Source A will sell the silicon wafers for $2.1 per wafer, independently of the number of wafer ordered. Source B will sell the wafers for $2 for an order for not fewer than 2500 pcs, Source C will sell the wafers for $1,9 each but not accept an order below 3500 pcs. Assume the setup cost $100, and annual demand of 20.000 wafers. Assume holding cost of 25 percent annual interest.
