Allocating Joint Costs Using the Net Realizable Value Method A company manufactures three products, L-Ten, Triol, and Pioze, from a joint process. Each production run costs $12,300. None of the products can be sold at split-off, but must be processed further. Information on one batch of the three products is as follows:
Product Gallons Further Processing
Cost per Gallon Eventual Market
Price per Gallon
L-Ten 3,200 $0.70 $2.10
Triol 3,700 1.10 5.40
Pioze 2,000 1.50 6.20
Required:
1. Allocate the joint cost to L-Ten, Triol, and Pioze using the net realizable value method. Round your allocation percentages to four decimal places and round the allocated costs to the nearest dollar.

2. What if it cost $2.10 to process each gallon of Triol beyond the split-off point? How would that affect the allocation of joint cost to the three products? Round your allocation percentages to four decimal places and round the allocated costs to the nearest dollar.

a) Data and Calculations:

Cost of each production run = $12,300

Product    Gallons  Further Processing     Eventual Market   Net Realizable

                                Cost per Gallon          Price per Gallon         Value

L-Ten          3,200              $0.70                       $2.10                $4,480

Triol            3,700                  1.10                         5.40                 15,910

Pioze         2,000                  1.50                        6.20                  9,400

Total          8,900                                                                      $29,790

Allocation of join cost:

L-Ten = $4,480/$29,790 * $12,300 = $1,850

Triol = $15,910/$29,790 * $12,300 = $6,569

Pioze = $9,400/$29,790 * $12,300 = $3,881

Triol = $12,210/$26,090 * $12,300 = $5,756

Pioze = $9,400/$26,090 * $12,300 = $4,432
