Chapter 16, Problem 16.26E
Joint costs and byproducts. (W. Crum adapted) Royston, Inc., is a large food-processing company. It processes 150,000 pounds of peanuts in the peanuts department at a cost of $180,000 to yield 12,000 pounds of product A, 65,000 pounds of product B, and 16,000 pounds of product C.
- Product A is processed further in the salting department at a cost of $27,000. It yields 12,000 pounds of salted peanuts, which are sold for $12 per pound.
- Product B (raw peanuts) is sold without further processing at $3 per pound.
- Product C is considered a byproduct and is processed further in the paste department at a cost of $12,000. It yields 16,000 pounds of peanut butter, which are sold for $6 per pound.
The company wants to make a gross margin of 10% of revenues on product C and needs to allow 20% of revenues for marketing costs on product C. An overview of operations follows:
- 1. Compute unit costs per pound for products A, B, and C, treating C as a byproduct. Use the NRV method for allocating joint costs. Deduct the NRV of the byproduct produced from the joint cost of products A and B.
Required
- 2. Compute unit costs per pound for products A, B, and C, treating all three as joint products and allocating joint costs by the NRV method.

Thompson Industrial Products Inc. (TIPI) is a diversified industrial-cleaner processing company. The company's Dargan plant produces two products: a table cleaner and a floor cleaner from a common set of chemical inputs (CDG). Each week, 945,000 ounces of chemical input are processed at a cost of $213,000 into 630,000 ounces of floor cleaner and 315,000 ounces of table cleaner. The floor cleaner has no market value until it is converted into a polish with the trade name FloorShine. The additional processing costs for this conversion amount to $244,200,
Floor Shine sells at $20 per 30-ounce bottle. The table cleaner can be sold for $21 per 25-ounce bottle. However, the table cleaner can be converted into two other products by adding 315,000 ounces of another compound (TCP) to the 315,000 ounces of table cleaner.
This joint process will yield 315,000 ounces each of table stain remover (TSR) and table polish (TP). The additional processing costs for this process amount to $102,000. Both…

One compound is decomposed into two chemicals: anderine and dofinol. The cost of processing one batch of compound is $70,500, and the result is 5,600 gallons of anderine and 8,300 gallons of dofinol. Betram Chemicals can sell the anderine at split-off for $10.00 per gallon and the dofinol for $6.95 per gallon. Alternatively, the anderine can be processed further at a cost of $7.30 per gallon (of anderine) into cermine. It takes 4 gallons of anderine for every gallon of cermine. A gallon of cermine sells for $61. 1. What if the production of anderine into cermine required additional purchasing and quality inspection activity?
