Salaries expense -6,490
Rent expense -3,110
Telephone expense -850
Miscellaneous expenses -660
net profit = $1,690
retained earnings = net profit - dividends distributed = $1,690 - $1,570 = $120

In order to calculate the joint cost of Gorp we need to understand what the method means and how it's used to calculate it. The adjusted sales method is used to allocate joint costs based on the prices the products are sold.
First of all we need to calculate the percentage of Selling price of Gorp to that of the total selling price of both Gorp and Gumm.
I.e: 60 ÷ (60+30) × 100
SP % of Gorp= 66.67%
Now we calculate joint cost allocated to Gorp.
Total joint cost of both Gorp and Gumm = $480000
Joint cost of Gorp = $480000 × 66.67%
Joint cost of Gorp = $320,000
