United Lumber will use trees from its forests for two products. The tree trunks will be used for lumber and the branches
converted into wood chips to make fiberboard. The cost of this conversion would be the same whether done at the logging site,
where the trees are debranched, or at United's factory. However, wood chips occupy less than half the volume of the branches
from which they are made.
The information given, if accurate, most strongly supports which of the following? !
(A) Converting the branches into wood chips at the logging site would require transporting a fully assembled wood-chipping
machine to and from the site.
(B) It would be more economical to debranch the trees at the factory where the fiberboard is manufactured.
(C) The debranching of trees and the conversion of the branches into chips are the only stages in the processing of branches
that it would be in United's economic advantage to perform at the logging site.
(D) Transportation costs from the logging site to the factory that are determined by volume of cargo would be lower if the
conversion into chips is done at the logging site rather than at the factory.
(E) In the wood-processing industry, branches are used only for the production of wood chips for fiberboard.
答案是D选项。选项中的Transportation costs from the logging site to the factory 意思是说从logging site 运到 factory 的运费吗???既然在两个地方成本一样都可以加工,为什么从logging site 运到 factory 呢?不运的话不就不会产生运输费用这样更便宜吗???还是选项的意思表达的是把东西分别从logging site 和 factory 运到其它地方的费用
