The Answer is

\begin{array} { | l | l | l | l | l | } \hline ext { Product Blue } & ext { Resale Revenue } & \begin{array} { l } ext { Recycling } \ ext {revenue }\end{array} & \begin{array} { l } ext { Processing } \ ext { Cost }\end{array} & ext { Disposal Cost } \\hline ext { Part A } & \$ 7.25 & \$ 3.81 & \$ 1.26&\$2.48 \\hline ext { Part B } & \$ 6.78 & \$ 2.14 & \$ 1.84 & \$ 1.07 \\hline ext { Part C } & \$ 4.13 & \$ 0.87 & \$ 0.92 & \$ 1.22 \\hline ext { Total } & & & & \\hline\end{array}

\begin{array} { | l | l | l | l | l | } \hline ext { Product } & & ext { Recycling } & ext { Processing } & \ ext { Yellow } & ext { Resale Revenue } & ext { Revenue } & ext { Cost } & ext { Disposal Cost } \\hline ext { Part A } & \$ 5.84 & \$ 6.54 & \$ 2.67 & \$ 0.88 \\hline ext { Part B } & \$ 7.14 & \$ 5.45 & \$ 4.48 & \$ 0.97 \\hline ext { Part C } & \$ 0.96 & \$ 0.69 & \$ 0.41 & \$ 0.31 \\hline ext { Total } & & & & \\hline\end{array}

Blue: $18.16 + $6.82 = $4.02 = $4.77 = $16.19
Yellow: $13.94 + $12.68 = $7.56 = $2.16 = $17.30
Yellow is the best at $17.30
