Explanation of Solution

Given information:

GF Deluxe:

Part Resale revenue per unit Recycling revenue per unit Processing cost per unit Disposal cost per unit
Metal frame $3.27 $4.78 $1.05 $0.85
Battery $0.00 $3.68 $6.18 $3.05
Motor housing $3.93 $2.95 $2.05 $1.25
Trimmer head $1.25 $0.75 $1.00 $0.65

PM:

Part Resale revenue per unit Recycling revenue per unit Processing cost per unit Disposal cost per unit
Metal frame $3.18 $3.95 $1.15 $0.65
Battery $0.00 $2.58 $4.98 $2.90
Motor housing $4.05 $3.45 $2.45 $1.90
Trimmer head $1.05 $0.85 $1.10 $0.75

Formula:

Revenue retrieval=[Total resale revenue+Total recycling revenueTotal processing costTotal disposal cost]

Calculate the revenue retrieval amount for GF Deluxe:

Part Resale revenue per unit Recycling revenue per unit Processing cost per unit Disposal cost per unit
Metal frame $3.27 $4.78 $1.05 $0.85
Battery $0.00 $3.68 $6.18 $3.05
Motor housing $3.93 $2.95 $2.05 $1.25
Trimmer head $1.25 $0.75 $1.00 $0.65
Total $8.45 $12.16 $10.28 $5.80
Total retrieval $4.53

Table 1

Revenue retrieval amount=$8.45+$12.16$10.28$5.80=$4.53

The revenue retrieval amount is calculated by subtracting all the costs involved from the resale revenue obtained which is $4.53.

Hence, the revenue retrieval amount for GF Deluxe is $$4.53.
