![Barbara started as an intern for Marigold Enterprises last month, and this is the first time she is able to see how the joint process costs are initially determined and how
they are subsequently divvied up. Her mentor shows her the source documents for the DM, DL, and MOH costs that are necessary for the process to work (adding up
to $45,000). This joint process results in three different products, two of which are intentionally produced (Sift and Rift) and one that is a by-product (Nilt). Of these
three products, Sift is ready for sale immediately after the joint process. Rift and Nilt, however, are both further processed (with no change in volume) in order to
generate a reasonable value for them. While watching her supervisor work through the calculations, Barbara learns that the company uses the NRV method for
allocating joint costs. The quantities and values for each product at various processing stages are as follows.
Quantity at Split-Off
Sales Value at Split-Off
Further Processing Cost
Final Sales Value

Using the production method of accounting for by-products, determine how much of the joint cost Barbara will allocate to each product. (Round proportion to 4
decimal places, e.g. 0.2516 and final answers to 2 decimal places, e.g. 15.25.)
