Harmon Inc, manufactures two products from a joint process, product A and product B. A standard production run incurs joint costs of $45,000 and results in 1,500 units of product A and 2,500 units of product B. Product A sells for $50.00 per unit and Product B sells for $20.00 per unit. Assuming that no further processing occurs after the split-ff point, how much of the joint costs are allocated to Product A and B using the physical measure method

Harmon Inc.

Joint costs of $45,000 allocated to:

Product A = $16,875

Product B = $28,125

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Joint costs of a standard production run = $45,000

Joint products        Product A     Product B      Total

Production units       1,500            2,500          4,000

Selling price per unit  $50               $20

Allocation of joint costs based on physical measure method:

Product A = $16,875 (1,500/4,000 * $45,000)

Product B = $28,125 (2,500/4,000 * $45,000)

b) Joint costs of $45,000 were incurred by Product A and Product B jointly because they consumed the same resources during the production run.  These costs can be allocated to the products based on established criteria, for example, units of products and sales value.  The purpose is to properly account for the joint costs at split-off.
