[The following information applies to the questions displayed below.]

Cane Company manufactures two products called Alpha and Beta that sell for $135 and $95, respectively. Each product uses only one type of raw material that costs $6 per pound. The company has the capacity to annually produce 105,000 units of each product. Its average cost per unit for each product at this level of activity are given below:

	Alpha				Beta
Direct materials		$	30			$	18
Direct labor			23				16
Variable manufacturing overhead			10				8
Traceable fixed manufacturing overhead			19				21
Variable selling expenses			15				11
Common fixed expenses			18				13
Total cost per unit		$	115			$	87

The company considers its traceable fixed manufacturing overhead to be avoidable, whereas its common fixed expenses are unavoidable and have been allocated to products based on sales dollars.

13. Assume that Canes customers would buy a maximum of 83,000 units of Alpha and 63,000 units of Beta. Also assume that the companys raw material available for production is limited to 200,000 pounds. How many units of each product should Cane produce to maximize its profits?

14. Assume that Canes customers would buy a maximum of 83,000 units of Alpha and 63,000 units of Beta. Also assume that the companys raw material available for production is limited to 200,000 pounds. What is the maximum contribution margin Cane Company can earn given the limited quantity of raw materials?

15. Assume that Canes customers would buy a maximum of 83,000 units of Alpha and 63,000 units of Beta. Also assume that the companys raw material available for production is limited to 200,000 pounds. If Cane uses its 200,000 pounds of raw materials, up to how much should it be willing to pay per pound for additional raw materials? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
