Taylor Company produces two industrial cleansers that use the same liquid chemical input: Pocolimpio and Maslimpio. Pocolimpio uses two quarts of the chemical for every unit produced, and Maslimpio uses five quarts. Currently, Taylor has 6,000 quarts of the material in inventory. All of the material is imported. For the coming year, Taylor plans to import 6,000 quarts to produce 1,000 units of Pocolimpio and 2,000 units of Maslimpio. The detail of each products unit contribution margin is as follows: Taylor Company has received word that the source of the material has been shut down by embargo. Consequently, the company will not be able to import the 6,000 quarts it planned to use in the coming years production. There is no other source of the material. Required: 1. Compute the total contribution margin that the company would earn if it could import the 6,000 quarts of the material. 2. Determine the optimal usage of the companys inventory of 6,000 quarts of the material. Compute the total contribution margin for the product mix that you recommend. 3. Assume that Pocolimpio uses three direct labor hours for every unit produced and that Maslimpio uses two hours. A total of 6,000 direct labor hours is available for the coming year. a. Formulate the linear programming problem faced by Taylor Company. To do so, you must derive mathematical expressions for the objective function and for the materials and labor constraints. b. Solve the linear programming problem using the graphical approach. c. Compute the total contribution margin produced by the optimal mix.

Betram Chemicals Company processes a number of chemical compounds used in producing industrial cleaning products. One compound is decomposed into two chemicals: anderine and dofinol. The cost of processing one batch of compound is $75,000, and the result is 6,200 gallons of anderine and 8,200 gallons of dofinol. Betram Chemicals can sell the anderine at split-off for $11.00 per gallon and the dofinol for $6.65 per gallon. Alternatively, the anderine can be processed further at a cost of $8.90 per gallon (of anderine) into cermine. It takes 2 gallons of anderine for every gallon of cermine. A gallon of cermine sells for $59. 2. What if the production of anderine into cermine required additional purchasing and quality inspection activity? Every 540 gallons of anderine that undergo further processing require 20 more purchase orders at $12 each and 13 more quality inspection hours at $22 each. Which alternative would be better and by how much?NOTE: Round interim calculations and your final…

GETSNYA manufactures two industrial products in a joint process. In January, 10,000 gallons of input costing P120,000 were processed at a cost of P300,000. The joint process resulted in 8,000 pounds of Product One and 2,000 pounds of Product Two. Product One sells at P50 per pound and Product Two sells for P100 per pound. Management generally processes each of these chemicals further to produce more refined chemical products. Product One is processed separately at a cost of P10 per pound, the resulting product sells for P70 per pound. Product Two is processed separately at a cost of P30 per pound, the resulting product sells for P190 per pound.Assuming that management is considering an opportunity to process Product Two into a new product. The separable processing will cost P80 per pound. Packaging costs for the new product is projected to be P12 per pound, and anticipated sales price is P260 per pound. Should Product Two be processed further into a new product? a. Yes, because…
