Atwater purchases the lubricant from two suppliers, Woodlawn Petroleum and Spokane Chemicals. The quality of the final product depends directly on the quality of the lubricant. If the lubricant is "off," Atwater has to dispose of the entire batch. Because all lubricant can be "off," Atwater uses a measure it calls the “yield,” which is computed as Yield = Good output ÷ Input where the output and input are both measured in barrels.
