Sales and production information for each of the three adhesives are shown in the following table. Most of Johnston's customers ask for a special blend of the three products, which improves heat-resistance. The additional separable processing requires additional time and materials, and the price is increased accordingly, as shown in the table. Assume that Johnston pro- duces only for specific customer orders, so there is no beginning or ending inventory. Assume also that all of Johnston's customers requested the heat-resistant version of the products so that all produc- tion required additional separable processing. Total joint cost for the three products is $3,500,000. Johnston Adhesives Company makes three widely used industrial adhesives: A101 A204 B216 175,000 %$4 115,000 $.
