Answer 7 | |||||
Calculation of NRV | |||||
Calculation of Joint cost: | Product A | Product B | Product C | Total (B and C) | Note |
Sell price | 50.00 | 160.00 | 450.00 | A | |
Units produced | 40.00 | 100.00 | 100.00 | B | |
Sales value | 2,000.00 | 16,000.00 | 45,000.00 | C=A*B | |
Less: Further processing costs | - | 4,000.00 | 9,000.00 | D | |
NRV | 2,000.00 | 12,000.00 | 36,000.00 | 48,000.00 | E=C-D |
Allocation rate (Product B and C) | 25.00% | 75.00% | 100.00% | F=E/Sum of E | |
See F | G | H=F*G | |||
Allocation on the basis of NRV | Allocation rate | Joint Cost less Product A | Allocation | ||
Product B | 25.00% | 28,000.00 | 7,000.00 | ||
Product C | 75.00% | 28,000.00 | 21,000.00 | ||
Totals | 28,000.00 | ||||
So correct answer is option A. | |||||
Answer 8 | |||||
Calculation of NRV | |||||
Calculation of Joint cost: | Apple Juice | Apple Cider | Apple Pulp | Total | Note |
Sell price | 0.70 | 1.50 | 3.50 | A | |
Less: Further processing costs per unit | - | 0.66667 | 1.50 | B | |
NRV per unit | 0.70 | 0.83333 | 2.00 | C=A-B | |
Liters produced | 150,000.00 | 90,000.00 | 60,000.00 | D | |
NRV | 105,000.00 | 74,999.70 | 120,000.00 | 299,999.70 | E=C*D |
Allocation rate | 35.00% | 25.00% | 40.00% | 100.00% | F=E/Sum of E |
See F | G | H=F*G | |||
Allocation on the basis of NRV | Allocation rate | Joint Cost | Allocation | ||
Apple Juice | 35.00% | 240,000.00 | 84,000.00 | ||
Apple Cider | 25.00% | 240,000.00 | 60,000.00 | ||
Apple Pulp | 40.00% | 240,000.00 | 96,000.00 | ||
Totals | 240,000.00 | ||||
So correct answer is option B. |

The Marshall Company has a joint production process that
produces two joint products and a by-product. The joint products
are Ying and Yang, and the by-product is Bit. Marshall accounts for
the costs of its products using the net realizable value method.
The two joint products are processed beyond the split-off point,
incurring separable processing costs. There is a $2,000 disposal
cost for the by-product. A summary of a recent month’s activity at
Marshall is shown below: Ying Yang Bit...
