 Per m-square
       
Now suppose 1m-cube of both is mined and extracted and then converted into tiles asper net yield all this will cost  
       
 

Summing up quarryig cost and 200 times 40 since 200 is cost of processiing per m-square

Revenue calculated as price times square meters  
Total Cost 10400 32400  
Revenue 16000 50000  
Proft 5600 17600  
       
       
  Hence Granite is more profitble
