The answer to part A is non-holiday -- 35.63 and holiday -- 30.81

Mercia Chocolates produces gourmet chocolate products with no preservatives. Any production must be sold within a few days, so producing for inventory is not an option. Mercia's single plant has the capacity to make 98,000 packages of chocolate annually. Currently, Mercia sells to only two customers: Vern's Chocolates (a specialty candy store chain) and Mega Stores (a chain of department stores). Vern's orders 62,600 packages and Mega Stores orders 23,000 packages annually. Variable manufacturing costs are $26 per package, and annual fixed manufacturing costs are $618,000. The gourmet chocolate business has two seasons, holidays and non-holidays. The holiday season lasts exactly four months and the non-holiday season lasts eight months. Vern's orders the same amount each month, so Vern's orders 19,800 packages during the holidays and 42,800 packages in the non-holiday season. Mega Stores only carries Mercia's chocolates during the holidays. Required: a. Calculate the product cost for each season with excess capacity costs assigned to season in which it is incurred. b.
