Final answer:
The correct option is a. $300. Without the specific cost per hour to run the broiler, it's not possible to accurately determine the savings from cutting one hour each day.
Step-by-step explanation:
The question pertains to savings gained from cutting one hour of broiler "on" time each day over the span of a year. To determine the savings, one would need to know the cost of running the broiler per hour and then multiply this cost by the number of hours saved annually (365 hours).
However, since no specific cost per hour of broiler operation is provided, we will assume that the values mentioned resemble the total annual cost of broiler operation on an increasing scale. If cutting an hour a day translates to around $300 in savings for a $1,000 annual cost, then by proportional scaling, we can observe the pattern that each additional $1,000 in the initial annual cost increases savings by $300.
Without a clear indication of the initial annual operation cost for the broiler, it is not possible to provide a precise answer to the question. Savings depend on the original operational costs, thus more information is required to answer accurately.
