How much loss does the company make by processing


Stinehelfer Beet Processors, Inc., processes sugar beets in batches. A batch of sugar beets costs $56 to buy from farmers and $13 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 $24 or processed further for $12 to make the end product industrial fiber that is sold for $31. The beet juice can be sold as is for $43 or processed further for $29 to make the end product refined sugar that is sold for $91. How much profit (loss) does the company make by processing the intermediate product beet juice into refined sugar rather than selling it as is?
