Roberts Corporation manufactures home cleaning products. One of the products,


Quickclean, requires 2 pounds of Material A and 5 pounds of Material B per unit
manufactured. Material A is purchased from the supplier for $0.30 per pound and
Material B is purchased for $0.50 per pound. The finished goods inventory on hand

Material A or Material B) should equal 80% of the following month's production
needs.
The production budget calls for 26,000 units of Quickclean to be manufactured in
