Gunston Processing produces two products, ALT-1 and ALT-2, from a batch using a single raw material, ALT-O. Both products require further processing before they be can be sold. A batch of ALT-1 can be sold for $153,000 after processing costs of $42,000. A batch of ALT-2 can be sold for $241,200 after further processing. The cost of ALT-O is $200,000 for a batch. Using the estimated net realizable value method, a joint cost of $120,000 was allocated to ALT-2 for a batch. Required: Compute the separable processing cost for a batch of ALT-2. Note: Do not round intermediate calculations. Processing cost

Come-Clean Corporation produces a variety of cleaning compounds including Grit 337 and Sparkle silver polish. Grit 337 is a coarse cleaning powder that costs $1.20 a pound to make and sells for $7.00 a pound. A small portion of Grit 337 is combined with several other ingredients and further processed into Sparkle silver polish. The silver polish sells for $5.00 per jar. This further processing requires one-fourth pound of Grit 337 per jar of silver polish. The additional variable manufacturing costs per jar of silver polish are: Other ingredients Direct labor Additional variable manufacturing cost Overhead costs associated with processing the silver polish are: Variable manufacturing overhead cost Fixed manufacturing overhead cost (per month) Production supervisor Depreciation of mixing equipment The production supervisor has no duties other than overseeing production of the silver polish. The mixing equipment is special- purpose equipment acquired specifically to produce the silver…
Peppertree Company has two divisions, East and West. Division East manufactures a component that Division West uses. The variable cost to produce this component is $1.56 per unit; full cost is $1.98. The component sells on the open market for $4.96. Assuming Division East has excess capacity, what is the lowest price Division East will accept for the component? What is the highest price that Division West will pay for it? (Enter your answers in 2 decimal places.)

Gunston Processing produces two products, ALT-1 and ALT-2, from a batch using a single raw material, ALT-O. Both products require further processing before they be can be sold. A batch of ALT-1 can be sold for $150,000 after processing costs of $30,000. A batch of ALT-2 can be sold for $240,000 after further processing. The cost of ALT-0 is $200,000 for a batch. Using the estimated net realizable value method, a joint cost of $120,000 was allocated to ALT-2 for a batch. Required: Compute the separable processing cost for a batch of ALT-2. Processing cost hs
Saint John Mining operates several facilities. At one, a typical batch of an ore, Pryex, run through the processing plant yields three products: PX-10, PX-20, and PX-30. At the split-off point, the intermediate products cannot be sold without further processing. A typical batch of PX-10 sells for $110,000 after incurring additional processing costs of $20,000. PX-20 can be sold for $170,000 after additional processing costs of $44,000, and the PX-30 sells for $220,000 but requires additional processing costs of $76,000. The joint costs of processing the Pryex, including the cost of mining, are $240,000 per batch. Required: Use the estimated net realizable value method to allocate the joint processing costs and fill out the following table. PX-10 PX-20 PX-30 Estimated Sales Value at split-off Percent of total sales value at split-off % % % Cost-allocation
