L Corp. produces exterior latex paint, which it sells in one-gallon containers. The company has two processing departments-Base Fab and Finishing. White paint, which is used as the base for all the company's paints, is mixed from raw ingredients in the Base Fab Department. Pigments are added to the basic white paint, the pigmented paint is squirted under pressure into one-gallon containers, and the containers are labeled and packed for shipping in the Finishing Department. Information relating to the company's operations for April follows:
