South Atlantic Chemical Company manufactures industrial chemicals in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The company plans to introduce a new chemical solution and needs to develop a standard product cost. The new chemical solution is made by combining a chemical compound (nyclyn) and a solution (salex), heating the mixture, adding a second compound (protet), and bottling the resulting solution in 12-liter containers. The initial mix, which is 13 liters in volume, consists of 14 kilograms of nyclyn and 11.6 liters of salex. A 1-liter reduction in volume occurs during the boiling process. The solution is cooled slightly before 7 kilograms of protet are added. The addition of protet does not affect the total liquid volume.

The purchase price of the direct materials used in the manufacture of this new chemical solution are given below. (The real, abbreviated R$, is Brazil’s national currency. On the day this problem was written, one real was equivalent to 0.270 U. S. dollar.)

Nyclyn R$5.85/kg
Salex R$6.90/liter
Protet R$8.70/kg

Determine the standard material cost of 15 liter container of new product.
