Required information [The following information applies to the questions displayed below.) Conroy Company manufactures two products --B100 and A200. The company provided the following information with respect to these products: Estimated customer demand (in units) Selling price per unit Variable expenses per unit B100 2,800 1,200 700 1200 2,000 $2,100 $1,200 The company has four manufacturing departments-Fabrication, Molding, Machining, and Assemble & Pack. The capacity available in each department (in hours) and the demands that one unit of each of the company's products makes on those departments is as follows: B100 hours per unit) A200 (hours per unit) Fabrication Molding Machining Assemble Capacity (in hours) 4,000 6,000 5,000 4,500 The company is trying to decide what product mix will maximize profits. Given that its fixed costs will not change regardless of the chosen mix, the company plans to identify the product mix that maximizes its total contribution margin.
