resulting in higher transaction costs, lack of revenue from the weight of
dry rubber decreased by 63.19 percent of the transaction cost as well as
loss of income from the transaction cost by 15.7 percent. The solution
was to apply ammonia (NH3) and ZnO / TMTD by 1.16% of weight of the
total rubber. The ratio of the ammonia (NH3) applied was 6 of 7 solutions
used and ratio of ZnO / TMTD was 1. The respective ratio showed no
impact on the reduction in the weight of dry rubber, but profit increased
by 10.75% from the sale of latex to the factor
