Preston Petroleum has spent $202,000 to refine 60,000 gallons of petroleum distillate, which can be sold for $6.30 a gallon. Alternatively, Preston can process the distillate further and produce 56,000 gallons of cleaner fluid. The additional processing will cost $1.65 per gallon of distillate. The cleaner fluid can be sold for $9.20 a gallon. To sell cleaner fluid, Preston must pay a sales commission of $0.10 a gallon and transportation charge of $0.18 a gallon. Read the requirements Requirement 1. Fill in the diagram for Preston's alternatives. Revenues from selling as is Joint costs of producing 60,000 gallons of petroleum distillate Cost of Revenues from $ processing processing further further Requirement 2. Identify the sunk cost. Is the sunk cost relevant to Preston's decision? The V is a sunk cost that differ between the alternatives of selling as is or processing further. Consequently, this sunk cost is to the sell-or-process-further decision. Requirement 3. Should Preston sell the petroleum distillate or process it into cleaner fluid? Show the expected net revenue difference between the two alternatives. (Enter decreases to profits with a parentheses or minus sign. For the difference in total net revenue, use a parentheses or a minus sign if processing further will decrease total net revenue.)
