Chapter 7, Problem 9CE
Refer to Cornerstone Exercise 7.7. Assume that Orchard Fresh. Inc., uses the sales-value-at-split-off method of joint cost allocation and has provided the following information about the four grades of apples:
Total joint cost is $18,000.
Required:
- 1. Allocate the joint cost to the four grades of apples using the sales-value-at-split-off method. (Carry out the percent calculations to four significant digits. Round all cost allocations to the nearest dollar.)
- 2. What if the price at split-off of Grade B apples increased to $1.20 per pound? How would that affect the allocation of cost to Grade B apples? How would it affect the allocation of cost to the remaining grades?

A company manufactures two joint products at a joint cost of 1,000. These products can be sold at split-off, or when further processed at an additional cost, sold as higher quality items. The decision to sell at split-off or further process should be based on the:
A. allocation of the 1,000 joint cost using the quantitative unit measure
B. assumption that the 1,000 joint cost is irrelevant
C. allocation of the $1,000 joint cost using the relative sales value approach
D. assumption that the 1,000 joint cost must be allocated using a physical-measure approach
E. allocation of the 1,000 joint cost using any equitable and rational allocation basis
A company manufactures three products, L-Ten, Triol, and Pioze, from a joint process. Each production run costs $12,800. None of the products can be sold at split-off, but must be
processed further. Information on one batch of the three products is as follows:
