Explanation:
Calculation to determine what the decision that Farina should make and the reason is
First step is to calculate the Special scoops
Special scoops = 20,000 bags x ($7 - $1.50) - $20,000
Special scoops =20,000 bags x$5.5-$20,000
Special scoops =$110,000-$20,000
Special scoops = $90,000
Second step is to calculate the Prime scoops
Prime scoops = 15,000 bags x $8 + 10,000 bags x $6 - (20,000 bags x $1.50 + $20,000 + $3,000)
Prime scoops =$120,000+$60,000-($30,000+$20,000+$3,000)
Prime scoops = $180,000 - $53,000
Prime scoops = $127,000
Now let calculate the Profit increase
Profit increase =$127,000 - $90,000
Profit increase= $37,000
Therefore the decision that Farina should make and the reason is: PROCESS SPECIAL SCOOPS FURTHER INTO PRIME SCOOPS AND CANINE SPORTS TO INCREASE PROFITS BY $37,000.
