The company's Accounting Department reports the following costs of producing the part at this level of activity: Direct materials. Direct labor Variable overhead Supervisor's salary Depreciation of special equipment Allocated general overhead An outside supplier has offered to produce and sell the part to the company for $20.80 each. If this offer is accepted, the supervisor's salary and all of the variable costs, including direct labor, can be avoided. The special equipment used to make the part was purchased many years ago and has no salvage value or other use. The allocated general overhead represents fixed costs of the entire company. If the outside supplier's offer were accepted, only $4,000 of these allocated general overhead costs would be avoided. If management decides to buy part Z43 from the outside supplier rather than to…
Kosakowski Corporation processes sugar beets in batches. A batch of sugar beets costs $66 to buy from farmers and $17 to crush in the company's plant. Two intermediate products, beet fiber and beet juice, emerge from the crushing process. The beet fiber can be sold as is for $23 or processed further for $13 to make the end product industrial fiber that is sold for $36. The beet juice can be sold as is for $42 or processed further for $20 to make the end product refined sugar that is sold for $84. How much more profit (loss) does the company make by processing one batch of sugar beets into the end products industrial fiber and refined sugar? Select one: a. $22 b. ($18) c. ($116) d. $4
Crane's woodworking business produces two products from its joint process: one main product (sanded and finished trim pieces) and one by-product (sawdust/shavings). The joint process has a cost of $31,000, which results in trim pieces worth $47,000 and sawdust/shavings that can be sold for $2,800. If Crane uses the production method to account for by-products, determine how much of the joint process cost will be allocated to each product. In other words, how much inventory cost will be recorded for each product? Main product By-product Allocated joint costs $

McKenzie’s Soap Sensations, Inc., produces hand soaps with three different scents: morning glory, snowflake sparkle, and sea breeze. The soap is produced through a joint production process that costs $30,000 per batch. Each batch produces 14,800 bottles of morning glory hand soap, 12,000 bottles of snowflake sparkle hand soap, and 10,000 bottles of sea breeze hand soap at the split-off point. Each product is processed further after the split-off point, but the market value of a bottle of any of the flavors at this point is estimated to be $1.25 per bottle. The additional processing costs of morning glory, snowflake sparkle, and sea breeze hand soap are $0.50, $0.55, and $0.60 per bottle, respectively. Morning glory, snowflake sparkle, and sea breeze hand soap are then sold for $2.00, $2.20, and $2.40 per bottle, respectively. 1.
