Question

a companies division registered a loss of -$2480 while producing 80 identical parts what was the last per part

Answer 1

the loss per part was - $31

Explanation:

If the total of losses was $2480 for 80 identical parts, then the loss per part is the division of $2480 by 80:

$2480/80 = $31

So the loss per each part was $31

which normally will be given with a negative sign in front indicating loss:

- $31
