Suppose your firm produces electricity by burning coal. currently it buys Central Appalachia 12500 BTU per ton coal at the market price of $52 per ton. Average cost to produce coal is 35 per ton. So your firm considers buying the mine and saving $17 per ton of coal burned. Each power plant burns 1.4 million tons of coal per year. Is this a good idea? Why or why not?
