The marketing department has used those samples for surveys to estimate potential sales and pricing strategies. The three alternatives,which would use existing equipment, but different process conditions and specifications, are summarized as follows. Indicate which alternative seems to be the best according to the estimated data, if the objective is to maximize total profit per year.
