Memphis $170,000

Biloxi $160,000

Birmingham $175,000

Explanation:

Preparation of an economic analysis of the three locations

Memphis economic analysis using this formula.

Economic analysis=(Building, equipment, administration costs+Increased transportation costs+(Expected volume *Labor and materials per units)

Let plug in the formula

Memphis Economic Analysis = $40,000 + $50,000 + (10,000 units *$8/unit )

Memphis Economic Analysis = $40,000 + $50,000 + $80,000

Memphis Economic Analysis = $170,000

Therefore Memphis Economic Analysis is $170,000

Preparation of Biloxi Economic Analysis

Biloxi Economic Analysis = $60,000 + $60,000 + (10,000 units *$4/unit )

Biloxi Economic Analysis = $60,000 + $60,000 + $40,000

Biloxi Economic Analysis = $160,000

Therefore Biloxi Economic Analysis is $160,000

Preparation of Birmingham Economic Analysis

Birmingham Economic Analysis = $100,000 + $25,000 + (10,000 units *$5/unit )

Birmingham Economic Analysis = $100,000 + $25,000 + $50,000

Birmingham Economic Analysis = $175,000

Therefore Birmingham Economic Analysis is $175,000

Therefore the summary of the economic analysis of the three locations are:

Memphis $170,000

Biloxi $160,000

Birmingham $175,000
