product follow:

The same raw material is used in all three products and costs $6 per kilogram. Barlow Company has only 5,000 kilograms
of material on
hand and will not be able to obtain any more material for several weeks due to a strike in its supplier's plant. Management is trying to decide
which product(s) to concentrate on next week in filling its backlog of orders. Direct labour costs $12 per hour.
Required:
1. Compute the amount of contribution margin that will be obtained per kilogram of material used in each product.
2. Which orders would you recommend that the company work on next week-the orders for product A, product B, or product C? Show
computations.
3. A foreign supplier could furnish Barlow with additional stocks of the raw material at a substantial premium over the usual price. If there
is unfilled demand for all three products, what is the highest price that Barlow Company should be willing to pay for an additional
kilogram of materials?
4. Assume that direct labour becomes a constraint instead of direct materials. How will your answer to Requirement (2) above change?

These are real (inflation-adjusted) cash flows. The beta for producing wells is 0.91. The market risk premium is 9%, the nominal risk-free interest rate is 7%, and expected inflation is 3%. The two wells are intended to develop a previously discovered oil field. Unfortunately there is still a 21% chance of a dry hole in each case. A dry hole means zero cash flows and a complete loss of the $10.1 million investment. Ignore taxes and make further assumptions as necessary. a.
