Stinehelfer Beet Processors, Inc., processes sugar beets in batches. A batch of sugar beets costs $59 to buy from farmers and $21 to crush in the company's plant. Two intermediate products, beet fiber and beet juice, emerge from the crushing process. The beet fiber can be sold as is for $35 or processed further for $27 to make the end product industrial fiber that is sold for $47. The beet juice can be sold as is for $55 or processed further for $35 to make the end product refined sugar that is sold for $81. What is the financial advantage (disadvantage) for the company from processing the intermediate product beet juice into refined sugar rather than selling it as is?
