The VP of Operations of Cadman Foods faces the decision of having to allocate three million pounds of tomatoes to the production of canned whole tomatoes, tomato juice or tomato paste. Subsequent to that decision, the VP needs to determine whether to acquire 80,000 pounds of additional “A” quality tomatoes at $0.425 per pound. Bill Cooper, the Controller at Cadman Foods has recommended that Cadman produce the maximum quantity of canned whole tomatoes based on Dan Tuckers assessment of the tomato crop. By logical extrapolation, this would result in the remainder of the crop being allocated to the production of tomato paste. Charles Myers, the Sales Manager at Cadman has recommended that instead, 2/3 of the tomato crop be used in the production of tomato paste while the remaining crop should be used in the production of tomato juice. Mr. Meyers arrived at his recommendation based on cost ratio derived on the basis of quality of tomato crop and marginal profit.…
