Husky Wheat Products (HWP) extracts and processes wheat germ. There were no beginning inventories at March 1. During March, HWP processed 10,000 kilograms of wheat and obtained 9,500 kg of wheat germ and 500 kgs of straw. Processing the 10,000 kilograms of wheat costs HWP $15,000. HWP sells 8,000 kgs of wheat germ for $4.00 per kg. In addition, HWP sells 400 kilograms of straw for $0.80 per kilogram. HWP treats the straw as a by-product. Required (treat each requirement independently): 1. Assuming HWP accounts for the by-product using the production method, what is the value of the ending inventory for each product(s) at March 31? 2. Assuming HWP accounts for the by-product using the sales method, what is the value of the ending inventory for each product(s) at March 31?

Shalom Company manufactures and sells Peace products. During the year, the company estimated for the production and sale of 15,000 units of Peace products. Each unit requires 1.50 kilos of direct material at a cost of P8 per pound. It takes 15 minutes to manufacture each unit of Peace product at a cost of P0.18 per minute. At the end of the current year, Shalom had produced and sold 16,000 Peace products for P50 per unit. The actual costs for direct materials and direct labor were P179,200, and P44,800, respectively.

Treaty Treat, Inc., purchases soybeans and processes them into the following three types of products: dog biscuits, cat food, and chicken feed. These products are the result of a joint process. In a typical month, there are total joint costs of $191,000. The dog biscuits and chicken feed are sold after being pressed into various shapes without further processing by TreatyTreat. (i.e. the fully- processed sales price is the same as the sales price at the point of split-off.) The cat food must be further mixed with vitamins. If the cat food spoils during the vitamin-adding process, the product can still be sold for fertilizer at $2.70 per unit. (Hint, this would be the sales value of the cat food at the split-off point.) The additional processing of cat food costs TreatyTreat $13,700 per month. Product yield and average sales value on a per-unit basis from the joint processes are as follows: Monthly Fully Processed Sales Price $9 Product Dog Biscuits Cat Food Chicken Feed Output 53,000…
