PHYSICAL UNITS METHOD Alomar Company manufactures four products from a joint production process: andol, incol, ordol, and exsol. The joint costs for one batch are as follows:
|
Direct materials |
$56,300 |
|
Direct labor |
28,000 |
|
Overhead |
15,700 |
At the split off point, a batch yields 1,000 andol, 1,500 incol, 2,500 ordol, and 3,000 exsol. All products are sold at the split off point: andol sells for $20 per unit; incol sells for $75 per unit; ordol sells for $64 per unit, and exsol sells for $22.50 per unit.
Required:
1. Allocate the joint costs using the physical units method.
2. Suppose that the products are weighted as follows:
|
Andol |
3.0 |
|
Incol |
2.0 |
|
Ordol |
0.4 |
|
Exsol |
1.0 |
Allocate the joint costs using the weighted average method.
