Mel Corporation manufactures liquid chemicals X and Y from a joint process. Joint costs are allocated on the basis of relative market value at split-off. It costs Php5,000 to process 500 gallons of Product X and 1,000 gallons of Product Y to the split-off point. The market value at split-off is Php10 per gallon for Product X and Php15 for Product Y. Product Y requires an additional process beyond split-off at a cost of Php5 per gallon before it can be sold. What is Mel’s cost to produce 1,000 gallons of Product Y?

Sell or Process Further Port Allen Chemical Company processes raw material D into joint products E and F. Raw material D costs $6 per liter. It costs $100 to convert 100 liters of D into 60 liters of E and 40 liters of F. Product F can be sold immediately for $6 per liter or processed further into Product G at an additional cost of $4 per liter. Product G can then be sold for $14 per liter. Determine whether Product F should be sold or processed further into Product G. • Calculate the net advantage (disadvantage) of further processing • Use a negative sign with your answer to indicate a net disadvantage (if applicable). $0 per liter
Carmen Co. can further process Product J to produce Product D. Product J is currently selling for $21.15 per pound and costs $16.40 per pound to produce. Product D would sell for $42.80 per pound and would require an additional cost of $9.55 per pound to produce. The differential cost of producing Product D is Oa. $9.55 per pound Ob. $5.73 per pound Oc. $7.64 per pound Od. $11.46 per pound
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.
The materials used by the North Division of Horton Company are currently purchased from outside suppliers at $29 per unit. These same materials are produced by Horton’s South Division. The South Division can produce the materials needed by the North Division at a variable cost of $14 per unit. The division is currently producing 126,000 units and has capacity of 180,000 units. The two divisions have recently negotiated a transfer price of $20 per unit for 54,000 units. By how much will each division's income increase as a result of this transfer? South Division $ North Division $
The selling price of a component is 1.45 Riyal with a material cost of 0.8 Riyal. The cost of the machine used to manufacture the component is15000 Riyals. The present production volume is 22000 units. Determine the breakeven quantity, if the cost of the component is 1.5 Riyal from outside supplier. Due to modification in the component design, the material cost is reduced to 0.70 riyal with additional machine cost of 4000 Riyals and increased production quantity to 30000. Guide the manger to select appropriate product for maximum profit based on profit, break-even analysis and justify the selection
Colt Company owns a machine that can produce two specialized products. Production time for Product TLX is three units per hour and for Product MTV is five units per hour. The machine’s capacity is 2,600 hours per year. Both products are sold to a single customer who has agreed to buy all of the company’s output up to a maximum of 4,420 units of Product TLX and 5,995 units of Product MTV. Selling prices and variable costs per unit to produce the products follow. $ per unit Product TLX Product MTV Selling price per unit $ 11.50 $ 6.90 Variable costs per unit 3.45 4.14 Determine the company's most profitable sales mix and the contribution margin that results from that sales mix. (Round per unit contribution margins to 2 decimal places.)
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 ? Note: Do not round intermediate calculations.
Milo Manufacturing produces products Kappa and Lambda from a joint process. Total joint costs are $168,000. The sales value at split-off was $174,960 for 8,400 units of Kappa and $63,280 for 12,600 units of Lambda. Required: What joint costs are allocated to the two products using the net realizable value at split-off approach? Note: Do not round intermediate calculations.

Integrity Company manufactures two products, Alpha and Beta from a joint process. One production run costs P20,000 and results in 3,000 units of Alpha and 4,000 units of Beta. Neither product is salable at split-off but must be processed further such that the separable cost for Alpha is P10 per unit and for Beta is P5 per unit. The eventual market price for Alpha is P20 and for Beta, P10. If the company uses the constant gross margin approach in allocating joint cost to joint products, determine the total cost of product Alpha. Choices: • P12,000 • P18,000 • P38,000 • P42,000

A chemical company is considering two types of incinerators to burn solid waste generated by a chemical operation. Both incinerators have a burning capacity of 20 tons per day. The following data have been compiled for comparison of the two incinerators: If the firm's MARR is known to be 13%. determine the processing cost per tonof solid waste for each incinerator. Assume that incinerator B will be availablein the future at the same cost.
Tucariz Company processes Duo into two joint products, Big and Mini. Duo is purchase in 1,000-gallon drums for $2,000. Processing costs are $3,000 to process the 1,000 gallons of Duo into 800 gallons of Big and 200 gallons of Mini. The selling price is $9 per gallon for Big and $4 per gallon for Mini. If the sales value at split-off method is used to allocate joint costs to the final products, the per-gallon cost (rounded to the nearest cent) of producing Big is Select one: a. $5.00 per gallon. b. $5.63 per gallon. c. $4.50 per gallon.
