Gunston Processing produces two products, ALT-1 and ALT-2, from a batch using a single raw material, ALT-0. 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.

Zycon has produced 10,000 units of partially finished Product A. These units cost $15,000 to produce, and they can be sold to another manufacturer for $20,000. Instead, Zycon can process the units further and produce finished Products X, Y, and Z. Processing further will cost an additional $22,000 and will yield total revenues of $35,000. Place an X in the appropriate column to identify whether the item is relevant or irrelevant to the sell or process further decision. Item Relevant Not Relevant a. $15,000 cost already incurred to produce b. $20,000 selling price c. $22,000 additional processing costs d. $35,000 revenues from processing

The management of International Aluminum Co. is considering whether to process aluminum ingot further into rolled aluminum. Rolled aluminum can be sold for $2,200 per ton, and ingot can be sold without further processing for $1,100 per ton. Ingot is produced in batches of 80 tons by smelting 500 tons of bauxite, which costs $105 per ton of bauxite. Rolled aluminum will require additional processing costs of $620 per ton of ingot, and 1.25 tons of ingot will produce 1 ton of rolled aluminum (due to trim losses). Required: 1. Prepare a differential analysis as of February 5 to determine whether to sell aluminum ingot (Alternative 1) or process further into rolled aluminum (Alternative 2). Use a minus sign to indicate subtracted amounts, negative amounts, or a loss.

Zing Coffee Company produces Columbian coffee in batches of 6,500 pounds. The standard quantity of materials required in the process is 6,500 pounds, which cost $5 per pound. Columbian coffee can be sold without further processing for $9 per pound. Columbian coffee can also be processed further to yield Decaf Columbian, which can be sold for $12 per pound. The processing into Decaf Columbian requires additional processing costs of $13,377 per batch. The additional processing also causes a 5% loss of product due to evaporation. Question Content Area a. Prepare a differential analysis dated October 6 on whether to sell regular Columbian (Alternative 1) or process further into Decaf Columbian (Alternative 2).

Patty's Mailbox Company produces a standard mailbox with variable manufacturing costs of $18 per unit. The selling price of the standard mailbox is $25 per unit. The fixed manufacturing overhead cost is $67,000. A normal production run includes 100,000 units. Patty's Mailbox Company has discovered an additional process to change the standard mailbox into a deluxe mailbox. Additional costs are estimated at $4 per unit. The deluxe mailbox would sell for $35. Additional fixed manufacturing overhead cost of $23,000 would be incurred if the deluxe mailbox is produced. There would be no change in the number of units produced. Make an analysis to determine if Patty's Mailbox Company should continue to produce and sell the standard mailbox or change the standard mailbox into a deluxe mailbox. Requirements: 1) List ONLY the relevant information to solve the problem; and use a graphic organizer, such as flowcharts and tables, to show how to solve the problem.
