Question

Maxim manufactures a hamster food product called Green Health. Maxim currently has 10,000 bags of Green Health on hand. The variable production costs per bag are $1.80 and total fixed costs are $10,000. The hamster food can be sold as it is for $9.00 per bag or be processed further into Premium Green and Green Deluxe at an additional cost. The additional processing will yield 10,000 bags of Premium Green and 3,000 bags of Green Deluxe, which can be sold for $8 and $6 per bag, respectively. Assuming Maxim further processes Green Health further into Premium Green and Green Deluxe, revenue from the two products would be:

Answer 1

$98,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation to determine the revenue from the two products would be:

Revenue if processed further:

Premium Green $80,000

(10,000 bags * $8 per bag) $80,000

Add Green Deluxe (3,000 bags * $6 per bag) $18,000

Total revenue if processed further $98,000

($80,000+$18,000)

Therefore the revenue from the two products would be:$98,000
