Chapter 25, Problem 4CMA
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 company’s 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?

The Marshall Company has a joint production process that produces two joint products and a by-product. The joint products are Ying
and Yang, and the by-product is Bit. Marshall accounts for the costs of its products using the net realizable value method. The two joint
products are processed beyond the split-off point, incurring separable processing costs. There is a $2,000 disposal cost for the by-
product. A summary of a recent month's activity at Marshall is shown below:

- 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.arrow_forwardTucariz 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.

The door handles go through a joint production molding process costing 29,000 per batch and producing 2,000 standard door handles and 1,000 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 4 per door handle and the curved style for 2 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.arrow_forward
- 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.)arrow_forwardLeMoyne Manufacturing Inc.’s joint cost of producing 2,000 units of Product X, 1,000 units of Product Y, and 1,000 units of Product Z is $50,000. The unit sales values of the three products at the split-off point are Product X–$30, Product Y–$100, and Product Z–$90. Ending inventories include 200 units of Product X, 300 units of Product Y, and 100 units of Product Z. Compute the amount of joint cost that would be included in the ending inventory valuation of the three products on the basis of their sales values at split-off. Assume that Product Z can be sold for $120 a unit if it is processed after split-off at a cost of $10 a unit. Compute the amount of joint cost that would be included in the ending inventory valuation of the three products on the basis of their net realizable values.arrow_forwardRelyaTech 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?
