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 basisarrow_forwardThe joint costs allocated to product Y werearrow_forward

- LeMoyne 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_forwardClarion Industries produces two joint products, Y and Z.
