More info

Naturalplus sells plain yogurt to hospitals, nursing homes, and restaurants in bulk,

one$-$gallon containers. Each batch, processed at a cost of $$800,$ yields $1,200$

gallons of plain yogurt. Naturalplus sells the one$-$gallon tubs for $$8$ each, and

spends $$0\mathrm{.}12$ for each plastic tub. Naturalplus has recently begun to reconsider its

strategy. Naturalplus wonders if it would be more profitable to sell individual$-$size

portions of fruited organic yogurt at local food stores. Naturalplus could further

process each batch of plain yogurt into $25,600$ individual portions $(3/4$ cup each$)$ of

fruited yogurt. A recent market analysis indicates that demand for the product

exists. Naturalplus would sell each individual portion for $$0\mathrm{.}52.$ Packaging would

cost $$0\mathrm{.}15$ per portion, and fruit would cost $$0\mathrm{.}14$ per portion. Fixed costs would

not change.
