Calcion Industries produces two joint products, Y and Z. Prior to the split-off point, the company incurred costs of $31,000. Product Y weighs 15 pounds and product Z weighs 85 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. Product Y allocation $______ Product Z allocation $______
GG Products, Ic., prepares tips and stems from a joint process using asparagus. It produced 290,000 units of tips having a sales value at the split-off point of $77,000. It produced 290,000 units of stems having a sales value at split-off of $33,000. Using the net realizable value method, the portion of the total joint product costs allocated to tips was $48,300. Required: Compute the total joint product costs before allocation. (Do not round intermediate calculations.) Total cost

Lawn Products produces two products (X and Y) and a by-product (Z) from a joint process using a raw material (Alpha). The company chooses to allocate the costs on the basis of the physical quantities method. Last month, it processed 23,000 pounds of Alpha at a total cost of $99,000. The output of the process consisted of 28,800 units of product X, 35,200 units of product Y, and 7,100 units of by-product Z. By-product Z can be sold for $12,000. This is considered to be its net realizable value, which is deducted from the processing costs of the main products. Required: What amount of joint costs should be assigned to each of product X and product Y? Product X Product Y Joint Costs
After allocating the joint process costs to its two joint products, Allomar Co. reports gross margin percentages of 30% for Product A and 40% for Product B. Sales reported for each product were $25,000 for Product A and $60,000 for Product B. Neither of the two products were processed beyond the split-off point. Calculate the total amount of joint costs assigned between the two products. Allocated joint costs Product A Product B Assuming Allomar used the physical quantities method to allocate the joint costs, what percentage of the total production volume did Product B represent? (Round answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. 15.25%.) Proportion of joint costs assigned to product B %
Chemical Corporation produces liquid chemicals A and B from a joint process. Joint costs are allocated on the basis of relative sales value at split-off. It costs $4,560 to process 500 gallons of Product A and 1,000 gallons of Product B to the split-off point. The market value at split-off is $10 per gallon for Product A and $14 for Product B. Product B requires an additional process beyond split-off at a cost of $2 per gallon before it can be sold. What is Chemical's cost to produce 1,000 gallons of Product B? Choose...

Assume a company has two products—A and B—that emerge from a joint process. Product A has been allocated $24,000 of the total joint costs of $48,000. A total of 2,000 units of Product A are produced from the joint process. Product A can be sold at the split-off point for $16 per unit, or it can be processed further for an additional total cost of $14,800 and then sold for $25 per unit. What is the financial advantage (disadvantage) of further processing Product A? Multiple Choice $(3,200) $3,200 $(22,000) $22,000
PT Y manufactures three products using the same production process. The costs incurred up to the split-off point are $200,000. The company decided to further process the three products before they were sold. The number of units produced (based on regular sales), the selling prices per unit of the three products at the split-off point and after further processing, and the additional processing costs are as follows. Product D E F Number of Units Produced 4,000 6,000 2,000 Selling Price at Split-Off Additional Processing Costs Selling Price after Processing $25.00 $26.60 $34.40 $14,000 $20,000 $9,000 $30.00 $31.20 $37.60 Instructions 1) Allocate the $200,000 joint cost to product D, E, and F using these methods: a. Physical-measure method (2%) b. NRV method (5%) 2) Which information is relevant to the decision on whether or not to process the products further? (2%). Explain why this information is relevant (2%). 3) Which product(s) should be processed further and which should be sold at…
