Freshwater, Inc. produces drinking water from saltwater through a desalination process. Salt, a byproduct of the process, can be sold. Both products are fully processed at the split-off point. There are no separable costs. For September, the cost to desalinate 326,000 gallons of seawater was $97,500. Production and sales data are as follows: Measure Production Sales Sales price Drinking water Gallons 325,000 300,000 $0.75 225,000 Salt Pounds 10,000 6,500 0.50 3,250 There were no beginning inventories at 9/1.

A triple-effect evaporator is a process that removes pure water from a salt water feed. The process consists of three units connected in series. The feed to the process contains 3.43 wt % NaCl in water. In the first effect, sufficient water is evaporated to concentrate the solution to 3.89 wt % NaCl. The second effect concentrates the solution further to 4.22 wt %, and the brine discharged from the process contains 5.02 wt % NaCl. a. Draw a diagram...
