M1 IND1. A firm is currently manufacturing and selling a product using Process X that has a variable cost of $22.75 per unit and a selling price of $34.95 per unit. Fixed costs are $21,500. Current sales volume is 6,500 units. The firm can substantially improve the product quality by changing to Process Y which would increase the fixed cost by $14,000. Variable costs would increase to $25.65 per unit, but the volume is expected to increase to 9,200 units...

Klein Chemicals, Inc., produces a special oil-based material that is currently in short supply
Problem 6-06Klein Chemicals, Inc., produces a special oil-based material that is currently in short supply. Four of Klein's customers have already placed orders that together exceed the combined capacity of Klein's two plants. Klein's management faces the problem of deciding how many units it should supply to each customer. Because the four customers are in different industries, different prices can be charged because of the various industry pricing structures. However slightly different production costs at the two plants and varying...
