Fiorello Company manufactures two types of cold- pressed olive oil, Refined Oil and Top Quality Oil, out of a joint process. The joint (common) costs incurred are $92,500 for a standard production run that generates 30,000 gallons of Refined Oil and 15,000 gallons of Top Quality Oil. Additional processing costs beyond the split-off point are $2.40 per gallon for Refined Oil and $1.95 per gallon for Top Quality Oil. Refined Oil sells for $4.25 per gallon, while Top Quality Oil sells for $8.30 per gallon. MangiareBuono, a supermarket chain, has asked Fiorello to supply it with 30,000 gallons of Top Quality Oil at a price of $8 per gallon. MangiareBuono plans to have the oil bottled in 16-ounce bottles with its own MangiareBuono label. If Florello accepts the order, it will save $0.23 per gallon in packaging of Top Quality Oil. There is sufficient excess capacity for the order. However, the market for Refined Oil is saturated, and any additional sales of Refined Oil would take place at a price of $3.10 per gallon. Assume that no significant

Tucariz 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. If the physical units method is used to allocate joint costs to the finalproducts, the total cost allocated to produce Mini is: a. 500. b. 4,000. c. 1,000. d. 4,500.
Man OFort Inc. produces two different styles of door handles, standard and curved. 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.
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?
Taylor Company produces two industrial cleansers that use the same liquid chemical input: Pocolimpio and Maslimpio. Pocolimpio uses two quarts of the chemical for every unit produced, and Maslimpio uses five quarts. Currently, Taylor has 6,000 quarts of the material in inventory. All of the material is imported. For the coming year, Taylor plans to import 6,000 quarts to produce 1,000 units of Pocolimpio and 2,000 units of Maslimpio. The detail of each products unit contribution margin is as follows: Taylor Company has received word that the source of the material has been shut down by embargo. Consequently, the company will not be able to import the 6,000 quarts it planned to use in the coming years production. There is no other source of the material. Required: 1. Compute the total contribution margin that the company would earn if it could import the 6,000 quarts of the material. 2. Determine the optimal usage of the companys inventory of 6,000 quarts of the material. Compute the total contribution margin for the product mix that you recommend. 3. Assume that Pocolimpio uses three direct labor hours for every unit produced and that Maslimpio uses two hours. A total of 6,000 direct labor hours is available for the coming year. a. Formulate the linear programming problem faced by Taylor Company. To do so, you must derive mathematical expressions for the objective function and for the materials and labor constraints. b. Solve the linear programming problem using the graphical approach. c. Compute the total contribution margin produced by the optimal mix.
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.
Blakes Blacksmith Co. produces two types of shotguns, a 12-gauge and 20-gauge. The shotguns are made through a joint production process that ultimately produces 30 12-gauge shotguns and 20 20-gauge shotguns and costs a total of 4,000 per batch. After the split-off point, each type of shotgun goes through an additional crafting process before it is sold. The additional production process of the 12-gauge shotgun costs 30 per gun, after which it is sold for 180 per gun. The additional production process of the 20-gauge shotgun costs 25 per gun, after which it is sold for 150 per gun. Determine the amount of joint production costs allocated to each type of shotgun using the physical units method.
Box Springs, Inc., makes two sizes of box springs: twin and double. The direct material for the twin is $25 per unit and $40 s used in direct labor, while the direct material for the double is $40 per unit, and the labor cost is $50 per unit. Box Springs estimates it will make 5,000 twins and 9,000 doubles in the next year. It estimates the overhead for each cost pool and cost driver activities as follows: How much does each unit cost to manufacture?
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.)
