- 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.arrow_forwardMangia Pizza Company makes frozen pizzas that are sold through grocery stores. Mangia developed the following standard mix for spreading on premade pizza shells to produce 16 giant-size sausage pizzas. Mangia put a batch of 2,000 pounds of direct materials (enough for 800 frozen sausage pizzas) into process. Of the total, 700 pounds were tomato sauce, 840 pounds were cheese, and the remaining 460 pounds were sausage. The actual yield was 780 pizzas. Required: 1. Calculate the standard mix (SM) in pounds for tomato sauce, for cheese, and for sausage. 2. Calculate the mix variance. 3. Calculate the actual proportion used of tomato sauce, cheese, and sausage. Use these results to explain the direction (favorable or unfavorable) of the mix variance. 4. What if of the total 2,000 pounds of ingredients put into process, 700 pounds were tomato sauce, 700 pounds were cheese, and 600 pounds were sausage? How would that affect the mix variance?arrow_forwardPharmaco Corporation buys three chemicals that are processed to produce two popular ingredients for liquid pain relievers. The three chemicals are in liquid form. The purchased chemicals are blended for two to three hours and then heated for 15 minutes. The results of the process are two separate ingredients, PR1 and PR2. For every 4,300 gallons of chemicals used, 2,000 gallons of each pain reliever are produced. The pain relievers are sold to companies that process them into their final form. The selling prices are 34 per gallon for PR1 and 45 per gallon for PR2. The costs to produce one batch (containing 2,000 gallons of each chemical) are as follows: The pain relievers are bottled in five-gallon plastic containers and shipped. The cost of each container is 2.10. The costs of shipping are 0.50 per container. Pharmaco Corporation could process PR1 further by mixing it with inert powders and flavoring to form tablets. The tablets can be sold directly to retail drug stores as a generic brand. If this route is taken, the revenue received per case of tablets would be 13.50, with eight cases produced by every gallon of PR 1. The costs of processing into tablets total 11.00 per gallon of PR1. Packaging costs 5.16 per case. Shipping costs are 1.68 per case. Required: 1. Should Pharmaco sell PR1 at split-off, or should PR1 be processed and sold as tablets? 2. If Pharmaco normally sells 26,000 gallons of PR1 per year, what will be the difference in profits if PR1 is processed further?arrow_forward
- Strawberry Sweet Company makes a variety of jams and jellies. During June, 55,000 gallons of strawberry mash was processed at a joint cost of $40,000. This produced 42,000 gallons of preserve-grade mix and 4,000 gallons of Strawberry juice for jelly. The juice could be processed further into energy drinks, and the preserve mix could be processed further into ice cream flavoring. Information on these items is shown: A. Assume that the joint cost is allocated to the products based on the physical quantity of output of each product. How much joint cost should be assigned to each product? B. How much joint cost should be assigned to each product if the relative sales value allocation method is used? C.
