The following is a sketch of process-focused facility that consists of 6 sections and the matrix for the number of material movements from one section to the next (in both directions) on a typical day. A vertical, horizontal, or diagonal move between adjacent sections is $5 while a two-section move is $10.

-We swap the positions of Section 1 with Section 6 and keep the position of other sections the same as earlier. Calculate the total trip cost for the modified layout on a given day.
A)$500
B)$650
C)$635
D)$7,500
