Sales revenue $55,320 (6,000 * $9.22) $67,716 (5,700 * $11.88
Costs:
Cost of product 33,000 (6,000 * $5.50) 33,000 (6,000 * $5.50)
Batch cost 10,230
Evaporation loss 1,650
Total costs $33,000 $44,880

b. Rise N' Shine should process further before selling Decaf Columbian.
c. If the price of Decaf Columbian coffee were $11.79 ($11.88 - $516/5,700), it will cause neither an advantage nor a disadvantage for processing the Columbian coffee further.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Total quantity of materials required = 6,000 pounds
Cost price of each pound = $5.50
Selling price of Columbian coffee without further processing = $9.22
Selling price of Decaf Columbian coffee with further processing = $11.88
Costs of additional processing:
Batch cost = $10,230
Evaporation loss = 5% of 6,000 (300) = $1,650
