Differential Chemical produced 18,000 gallons of Preon and 39,000 gallons of Paron. Joint costs incurred in producing the two products totaled $8,500. At the split-off point, Preon has a market value of $11 per gallon and Paron $3.5 per gallon. Compute the portion of the joint costs to be allocated to Preon if the value basis is used.

Oakes Inc. manufactured 40,000 gallons of Mononate and 60,000 gallons of Beracyl in a joint production process, incurring 250,000 of joint costs. Oakes allocates joint costs based on the physical volume of each product produced. Mononate and Beracyl can each be sold at the split-off point in a semifinished state or, alternatively, processed further. Additional data about the two products are as follows: An assistant in the companys cost accounting department was overheard saying ...that when both joint and separable costs are considered, the firm has no business processing either product beyond the split-off point. The extra revenue is simply not worth the effort. Which of the following strategies should be recommended for Oakes?
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.
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.
Corey Corporation manufactures joint products W and X. During a recent period, joint costs amounted to $450,000 in the production of 20,000 gallons of W and 50,000 gallons of X. Both products will be processed beyond the split-off point, giving rise to the following data: Separable processing costs Sales price (per gallon) if processed beyond split-off The joint cost allocated to W under the net-realizable-value method would be: (Do not round intermediate calculations.)

Calcion Industries produces two joint products, Y and Z. Prior to the split-off point, the company incurred costs of $24,000. Product Y weighs 20 pounds and product Z weighs 80 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 ?
Joint Products Arkansas Corporation manufactures liquid chemicals A and B from a joint process. It allocates joint costs on the basis of sales value at split-off. Processing 5,000 gallons of productA and 1,000 gallons of product B to the split-off point costs $5,600. The sales value at split-off is $2per gallon for product A and $30 per gallon for product B. Product B requires additional separableprocessing beyond the split-off point at a cost of $2.50 per gallon before it can be sold at a price of$34 per gallon.Required What is the company’s cost to produce 1,000 gallons of product B?
X Corp produces 200 units of A and 100 units of B products. Final sales amount of A is 9,000. Joint cost is 6,600. Cost beyond the split off point is 3,000 each for both A and B. Using NRV or adjusted sale value method, the computed unit cost of A is 22 per unit. What is the Final sales amount of product B?
Corey Corporation manufactures joint products W and X. During a recent period, joint costs amounted to $320,000 in the production of 25,000 gallons of W and 60,000 gallons of X. Both products will be processed beyond the split-off point, giving rise to the following data: W X Separable processing costs $ 45,000 $ 150,000 Sales price (per gallon) if processed beyond split-off $ 15 $ 13 What would be the joint cost allocated to X under the net-realizable-value method ?

Texas Oil Co. transports crude oil to its refinery where it is processed into main products gasoline, kerosene, and diesel fuel, and by-product base oil. The base oil is sold at the split-off point for $500,000 of annual revenue, and the joint processing costs to get the crude oil to split-off are $5,000,000. Additional information includes: Required: Determine the allocation of joint costs using the net realizable value method, rounding the sales value percentages to the nearest tenth of a percent. (Hint: Reduce the amount of the joint costs to be allocated by the amount of the by-product revenue.)
