Pacheco, Inc., produces two products, overs and unders, in a single process. The joint costs of this process were 50,000, and 14,000 units of overs and 36,000 units of unders were produced. Separable processing costs beyond the split-off point were as follows: overs, 18,000; unders, 23,040. Overs sell for 2.00 per unit; unders sell for 3.14 per unit. Required: 1. Allocate the 50,000 joint costs using the estimated net realizable value method. 2. Suppose that overs could be sold at the split-off point for 1.80 per unit. Should Pacheco sell overs at split-off or process them further? Show supporting computations.
Venezuela Oil Inc. transports crude oil to its refinery where it is processed into main products gasoline, kerosene, and diesel fuel, and by-product base oil. The base oil is sold at the split-off point for $1,000,000 of annual revenue, and the joint processing costs to get the crude oil to split-off are $10,000,000. Additional information includes: Required: Determine the allocation of joint costs using the net realizable value method, rounding the sales value percentages to the nearest tenth of a percent. (Hint: Reduce the amount of the joint costs to be allocated by the amount of the by-product revenue.)
Laramie Industries produces two joint products, H and C. Prior to the split-off point, the company incurred costs of $66,000. Product H weighs 44 pounds and product C weighs 66 pounds. Product H sells for $250 per pound and product C sells for $295 per pound. Based on a physical measure of output, allocate joint costs to products H and C.
Oakes Inc. manufactured 40,000 gallons of Mononate and 60,000 gallons of Beracyl in a joint production process, incurring 250,000 of joint costs. Oakes allocates joint costs based on the physical volume of each product produced. Mononate and Beracyl can each be sold at the split-off point in a semifinished state or, alternatively, processed further. Additional data about the two products are as follows: An assistant in the companys cost accounting department was overheard saying ...that when both joint and separable costs are considered, the firm has no business processing either product beyond the split-off point. The extra revenue is simply not worth the effort. Which of the following strategies should be recommended for Oakes?
Differential Chemical produced 18,000 gallons of Preon and 39,000 gallons of Paron. Joint costs incurred in producing the two products totaled $8,500.

Joint products A and B emerge from common processing costs of $100,000 and yield 2, 000 units of Product A and 1,000 units of Product B. Product A can be sold for $100 per unit. Product B can be sold for $120 per unit. The amount of joint costs allocated to Product A if joint costs are allocated on the basis of relative sales value will be $ (rounded to nearest dollar
