    Net advantage to repair the autos=$9,680,000

    Explanation:

    For Scrap:

    Total sale by selling defective pieces as scrap=$8,000*7000

    Total sale by selling defective pieces as scrap=$56,000,000

    For Repair:

    Total sales by selling defectives after repair=$12,000*7000

    Total sales by selling defectives after repair=$84,000,000

    Additional Cost on repair=$18,320,000

    Remaining on selling defectives after repair=Total Sales after repairing-Additional Cost on repair

    Remaining on selling defectives after repair=$65,680,000

    Net Advantage:

    Net advantage to repair the autos=Remaining on selling defectives after repair-Total sale by selling defective pieces as scrap

    Net advantage to repair the autos=$65,680,000-$56,000,000
