The second is responsible for packaging and freeze drying the dinners. The dinners are sold by the case, each case containing 25 dinners.

The company does not separate fixed and --Support Departments-- Overhead costs Maintanence ----Producing Departments---- Power $340,000 Cooking $75,000 Pack & Freeze Dry Machine hours $200,000 $55,000 40,000 Kilowatt-hours 40,000 20,000 20,000 Direct labor hours 100,000 80,000 5,000 30,000 The predetermined overhead rate for cooking is computed on the basis of machine hours; direct labor hours are used for packaging and freeze drying.

It takes 2 machine hours to produce a case of dinners in the cooking department and 0.5 direct labor hours to process a case of standard dinners in the packaging and freeze-drying department. Recently, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has requested a bid on a three-year contract that would supply standard freeze-dried dinners to disaster relief victims. FEMA has decided that providing freeze-dried dinners was the most economical way to supply food for these victims at a moments notice (within 24 hours). The bidding policy of Halliburton Foods is full manufacturing costs plus 20%. Assume that the lowest bid of other competitors is $48.80 per case. Required: 1.
