The cost of the flour from Isadore\u2019s Interstate Mill is 10 percent less than the cost of the flour from Larry\u2019s Local Mill. Even after shipping and handling fees are added, it is still cheaper to order flour that has to be shipped from Isadore\u2019s than to buy flour locally from Larry\u2019s. The statements above, if true, best support which of the following assertions?<\/p>\n<p>A. Production costs at Isadore\u2019s Interstate Mill are 10 percent below those at Larry\u2019s Local Mill.<\/p>\n<p>B. Buying flour from Isadore\u2019s Interstate Mill will eliminate 10 percent of the local flour mill jobs.<\/p>\n<p>C. The shipping and handling fees for a batch of flour purchased from Isadore\u2019s Interstate Mill are less than 10 percent of the cost of an identical batch of flour purchased from Larry\u2019s Local Mill.<\/p>\n<p>D. The shipping and handling fees for a batch of flour purchased from Isadore\u2019s Interstate Mill are more than 10 percent of the cost of Isadore\u2019s flour.<\/p>\n<p>E.
