Choose the better feasible plan using the stated goal
Problem
Plan A has output \(7\) and cost \(26\). Plan B has output \(7\) and cost \(24\). Compare the plans and identify the one that gives the same output at lower cost.
Big Picture
What this problem is really about
The decision has to follow the stated goal in its given order. We’ll keep each plan’s output and cost paired, compare the outputs first, and only use cost once we know whether the outputs differ or tie. When two feasible plans deliver the same output, the lower cost is the quantity that determines the better plan.
