Cariboo Manufacturing
Company incurred a joint cost of $759,000 in the production of X
and Y in a joint process. Presently, 2,500 of X and 2,100 of Y are
being produced each month. Management plans to decrease X's
production by 650 units in order to increase the production of Y by
920 units. Additionally, this change will require minor
modifications, which will add $51,520 to the joint cost. This cost
is entirely attributable to product Y. What is the amount of the
joint costs allocable to X and Y before changes to existing
production assuming Cariboo allocates their joint costs according
to the proportion of X and Y produced?
Product X | Product Y | |||||
A. | $ | 346,500 | $ | 412,500 | ||
B. | $ | 339,706 | $ | 419,924 | ||
C. | $ | 348,529 | $ | 410,471 | ||
D. | $ | 412,500 | $ | 346,500 |
Total Unit produced before changes = 2500+2100 = 4600
Join Cost allocation = Join Cost/Total Unit produced*Unit produced product X
Product X = 759000*2500/4600 = 412500
Product Y = 759000*2100/4600 = 346500
So answer is d)

Tanner Corporation produced 4,270 units, consisting of three separate products, in a joint process for the year. The market for these products was so unstable that it was not practical to estimate the selling price of the products. A cost of $471,000 was incurred in the joint process. Product X's production was 80% of product Y's while product Z's production was 125% of product Y's. What is the amount of the joint cost allocable to product X (rounded to the...
