Carving Creations jointly produces wood chips and sawdust used in agriculture. The wood chips and sawdust are actually by-products of the company’s core operations, but Carving Creations accounts for them just like normally produced goods because of their large volumes. One jointly produced batch yields 3,000 cubic yards of wood chips and 10,000 cubic yards of sawdust, and the estimated cost per batch is $21,400. However, the joint production of each good is not equally weighted. Management at Carving Creations estimates that for the time it takes to produce 10 cubic yards of wood chips in the joint production process, only 2 cubic yards of sawdust are produced. Given this information, allocate the joint costs of production to each product using the weighted average method.

Kirk Minerals processes materials extracted from mines. The most common raw material that it processes results in three joint products: Spock, Uhura, and Sulu. Each of these products can be sold as is, or each can be processed further and sold for a higher price.

Concord Inc. is in the corn-milling industry but to date has had only enough manufacturing space for one joint process. Concord refers to its two products as prime products and by-products. There is a market for both products, but, as the names imply, the prime products are what Concord got into business to sell, as the prime products sales price far exceeds that of the by-products. In a typical production run, which costs $64,000, Concord Inc. produces the following products, which can be sold at the prices shown. Prime products By-products Quantity Produced 1.700 tons 850 tons (a) Because Concord's customers (the corn processors) count on purchasing top-quality raw material from Concord, it is important that the company maintains a steady amount of inventory. For this reason, Concord never completely sells out of its products. For the current production run, managers plan to sell 80% of each product immediately, holding 20% in inventory to carry into the next period. Record the…

Alphabet Soup Inc jointly produces A, B, and C at a joint cost of $100,000. The company uses the production method for byproducts and has estimated that B is a byproduct of manufacturing A and C with an estimated NRV of $6,000. The estimated NRVS of A and C are $80,000 and $80,000, respectively. If Alphabet Soup uses the NRV method in allocating joint costs, what will the cost allocation be? Select one: O a. $49,000 to A, $2,000 to B, and $49,000 to C. O b. $48,000 to A, $2,000 to B, and $48,000 to C. O c. $47,000 to A, $0 to B, and $47,000 to C. O d. $50,000 to A, $0 to B, and $50,000 to C. cross out cross out cross out cross out
Garrison Co. produces three products - X, Y, and Z - from a joint process. Each product may be sold at the split-off point or processed further. Additional processing requires no special facilities, and production costs of further processing are entirely variable and traceable to the products involved. Last year all three products were processed beyond split-off. Joint production costs for the year were $120,000. Sales values and costs needed to evaluate Garrison's production policy follow.
