Karen Corp. manufactures products Y and Z from a joint process. The sales value at split-off was P50,000 for 6,000 units of Product Y and P25,000 for 2,000 units of Product Z. Assuming that the portion of the total joint costs properly allocated to Product Y using the relative sales value at split off approach was P30,000. What were the total joint costs?

LeMoyne Manufacturing Inc.’s joint cost of producing 2,000 units of Product X, 1,000 units of Product Y, and 1,000 units of Product Z is $50,000. The unit sales values of the three products at the split-off point are Product X–$30, Product Y–$100, and Product Z–$90. Ending inventories include 200 units of Product X, 300 units of Product Y, and 100 units of Product Z. Compute the amount of joint cost that would be included in the ending inventory valuation of the three products on the basis of their sales values at split-off. Assume that Product Z can be sold for $120 a unit if it is processed after split-off at a cost of $10 a unit. Compute the amount of joint cost that would be included in the ending inventory valuation of the three products on the basis of their net realizable values.
Clarion Industries produces two joint products, Y and Z. Prior to the split-off point, the company incurred costs of $36,000. Product Y weighs 25 pounds and product Z weighs 75 pounds. Product Y sells for $150 per pound and product Z sells for $125 per pound. Based on a physical measure of output, allocate joint costs to products Y and Z.
Laramie Industries produces two joint products, H and C. Prior to the split-off point, the company incurred costs of $66,000. Product H weighs 44 pounds and product C weighs 66 pounds. Product H sells for $250 per pound and product C sells for $295 per pound. Based on a physical measure of output, allocate joint costs to products H and C.
Joint cost allocation net realizable value method Natures Garden Inc. produces wood chips, wood pulp, and mulch. These products are produced through harvesting trees and sending the logs through a wood chipper machine. One batch of logsproduces 20,304 cubic yards of wood chips, 14,100 cubic yards of mulch, and 9,024 cubic yards ofwood pulp. The joint production process costs a total of 32,000 per batch. After the split-off point,wood chips are immediately sold for 25 per cubic yard while wood pulp and mulch are processedfurther. The market value of the wood pulp and mulch at the split-off point is estimated to be 22and 24 per cubic yard, respectively. The additional production process of the wood pulp costs 5per cubic yard, after which it is sold for 30 per cubic yard. The additional production process ofthe mulch costs 4 per cubic yard, after which it is sold for 32 per cubic yard. Allocate the jointcosts of production to each product using the net realizable value method.
Breegle Company produces three products (B-40, J-60, and H-102) from a single process. Breegle uses the physical volume method to allocate joint costs of 22,500 per batch to theproducts. Based on the following information, which product(s) should Breegle continue toprocess after the split-off point in order to maximize profit? a. B-40 only b. J-60 only c. H-102 only d. B-40 and H-102 only
Refer to Cornerstone Exercise 7.7. Assume that Orchard Fresh. Inc., uses the sales-value-at-split-off method of joint cost allocation and has provided the following information about the four grades of apples: Total joint cost is 18,000. Required: 1. Allocate the joint cost to the four grades of apples using the sales-value-at-split-off method. (Carry out the percent calculations to four significant digits. Round all cost allocations to the nearest dollar.) 2. What if the price at split-off of Grade B apples increased to 1.20 per pound? How would that affect the allocation of cost to Grade B apples? How would it affect the allocation of cost to the remaining grades?
Sell or Process Further, Basic Analysis Shenista Inc. produces four products (Alpha, Beta, Gamma, and Delta) from a common input. The joint costs for a typical quarter follow: The revenues from each product are as follows: Alpha, 100,000; Beta, 93,000; Gamma, 30,000; and Delta, 40,000. Management is considering processing Delta beyond the split-off point, which would increase the sales value of Delta to 75,000. However, to process Delta further means that the company must rent some special equipment that costs 15,400 per quarter. Additional materials and labor also needed will cost 8,500 per quarter. Required: 1. What is the operating profit earned by the four products for one quarter? 2. CONCEPTUAL CONNECTION Should the division process Delta further or sell it at split-off? What is the effect of the decision on quarterly operating profit?
Pacheco, Inc., produces two products, overs and unders, in a single process. The joint costs of this process were 50,000, and 14,000 units of overs and 36,000 units of unders were produced. Separable processing costs beyond the split-off point were as follows: overs, 18,000; unders, 23,040. Overs sell for 2.00 per unit; unders sell for 3.14 per unit. Required: 1. Allocate the 50,000 joint costs using the estimated net realizable value method. 2. Suppose that overs could be sold at the split-off point for 1.80 per unit. Should Pacheco sell overs at split-off or process them further? Show supporting computations.
Joint cost allocation-market value at split-off method Toil Oil processes crude oil to jointly produce gasoline, diesel, and kerosene. One batch produces 3,415 gallons of gasoline, 2,732 gallons of diesel, and 1,366 gallons of kerosene at a joint cost of 112,000. After the split-off point, all products are processed further, but the estimated market price for each product at the split-off point is as follows: Using the market value at split-off method, allocate the 12,000 joint cost of production to each product.
Product Mix Decision, Single Constraint Norton Company produces two products (Juno and Hera) that use the same material input. Juno uses two pounds of the material for every unit produced, and Hera uses five pounds. Currently, Norton has 16,000 pounds of the material in inventory. All of the material is imported. For the coming year, Norton plans to import an additional 8,000 pounds to produce 2,000 units of Juno and 4,000 units of Hera. The unit contribution margin is 30 for Juno and 60 for Hera. Also, assume that Nortons marketing department estimates that the company can sell a maximum of 2,000 units of Juno and 4,000 units of Hera. Norton has received word that the source of the material has been shut down by embargo. Consequently, the company will not be able to import the 8,000 pounds it planned to use in the coming years production. There is no other source of the material. Required: 1. Compute the total contribution margin that the company would earn if it could manufacture 2,000 units of Juno and 4,000 units of Hera. 2. Determine the optimal usage of the companys inventory of 16,000 pounds of the material. Compute the total contribution margin for the product mix that you recommend.
A company manufactures three products, L-Ten, Triol, and Pioze, from a joint process. Each production run costs 12,900. None of the products can be sold at split-off, but must be processed further. Information on one batch of the three products is as follows: Required: 1. Allocate the joint cost to L-Ten, Triol, and Pioze using the net realizable value method. (Round the percentages to four significant digits. Round all cost allocations to the nearest dollar.) 2. What if it cost 2 to process each gallon of Triol beyond the split-off point? How would that affect the allocation of joint cost to the three products?
Joint cost allocation Lovely Lotion Inc. produces three different lotions: hand, body, and foot. The lotions are produced jointly in a mixing process that costs a total of 250 per batch. At the split-off point, one batchproduces 80, 40, and 25 bottles of hand, body, and foot lotion, respectively. After the split-off point,hand lotion is sold immediately for 2.50 per bottle. Body lotion is processed further at an additional cost of 0.25 per bottle and then sold for 5.75 per bottle. Foot lotion is processed further atan additional cost of 0.85 per bottle and then sold for 4.00 per bottle. Assume that body and footlotion could be sold at the split-off point for 3.00 and 3.20 per bottle, respectively. Instructions 1. Using the market value at split-off method, allocate the joint costs of production to each product. 2. Based on the information provided and your answer to part (1), should Lovely LotionInc. continue processing body and foot lotion after the split-off point? 3. Allocate the joint costs of production to each product using the net realizable value method.
