- E8-51B. Sell as is or process further (Learning Objective 7) OrganicPlus processes organic milk into plain yogurt. OrganicPlus sells plain yogurt to hospitals, nursing homes, and restaurants in bulk, one- gallon containers. Each batch, processed at a cost of $830, yields 750 gallons of plain yogurt. OrganicPlus sells the one-gallon tubs for $6.00 each and spends $0.10 for each plastic tub. Management has recently begun to reconsider its strategy. OrganicPlus wonders if it would be more profitable to sell individual-sized portions of fruited organic yogurt at local food stores. OrganicPlus could further process each batch of plain yogurt into 16,000 individual portions (3/4 cup each) of fruited yogurt. A recent market analysis indicates that demand for the product exists.

- Refer to Exercise 10.7 for data. At the end of Year 2, the manager of the Houseware Division is concerned about the divisions performance. As a result, he is considering the opportunity to invest in two independent projects. The first is called the Espresso-Pro; it is an in-home espresso maker that can brew regular coffee as well as make espresso and latte drinks. While the market for espresso drinkers is small initially, he believes this market can grow, especially around gift-giving occasions. The second is the Mini-Prep appliance that can be used to do small chopping and dicing chores that do not require a full-sized food processor. Without the investments, the division expects that Year 2 data will remain unchanged. The expected operating incomes and the outlay required for each investment are as follows: Jarriots corporate headquarters has made available up to 500,000 of capital for this division. Any funds not invested by the division will be retained by headquarters and invested to earn the companys minimum required rate of return, 9 percent. Required: 1. Compute the ROI for each investment. 2. Compute the divisional ROI (rounded to four significant digits) for each of the following four alternatives: a. The Espresso-Pro is added. b. The Mini-Prep is added. c. Both investments are added. d. Neither investment is made; the status quo is maintained. Assuming that divisional managers are evaluated and rewarded on the basis of ROI performance, which alternative do you think the divisional manager will choose?arrow_forwardQ1 Studio Inc. produces and sells software to students wishing to learn German.
