Answer:

  • Sale value as of now = $10.000
  • Further processing cost = $3.000
  • Sales value after further processing = $14.000

Explanation:

Step 1. Given information.

The following are the relevant  amounts:

  • Sale value as of now = $10.000
  • Further processing cost = $3.000
  • Sales value after further processing = $14.000

As exception:

  • Amount $8000 is irrelevent for decision since it has already been incurred. Its shunk cost. Whether product is further processed or not its not going to make any impact on profit/loss.

Step 2. Formulas needed to solve the exercise.

Profit = sales value after further processing - sales value of now - further processing cost.

Step 3. Calculation and Step 4. Solution.

Profit = (14.000-10.000)-3.000 = 1.000

Further processing will give extra $1000 profit.

Hence, its should be processed further.
