    It is more profitable to continue processing.

    Explanation:

    Giving the following information:

    Ahngram Corp. has 1,000 cartons of oranges that cost $44 per carton in direct costs and $25.00 per carton in indirect costs and sold for $64 per carton. The oranges can be processed further into orange juice at an additional cost of $21.00 and sold for $114.

    First, we need to calculate the income before processing and then the income after processing:

    Before processing:

    Income = 1,000 * (64 - 44 - 25) = - $5,000

    After processing:

    Income = 1,000 * (114 - 69 - 21) = $24,000

    It is more profitable to continue processing.
