Differential Analysis for Further Processing
The management of Dominican Sugar Company is considering whether to process
further raw sugar into refined sugar. Refined sugar can be sold for $2.20 per pound, and
raw sugar can be sold without further processing for $1.40 per pound. Raw sugar is
produced in batches of 42,000 pounds by processing 100,000 pounds of sugar cane,
which costs $0.35 per pound of cane. Refined sugar will require additional processing
costs of $0.50 per pound of raw sugar, and 1.25 pounds of raw sugar will produce 1
pound of refined sugar.
Required:
1. Prepare a differential analysis as of March 24 to determine whether to sell raw sugar
(Alternative 1) or process further into refined sugar (Alternative 2).

The standard quantity of materials required in the process is 6,000 pounds, which cost $5.50 per pound. Columbian coffee can be sold without further processing for $9.22 per pound. Columbian coffee can also be processed further to yield Decaf Columbian, which can be sold for $11.88 per pound. The processing into Decaf Columbian requires additional processing costs of $10,230 per batch. The additional processing also causes a 5% loss of product due to evaporation. a.
