The head administrator of Cumberland County Senior Services, Judith Ewa, is concerned about the organization's finances and considers the operating income of $5,600 last year to be razor-thin (Last year's results were very similar to the results for previous years and are representative of what would be expected in the future.) She feels that the organization should be building its financial reserves at a more rapid rate in order to prepare for the next inevitable recession. After seeing the above report. Ewa asked for more information about the financial advisability of discontinuing the housekeeping program. The depreciation in the housekeeping category is for a small van that is used to carry the housekeepers and their equipment from job to job. If the program were discontinued, the van would be donated to a charitable organization. Depreciation charges assume zero salvage value. None of the general administrative overhead would be avoided if the housekeeping program were dropped, but the liability insurance and the salary of the program administrator would be avoided.

The wholesalers then cut the paper into standard-sized sheets and package it in 2-kilogram packages. These packages are sold to printers for $4 per package. There is no waste in the cutting process. Fraser Paper currently produces 5 million kilograms of paper annually at a fixed cost of $1 million and a variable cost of $0.80 per kilogram. If Fraser bypassed the wholesalers and cut its own paper for sale directly to printers, Fraser would have to add equipment and personnel with an annual fixed cost of $650,000. Incremental variable costs would be $0.10 per kilogram. Required: 1-a. Calculate the annual profit from further processing. (Enter your answer in whole dollars, not in millions.)
