Cathy and Tom's Specialty Ice Cream Company operates a small production facility for the local community. The facility has the capacity to make 19,200 gallons of the single flavor, GUI Chewy, annually. The plant has only two customers, Chuck's Gas & Go and Marcee's Drive & Chew DriveThru. Annual orders for Chuck's total 9,600 gallons and annual orders for Marcee's total 4,800 gallons. Variable manufacturing costs are $.70 per gallon, and annual fixed manufacturing costs are $28,800. The ice cream business has two seasons, summer and winter. Each season lasts exactly six months. Chuck's orders 4,800 gallons in the summer and 4,800 gallons in the winter. Marcee's is closed in the winter and orders all 4,800 gallons in the summer. In discussing their business, Cathy and Tom realize that there are really three seasons instead of two, the third being the fall and spring (as a combined season).
