Hanna Co. sells art supplies and also has a custom framing department. Only two employees are trained to complete custom framing orders. They place the orders for the supplies they need.

However, the financial reports for the most recent period show a substantial drop in profitability for custom framing. Upon investigation, it was determined that the supplies being used in custom framing had increased measurably. However, the sales generated did not support the amount of supplies being used.
