An alternative is to produce a "finished cut" at a total processing cost of $523 per hbf, which can be sold for $668 per hbf. Prepare a differential analysis dated August 9 on whether to sell rough-cut lumber (Alternative 1) or process further into finished-cut lumber (Alternative 2).

Answer and Explanation:

The preparation of the differential analysis is presented below:

Particulars    Sell Rough cut    Process             Differential

                     (Alternative 1)     Further into           Effect on income

                                                Finished cut        (Alternative 2)

                                            (Alternative 2)

Revenues

per 100 board feet     $540     $668              $128

Cost per $100

Board ft                      -$402     -$523           -$121

Income

or loss

per 100 board             $138      $145               $7

In the case when the product would get process further so there is an increase in revenue by $7
