A company puts four products through a common production process.This process costs $100,000 each year.The four products can be sold when they emerge from this process at the "split-off point," or processed further and then sold.Data about the four products for the coming period are: Determine which products should be sold at the split-off point and which should be processed further.

Bricktan Inc.makes three products,basic,classic,and deluxe.The maximum Bricktan can sell is 75,000 units of basic,420,000 units of classic,and 120,000 units of deluxe.Bricktan has limited production capacity of 90,000 hours.It can produce 10 units of basic,8 units of classic,and 4 units of deluxe per hour.Contribution margin per unit is $15 for the basic,$25 for the classic,and $55 for the deluxe.What is the total contribution margin if Bricktan chooses the most profitable sales mix?

A company has already incurred a $55,000 cost in partially producing its three products.Their selling prices when partially and fully processed are shown in the following table with the additional costs necessary to finish their processing.Based on this information,should any products be processed further? $\begin{array} { c c c c } & \text { Unifinished } & \text { Finished } & \text { Further } \\\text { Product } & \text { Selling Price } & \text { Selling Price } & \text { Processing Costs } \\\text { A } & \$ 72 & \$ 108 & \$35 \\\text { B } & 83 & 124 & 42 \\\text { C } & 94 & 141 & 45\end{array}$

Variations Company had the following results of operations for the past year: A foreign company offers to buy 700 units at $4 per unit.In addition to variable manufacturing costs,there would be an export cost of $0.30 per unit.Prepare an analysis of this additional business to show whether Variations should take this order.
