Konami Code Gaming produces two types of high-end gaming controllers, one with a casing made of a polymer that looks like walnut wood and another with a casing made with a polymer that looks like red oak. The casings are made through a joint production molding process that produces 294 red oak casings and 252 walnut casings at the split-off point. The polymer for the red oak casings requires twice as much cooling time as the polymer for the walnut casings, although all casings are removed from the joint molding process at the same time (i.e., once the cooling for the red oak casings is complete). The joint production process costs a total of $5,000. Assuming the company allocates joint costs using the weighted average method based on the required cooling time of the two joint products, determine the amount of joint production costs allocated to each type of casing using the weighted average method.

Joint cost allocation — weighted average method Gary’s Grooves Co. produces two types of carving knives, one with a handle made of a polymer that looks like walnut wood and another with a handle made with a polymer that looks like red oak. The knives are made through a joint production molding process that produces 380 knife blades for red oak handle knives and 240 knife blades for walnut handle knives at the split-off point. The polymer for the red oak handle knife blades requires twice as much cooling time as the polymer for the walnut handle knife blades, although all knives are removed from the joint molding process at the same time (i.e., once the cooling for the red oak handle knives is complete). The joint production process costs a total of $ 6,000 . This information has been collected in the Microsoft Excel Online file.

Patz Company produces two types of machine parts: Part A and Part B, with unit contribution margins of 300 and 600, respectively. Assume initially that Patz can sell all that is produced of either component. Part A requires two hours of assembly, and B requires five hours of assembly. The firm has 300 assembly hours per week. Required: 1. Express the objective of maximizing the total contribution margin subject to the assembly-hour constraint. 2. Identify the optimal amount that should be produced of each machine part and the total contribution margin associated with this mix. 3. What if market conditions are such that Patz can sell at most 75 units of Part A and 60 units of Part B? Express the objective function with its associated constraints for this case and identify the optimal mix and its associated total contribution margin.
Wrappers Tape makes two products: Simple and Removable. It estimates it will produce 369,991 units of Simple and 146,100 of Removable, and the overhead for each of its cost pools is as follows: It has also estimated the activities for each cost driver as follows: Â How much is the overhead allocated to each unit of Simple and Removable?
Garys Grooves Co. produces two types of carving knives, one with a handle made of a polymer that looks like walnut wood and another with a handle made with a polymer that looks like red oak. The knives are made through a joint production molding process that produces 330 knife blades for red oak handle knives and 220 knife blades for walnut handle knives at the split-off point. The polymer for the red oak handle knife blades requires twice as much cooling time as the polymer for the walnut handle knife blades, although all knives are removed from the joint molding process at the same time (i.e., once the cooling for the red oak handle knives is complete). The joint production process costs a total of 6,500. Assuming the company allocates joint costs using the weighted average method based on the required cooling time of the two joint products, determine the amount of joint production costs allocated to each type of knife using the weighted average method.
Silven Company has identified the following overhead activities, costs, and activity drivers for the coming year: Silven produces two models of cell phones with the following expected activity demands: Required: 1. Calculate the global consumption ratios for the two products. 2. Using the activity consumption ratios for number of orders and number of setups, show that the same cost assignment can be achieved using these two drivers as that of the complete, four-driver ABC system.
Medical Tape makes two products: Generic and Label. It estimates it will produce 423,694 units of Generic and 652,200 of Label, and the overhead for each of its cost pools is as follows: It has also estimated the activities for each cost driver as follows: How much is the overhead allocated to each unit of Generic and Label?
Tucariz Company processes Duo into two joint products, Big and Mini. Duo is purchased in 1,000-gallon drums for 2.000. Processing costs are 3,000 to process the 1,000 gallons of Duointo 800 gallons of Big and 200 gallons of Mini. The selling price is 9 per gallon for Big and4 per gallon for Mini. If the physical units method is used to allocate joint costs to the finalproducts, the total cost allocated to produce Mini is: a. 500. b. 4,000. c. 1,000. d. 4,500.
Joint Cost Allocation-Market Value at Split-off Method Gripturn Inc. produces two different styles of door handles, standard and curved. The door handles go through a joint production molding process costing $28,000 per batch and producing 1,800 standard door handles and 900 curved door handles at the split- off point. Both door handles undergo additional production processes after the split-off point, but could be sold at that point: the standard style for $10 per door handle and the curved style for $5 per door handle. Determine the amount of joint production costs allocated to each style of door handle using the market value at split-off method.
