Answer:
$2,213,640
Explanation:
Calculation for the amount of joint costs allocated to product DBB-1 using the sales value at split-off method
First step is to calculate the total amount
DBB-1= 16,000 units *$25
DBB-1= 400,000
DBB-2= 24,000 units *$35
DBB-2= 840,000
DBB-2= 36,000 units *$55
DBB-2= 1,980,000
Total =3,220,000
(400,000+840,000+1,980,000)
Second step is to calculate the Weight for DBB-3
Weight for DBB-3= 1,980,000 / 3,220,000 Weight for DBB-3=61.49%
Now let calculate the Joint cost for DBB-3
Joint cost for DBB-3=$36,00,000*61.49%
Joint cost for DBB-3=$2,213,640
Therefore The amount of joint costs allocated to product DBB-1 using the sales value at split-off method is $2,213,640
