Sell or Process Further

Abica Coffee Company produces Columbian coffee in batches of 6,000 pounds. The standard quantity of materials required in the process is 6,000 pounds, which cost $5.00 per pound. Columbian coffee can be sold without further processing for $8.40 per pound. Columbian coffee can also be processed further to yield Decaf Columbian, which can be sold for $10.00 per pound. The processing into Decaf Columbian requires additional processing costs of $10,250 per batch. The additional processing will also cause a 6% loss of product due to evaporation.
