A printer is considering purchasing some new high-tech machines. These machines have a capacity of 6000 units per week, a fixed cost of €2000 per week, and a variable cost of €0.5 per unit. The revenue earned for every unit produced is €1.

(a) Over what range or ranges of volume of output would the company not be making a profit from these machines?

(b) Would the company be better off buying alternative machines that had a fixed cost of €3,000 per week and a variable cost of €0.333 per unit?
