It purchases cocoa beans and processes them into two intermediate products: chocolate- powder liquor base and milk-chocolate liquor base. These two intermediate products become separately identifiable at a single splitoff point. Every 900 pounds of cocoa beans yields 30 gallons of chocolate-powder liquor base and 120 gallons of milk-chocolate liquor base. The chocolate-powder liquor base is further processed into chocolate powder. Every 30 gallons of chocolate-powder liquor base yield 670 pounds of chocolate powder.
