Underground Food Store has 6,000 pounds of raw beef nearing its expiration date. Each pound has a cost of $4.40. The beef could be sold "as is" for $3.00 per pound to the dog food processing plant, or roasted and sold in the deli. The cost of roasting the beef will be $2.70 per pound, and each pound could be sold for $6.40. What should be done with the beef, and why? If required, round final answers to two decimal places. The beef should be processed further since the sales price will increase by $??? per pound and the cost only increase by $???? per pound.
Your Corporation processes sugar beets in batches. A batch of sugar beets costs $625 to buy from farmers and $275 to crush in the company's plant. Two intermediate products, beet fiber (750 units) and beet juice (250 units), emerge from the crushing process. The beet fiber can be sold as is for $20 or processed further for $18 to make the end product industrial fiber that is sold for $45. The beet juice can be sold as is for $42 or processed further for $24 to make the end product refined sugar that is sold for $62. How much more profit (loss) does the company make by processing one batch of sugar beets into the end products industrial fiber and refined sugar? Group of answer choices $3,975 $6,000 $4,250 ($4,250) $5,250

Quality Clothing, Inc., produces skorts and jumper uniforms for school children. In the process of cutting out the cloth pleces for each product, a certain amount of scrap cloth is produced. Quality has been selling this cloth scrap to Jorge's Scrap Warehouse for $3.30 p pound. Last year, the company sold 42,000 lb. of scrap, which would be enough to make 10,500 teddy bears that the management of Quality is now interested in producing. Their processes would need some reprogramming, particularly in the cutting and stitching processes, but it would require no additional worker training. However, new packaging would be needed. The total variable cost to produce the teddy bears $3.80. Fixed costs would increase by $93,000 per year for the lease of the packaging equipment and Quality estimates it could produce and sell 10,500 teddy bears per year. Finished teddy bears could be sold for $18.00 each. Calculate the effect on operating Income. Round your answers to the nearest dollar. Sell at…
Lim has already spent $30,700 to manufacture a hamster food product called Pet Health. Lim currently has 10,000 bags of Pet Health on hand that can be sold for $94,480.

Wilkin Fruit Drink Company planned to make 400,000 containers of apple juice. It expected to use two cups of frozen apple concentrate to make each container of juice, thus using 800,000 cups (400,000 containers x 2 cups) of frozen concentrate. The standard price of one cup of apple concentrate is $0.25. Actually, Wilkin produced 404,000 containers of apple juice and purchased and used 820,000 cups of concentrate at $0.26 per cup. Required a. Complete the spreadsheet template to calculate price and usage variances. Spreadsheet Tips 2. The cells that label the variances as F or U (favorable (F) or unfavorable (U)) are based on a function called IF. The IF function is needed because the variance can be either favorable or unfavorable. The formula must determine whether actual expenditures exceed budgeted expenditures to determine whether the variance is unfavorable or favorable. As an example, the formula in cell D22 is =IF(B21>E21,"U","F"). The formula evaluates the expression B21>E21.…
4,000 spindles of yarn are produced. The spindles of yarn can then be sold directly to stores or they can be used by Austin Wool Products to make afghans. Each spindle of yarn sells for $12; variable costs are $8 to make a spindle of yarn, and fixed costs to make 4,000 spindles of yarn total $8,000. The yarn can also be used to make afghans. Each afghan sells for $32 and requires one and a quarter (1.25) spindles of yarn. The additional costs incurred to make afghans from yarn include $9 per afghan in variable costs, and $20,000 in additional fixed costs. a. In order to maximize profits, should Austin sell the spindles of yarn or further process the yarn into afghans? How much operating income would Austin generate on a monthly basis by following your suggestion?
Greener Garden Group produces and sells 21,200 litres of organic lawn and garden fertilizer. The fertilizer, GoGrow, is a favourite among landscaping companies in southern Manitoba. The selling price of GoGrow is $16 per litre, variable costs are $9 per litre, fixed manufacturing overhead costs in the plant total $121,900 per month, and the fixed selling costs total $164,300 per month. Recent supply chain problems have made it difficult for the Greener Garden Group to get the quantity of chemicals needed to produce the fertilizer. Because of this, sales have dropped to 6,360 litres per month and will most likely stay at this level until the supply of chemicals is back to normal. Management expects that the supply chain issues will ease up soon with business returning to normal in two months. However, the CEO of Greener Garden Group thinks the company should fully shut down operations for two months until the supply chain issues are resolved. If the Greener Garden Group does close the…
Dairyplus processes organic milk into plain yogurt. Dairyplus sells plain yogurt to hospitals, nursing homes, and restaurants in bulk, one-gallon containers. Each batch, processed at a cost of $890, yields 540 gallons of plain yogurt. The company sells the one-gallon tubs for $7.00 each and spends $0.16 for each plastic tub. Dairyplus has recently begun to reconsider its strategy. Management wonders if it would be more profitable to sell individual-sized portions of fruited organic yogurt at local food stores. Dairyplus could further process each batch of plain yogurt into 11,520 individual portions (3/4 cup each) of fruited yogurt. A recent market analysis indicates that demand for the product exists. Dairyplus would sell each individual portion for $0.40. Packaging would cost $0.05 per portion, and fruit would cost $0.10 per portion. Fixed costs would not change. Should Dairyplus continue to sell only the gallon-sized plain yogurt (sell as is) or convert the plain yogurt…
Tommy Tomato, Incorporated (TTI) sells organic canned tomato sauces. TTI spends $50,000 purchasing, cutting, washing, grinding, and straining tomatoes into 100,000 liters of plain tomato sauce ($0.50 per liter). At this point, TTI has two choices: a) sell the plain tomato sauce for $2 per liter; or b.) take the 100,000 liters of plain tomato sauce and process them further into a gourmet seasoned pizza sauce that can be sold for $3.10 per liter. The extra seasoning and processing required to convert the plain tomato sauce into gourmet pizza sauce costs TTI $0.75 per liter. TTI can choose to sell the plain tomato sauce as-is at the "split-off point" or decide to process the sauce further into the gourmet sauce. 1. If TTI sells the 100,000 liters of gourmet pizza sauce, how much sales revenue will TTI generate? If TTI decides to simply sell the 100,000 liters of plain tomato sauce without processing it any further, how much sales revenue would TTI generate instead? How much additional…
