> Answer to Question ii,
The concept of Relative range is cost need to be incurred if we
extract certain tons of LTT. Like if we will extracat and trasport
any number between 0-100 Tons, Fixed cost would be $1500. But if we
will trasport more than 100 Tons i.e. 101-200 tons, Fixed cost will
increse by $1500 and would be $3000.
Here, at any point of extraction Variable cost per unit would be
same.
> Answer to Question iii,
If we need to allocate Joint cost between Lu and Li based on Market
Data, we will use Sales Value of each category as a base to
allocate Joint cost. The reason is , both the minerals are having
higher sales value and so, it would be appropriate to use that
base.
