Abstract: Cost estimates are for dry whole milk packaged in laminated foil pouches for household use. Total cost is analyzed on the basis of using either a single-pass or double-pass instantizing process. In the single-pass procedure, raw material costs accounted for an estimated 75.4 percent of total cost, while packaging costs amounted to 21.1 percent. For the double-pass process, raw materials were 69.9 percent of the total, and packaging was 19.5 percent.
