Walters Company is considering producing 120,000 pounds of paperclips and 140,000 pounds of staples each month from their current production of grade A and grade B wiring. The following are the expenditures to date:
Jan. 1 $100,000 Bulk steel purchase
Jan. 2 – Feb. 15 $150,000 Cost to melt sand
Feb. 16 – Mar. 31 $200,000 Cost to mold steel into wires, polish wires and wrap around large bolts
April 1 $3.00/pound market price for grade A wires
$4.00/pound market price for grade B wire
Grade A wire requires $450,000 of monthly variable costs to process into staples which can be sold in the market on 5/1/XX for $7.00 per pound. Grade B wire requires $600,000 of monthly variable costs to process into paperclips, which can be sold in the market on 5/1/XX for $8.00 per pound.
