    Option (c) is correct.

    Explanation:

    France:

    Production cost per unit:

    = Amount of paint produced : Total input cost

    = 4,000,000,000 : $3,500,000

    = 1142.85714286

    Productivity:

    = Production cost per unit : Amount of paint produced

    = 1142.85714286 : 4,000,000,000

    = 0.0000028571

    Germany:

    Production cost per unit:

    = Amount of paint produced : Total input cost

    = 5,500,000,000 : $5,250,000

    = 1047.61904762

    Productivity:

    = Production cost per unit : Amount of paint produced

    = 1047.61904762 : 5,500,000,000

    = 0.00000019048

    Spain:

    Production cost per unit:

    = Amount of paint produced : Total input cost

    = 4,600,000,000 : $5,250,000

    = 876.19047619

    Productivity:

    = Production cost per unit : Amount of paint produced

    = 876.19047619 : 4,600,000,000

    = 0.00000019048

    France is higher than that of the factory in Spain.
