A manufacturer of breakfast cereals has the opportunity to purchase barley at $3.00 a bushel for 10,000 bushels, if it also buys 5000 bushels of wheat at $16.00 per bushel. However, the manufacturer does not use any barley in its products, and currently needs 20,000 bushels of wheat. If the current market price of barley is $3.80 per bushel, and wheat is $15.80 per bushel, should this opportunity be taken, and why?
◦ Because the opportunity does not meet the company's need for wheat, the opportunity should not be taken.
◦ Because the value of the opportunity is negative the opportunity should not be taken.
◦ Because the value of the opportunity is positive, the opportunity should be taken.
◦ Because the company has no need of barley, the opportunity should not be taken.
