The Becton Enterprises (BE) produces a gasoline additive, Charger Power. This product
increases engine efficiency and improves gasoline mileage by creating a more complete
burn in the combustion process. Careful controls are required during the production
process to insure that the proper mix of input chemicals is achieved and that evaporation
is controlled. Loss of output and efficiency may result if the controls are not effective.
The standard cost of producing a 500-liter batch of Charger Power is $135. The standard
materials mix and related standard cost of each chemical used in a 500-liter batch are:
