(Click the icon to view additional information.) Should Organicfood continue to sell only the gallon-size plain yogurt (sell as is) or convert the plain yogurt into individual-size portions of fruited yogurt (process further)? Why? (Use a minus sign or parentheses for amounts that are typically shown enclosed in parentheses in a sell or process further decision.) More info Organicfood sells plain yogurt to hospitals, nursing homes, and restaurants in bulk, one-gallon containers. Each batch, processed at a cost of $890, yields 900 gallons of plain yogurt. Organicfood sells the one-gallon tubs for $4 each, and spends $0.10 for each plastic tub. Organicfood has recently begun to reconsider its strategy. Organicfood wonders if it would be more profitable to sell individual-size portions of fruited organic yogurt at local food stores. Organicfood could further process each batch of plain yogurt into 19,200 individual portions (3/4 cup each) of fruited yogurt. A recent market analysis indicates that demand for the product exists. Organicfood would sell each individual portion for $0.52. Packaging would cost $0.14 per portion, and fruit would cost $0.14 per portion. Fixed costs would not change
