Edmonton Chemical Company manufactures two industrial chemicalproducts in a joint process. In May, 16,000 gallons of inputcosting $67,000 were processed at a cost of $161,000. The jointprocess resulted in 12,000 pounds of Resoline and 4,000 pounds ofKrypto. Resoline sells for $20 per pound, and Krypto sells for $40per pound. Management generally processes each of these chemicalsfurther in separable processes to produce more refined chemicalproducts. Resoline is processed separately at a cost of $6 perpound. The resulting product, Resolite, sells for $34 per pound.Krypto is processed separately at a cost of $5 per pound. Theresulting product, Kryptite, sells for $51 per pound.

2. Edmontonâs management is considering an opportunity toprocess Kryptite further into a new product called Omega. Theseparable processing will cost $39 per pound. Packaging costs forOmega are projected to be $7 per pound, and the anticipated salesprice is $90 per pound. Calculate the incremental profit or lossfrom processing Kryptite into Omega.
