Underground Food Store has 6,000 pounds of raw beef nearing its expiration date. Each pound has a cost of $4.40. The beef could be sold "as is" for $3.00 per pound to the dog food processing plant, or roasted and sold in the deli. The cost of roasting the beef will be $2.70 per pound, and each pound could be sold for $6.50. What should be done with the beef, and why? If required, round final answers to two decimal places. The beef should be processed further since the sales price increases by s per pound and the cost only increases by $ per pound
