Currently, Mercia sells to only two customers: Vern's Chocolates (a specialty candy store chain) and Mega Stores (a chain of department stores). Vern's orders 52,700 packages and Mega Stores orders 18,500 packages annually. Variable manufacturing costs are $17 per package, and annual fixed manufacturing costs are $564,000. The gourmet chocolate business has two seasons, holidays and non-holidays. The holiday season lasts exactly four months and the non-holiday season lasts eight months. Vern's orders the same amount each month, so Vern's orders 17,100 packages during the holidays and 35,600 packages in the non-holiday season. Mega Stores only carries Mercia's chocolates during the holidays. Required: a. Calculate the product cost for…
