Wren pork company uses the value basis of allocating joint costs in its production of pork products. relevant information for th

Volgvan

Answer: $8600

Explanation:

Joint cost allocation:

Product :

Loin chops

Pounds - 3000

Price per pound - $5

ground

Pounds - 10,000

Price per pound - 2.00

ribs

Pounds - 4,000

Price per pound - 4.75

bacon

Pounds - 6,000

Price per pound - 3.50

total joint cost - $43000

Sales cost per product :

Loin chops - 3000 × 5 = $15,000

Ground = 10000 × $2 = $20,000

Ribs - 4000 × $4.75 = $19,000

Bacon - 6000 × $3.50 = $21,000

Loin cost allocation is given by :

Total joint cost × (sales value of Loin chops ÷ Total sales value of all products)

$43,000 × ($15,000 ÷ $(15,000 + 20,000 + 19,000 + 21,000))

$43,000 × ( $15000 ÷ $75000)

$43,000 × 0.2 = $8600

Companies A and B are in the same industry and are identical except for cost structure. At a volume of 50,000 units, the compani

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

B. Company A's cost structure has higher fixed costs than B's.

Explanation:

Let's see the formula for income:

50,000 units x sales price - variable cost x 50,000 - fixed = net income

50,000 (sales - variable) - fixed = net income

At 50,000 both have equal net income.

Also we are given the fact that their sales is the same.

"identical except for cost structure"

So:

$50,000 (S-V_a)-Fixed_a = 50,000 (S-V_b)-Fixed_b$

We work it and remove sales from the equation:

$50,000S-50,000V_a-Fixed_a = 50,000S-50,000V_b-Fixed_b$

$-50,000Variable_a-Fixed_a = -50,000Variable_b-Fixed_b$

At 60,000 units, Company A has a higer income, so the increase of variable cost in company A is lower than company B

The cost of 10,000 more units is all variable cost, if Company A has more income, then their variable are lower.

If variable cost for 10,000 is lower, same applies for the variable cost for 50,000 so we have:

10,000Va < 10,000 Vb

50,000Va < 50,000Vb

So to have equal income at 50,000 units.

Fixed of A > Fixed of B
