Expert Solution

Location A:

Revenue = $80,000

Cost = $55,000

Net Return = Revenue – Cost = 80000 – 55000 = $25000

Location B:

Revenue = $72,000

Cost = $50,800

Net Return = Revenue – Cost = 72000 – 50800 = $21200

Location C:

Revenue = $84,000

Cost = $58,800

Net Return = Revenue – Cost = 84000 – 58800 = $25200

Answer is: Location C will maximize the net return per year.
