viii. 1,950 bushels of fresh apples production to count × $9.10 = $17,745.00 value of the fresh apple production to count; 1,000 bushels of harvested marketable processing apple production to count × $4.76 price election = $4,760.00 value of the processing apple production to count;

E. $17,745.00 value of the fresh apple production to count + $4,760.00 value of the processing apple production to count = $22,505.00 total value of production to count;
