Question 6. Solex Company manufactures three products from a common input in a joint
processing operation. Joint processing costs up to the split-off point total $100,000 per year.
The company allocates these costs to the joint products on the basis of their total sales value
at the split-off point. These sales values are as follows: product X, $50,000; product Y,
$90,000; and product Z, $60,000.
Each product may be sold at the split-off point or processed further. Additional processing
requires no special facilities. The additional processing costs and the sales value after
further processing for each product (on an annual basis) are shown below:

These products are produced through harvesting trees and sending the logs through a wood chipper machine. One batch of logsproduces 20,304 cubic yards of wood chips, 14,100 cubic yards of mulch, and 9,024 cubic yards ofwood pulp. The joint production process costs a total of 32,000 per batch. After the split-off point,wood chips are immediately sold for 25 per cubic yard while wood pulp and mulch are processedfurther. The market value of the wood pulp and mulch at the split-off point is estimated to be 22and 24 per cubic yard, respectively. The additional production process of the wood pulp costs 5per cubic yard, after which it is sold for 30 per cubic yard.

- Physical measure allocation and sell or process further Oregon Forests uses a joint process to manufacture two grades of wood: A and B. During October, the company incurred $38,880,000 of joint production cost in producing 64,800,000 board feet of Grade A and 21,600,000 board feet of Grade B lumber. The company allocates joint cost on the basis of board feet of lumber produced. The company can sell Grade A lumber at the split-off point for $0.70 per board foot and Grade B lumber at the split-off point for $0.50 per board foot.
