RelyaTech Corporation makes two products, Light and Heavy. These two products emerge from a joint process. Product Light has been allocated $19,300 of the total joint costs of $40,000. A total of 2,600 units of product Light are produced from the joint process. (ID#62183) Product Light can be sold at the split-off point for $13 per unit, or it can be processed further for an additional total cost of $10,600 and then sold for $15 per unit Q) If product Light is processed further and sold, what would be the financial advantage (disadvantage) for RelyaTech Corporation compared with sale in its unprocessed form directly after the split-off point?

Corporation manufactures three products from a joint process. The three products are in industrial grade form at the split off point. They can either be sold at that point or processed further into premium grade. Costs related to each batch of this process is as follows: Product 1 Product 2 Product 3 Sales Price at split-off point $16 $12 $5 Allocated joint costs $6,000 $6,000 $6,000 Sales Price after further processing $20 $18 $14 Cost of further processing $6,360 $1,420 $2,650 Product Quantity 1,000 lb. 1,000 lb. 1,000 Ib. Q. What would be the additional amount of profit that Corp. would gain from further processing the product(s) that is/are more profitable to process further rather than be sold at the split-off point?

Required: What cost (total, not unit) and profit will be reported for each product using the current method for allocating joint costs? If the costs of the joint process are allocated on the basis of the net realizable value of the products, what cost (total, not unit) and profit will be reported for each product? How much will profit at Elsa Products increase or decrease if the company switches to the net realizable value method for allocating joint process costs?
Lawn Products produces two products (X and Y) and a by-product (Z) from a joint process using a raw material (Alpha). The company chooses to allocate the costs on the basis of the physical quantities method. Last month, it processed 23,000 pounds of Alpha at a total cost of $99,000. The output of the process consisted of 28,800 units of product X, 35,200 units of product Y, and 7,100 units of by-product Z. By-product Z can be sold for $12,000. This is considered to be its net realizable value, which is deducted from the processing costs of the main products. Required: What amount of joint costs should be assigned to each of product X and product Y? Product X Product Y Joint Costs
