The margin under alternate production schedule B is:
($9.60 x 11,676) + ($8.40 x 2,335) + ($9.52 x 9,341 ) – ($1.80 x 23,352) – $85,000
= $112,089.60 + $19,614 + $88,926.32 – $42,033.60 – $85,000 = $93,596.32
Therefore, current production schedule A yields a higher operating profit of $103,600 versus $93,596.32 for schedule B.
