Question:
The Turkey Farm has 2,500 pounds of Turkey liver, hearts, and gizzards approaching expiration. Each turkey costs $1.25 per pound, and the liver, hears, and gizzards weigh one-half pound (0.5 lb) per Turkey. The turkey liver, hearts, and gizzards can be sold "as is" to a pet food processing plant for $2.50 per pound, or the farm can process further and sell it as Turkey Sausage. The cost to make the sausage is $2.85 per pound and sold for $5.65 per pound. What should be done with the Turkey liver, hearts, and gizzards, sell as-is, or process further?
