ntegrity Company manufactures two products, Alpha and Beta from a joint process. One production run costs P20,000 and results in 3,000 units of Alpha and 4,000 units of Beta. Neither product is salable at split-off but must be processed further such that the separable cost for Alpha is P10 per unit and for Beta is P5 per unit. The eventual market price for Alpha is P20 and for Beta, P10. If the company uses the constant gross margin approach in allocating joint cost to joint products, determine the total cost of product Alpha. Choices: • P12,000 • P18,000 • P38,000 • P42,000

Patz Company produces two types of machine parts: Part A and Part B, with unit contribution margins of 300 and 600, respectively. Assume initially that Patz can sell all that is produced of either component. Part A requires two hours of assembly, and B requires five hours of assembly. The firm has 300 assembly hours per week. Required: 1. Express the objective of maximizing the total contribution margin subject to the assembly-hour constraint. 2. Identify the optimal amount that should be produced of each machine part and the total contribution margin associated with this mix. 3. What if market conditions are such that Patz can sell at most 75 units of Part A and 60 units of Part B? Express the objective function with its associated constraints for this case and identify the optimal mix and its associated total contribution margin.

The Freed Company produces three products, X, Y, Z, from a single raw material input. Product Y can be sold at the split-off point for total revenues of $50,000, or it can be processed further at a total cost of $16,000 and then sold for $68,000. Product Y: А. Should be sold at the split-off point, rather than processed further. В. Would increase the company's overall net operating income by $18,000 if processed further and then sold. С. Would increase the company's overall net operating income by $68,000 if processed further and then sold. D. Would increase the company's overall net operating income by $2,000 if processed further and then sold. Е. None of the above
Backer Company manufactures products Katran and Klare from a joint process. Product Katran has been allocated P7,500 of total joint costs of P30,000 for the 1,500 units produced. Katran can be sold at the splitoff point for P4 per unit, or it can be processed further with additional costs of P2,000 and sold for P7 per unit. If Katran is processed further and sold, the result would be A. a gain of P1,000 from further processing. B. a loss of P2,500 from further processing C. an overall loss of P1,500 D. a gain of P2,500 from further processing
Tucariz Company processes Duo into two joint products, Big and Mini. Duo is purchase in 1,000-gallon drums for $2,000. Processing costs are $3,000 to process the 1,000 gallons of Duo into 800 gallons of Big and 200 gallons of Mini. The selling price is $9 per gallon for Big and $4 per gallon for Mini. If the sales value at split-off method is used to allocate joint costs to the final products, the per-gallon cost (rounded to the nearest cent) of producing Big is Select one: a. $5.00 per gallon. b. $5.63 per gallon. c. $4.50 per gallon. X d. $3.38 per gallon.
A company manufactures products X and Y using a joint process. The joint processing costs are P10,000. Products X and Y can be sold at split-off for P12,000 and P8,000 respectively. After split-off, product X is processed further at a cost of P5,000 and sold for P21,000 whereas product Y is sold without further processing. If the company uses the net realizable value method for allocating joint costs, the joint cost allocated to X is
Crane Production Company manufactures two products from a joint process. The joint process costs $37,000. Both products must be processed past the split-off point to be marketable. White sugar produces 680 units or 37,000 lbs., incurs separable costs of $5 per unit, and has a market price of $25. Brown sugar produces 2,030 units or 74,500 lbs., incurs separable costs of $10 per unit, and has a market price of $20. Using the sales value at split-off method to allocate joint costs, how much joint costs will be allocated to each product? (Do not round the intermediate calculations. Round answers to 0 decimal places, e.g. 5,275.) White Sugar Brown Sugar $ $ Joint Costs

Corey Corporation manufactures joint products W and X. During a recent period, joint costs amounted to $450,000 in the production of 20,000 gallons of W and 50,000 gallons of X. Both products will be processed beyond the split-off point, giving rise to the following data: Separable processing costs Sales price (per gallon) if processed beyond split-off The joint cost allocated to W under the net-realizable-value method would be: (Do not round intermediate calculations.)
