Oakes Inc. manufactured 40,000 gallons of Mononate and 60,000 gallons of Beracyl in a joint production process, incurring 250,000 of joint costs. Oakes allocates joint costs based on the physical volume of each product produced. Mononate and Beracyl can each be sold at the split-off point in a semifinished state or, alternatively, processed further. Additional data about the two products are as follows: An assistant in the companys cost accounting department was overheard saying ...that when both joint and separable costs are considered, the firm has no business processing either product beyond the split-off point. The extra revenue is simply not worth the effort. Which of the following strategies should be recommended for Oakes?

Thomas Corporation produces heating units. The following values apply for a part used in their production (purchased from external suppliers): D = 12,500 Q = 250 P = 45 C = 4.50 Required: 1. For Thomas, calculate the ordering cost, the carrying cost, and the total cost associated with an order size of 250 units. 2. Calculate the EOQ and its associated ordering cost, carrying cost, and total cost. Compare and comment on the EOQ relative to the current order quantity. 3. What if Thomas enters into an exclusive supplier agreement with one supplier who will supply all of the demands with smaller, more frequent orders? Under this arrangement, the ordering cost is reduced to 0.45 per order. Calculate the new EOQ and comment on the implications.
Patz Company produces two types of machine parts: Part A and Part B, with unit contribution margins of 300 and 600, respectively. Assume initially that Patz can sell all that is produced of either component. Part A requires two hours of assembly, and B requires five hours of assembly. The firm has 300 assembly hours per week. Required: 1. Express the objective of maximizing the total contribution margin subject to the assembly-hour constraint. 2. Identify the optimal amount that should be produced of each machine part and the total contribution margin associated with this mix. 3. What if market conditions are such that Patz can sell at most 75 units of Part A and 60 units of Part B? Express the objective function with its associated constraints for this case and identify the optimal mix and its associated total contribution margin.
