Question

Iaci Company makes two products from a common input. Joint processing costs up to the split-off point total $42,000 a year. The company allocates these costs to the joint products on the basis of their total sales values at the split-off point. Each product may be sold at the split-off point or processed further. Data concerning these products appear below: Product X Product Y Total Allocated joint processing costs $22,400 $19,600 $42,000 Sales value at split-off point $32,000 $28,000 $60,000 Costs of further processing $11,600 $25,300 $36,900 Sales value after further processing $44,800 $53,200 $98,000 Required: (a) What is the net monetary advantage (disadvantage) of processing Product X beyond the split-off point?

Answer:

Net monetary advantage = $11,200

Explanation:

Sales

<em>A company should process further a product if the additional revenue from the split-off point is greater than than the further processing cost.  </em>

<em>Also note that all costs incurred up to the split-off point are irrelevant to the decision to process further </em>.  

We can apply this principle to the question as follows:

                                                                              $

Sales revenue after the split-off point            44,800

Sales revenue at the split-off point             <u>    (32,000) </u>

Additional sales revenue                                  12,800  

Further processing cost                                   <u>  (11,600) </u>

Increase in Net income                                      <u> 11,200</u>

Net monetary advantage = $11,200

<em>Kindly note that the allocated joint cost of 22, 400 to product X is a sunk cost. This implies whether or not the Product X is processed further the sunk cost is irrelevant to the decision</em>

Computing Cost of Sales and Ending Inventory Stocken Company has the following financial records for the current period. Units U
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

Instructions are listed below

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Computing Cost of Sales and Ending Inventory Stocken Company has the following financial records for the current period.

Units= 100

Unitary Cost Beginning Inventory  $ 46

Purchases:

#1= 650units at  $42

#2= 550units at  $38

#3= 200units at  $36

The ending inventory is 350 units.

A) First in, first out

First, we need to calculate the number of units sold:

Units sold= beginning inventory + purchases - ending inventory

Units sold= 100 + 1400 - 350= 1150

Ending inventory= 200 units at 36 + 150 at 38= 200*36+150*38=$12900

Cost of goods sold= 100*46 + 650* 42 + 400* 38=$47100

B) Average cost= total cost of units available for sale/ number of unit

Average cost= (100*46+650*42+550*38+200*36)/1500

Average cost= $40 unit

Ending inventory= 350*40= $14,000

COGS= 1150*40= $46,000

C) Last in, first out

Ending inventory= 100 units* 46 + 250 units*42= $15,100

COGS= 200* 36 + 550*38+ 400*42= $44,900
