Question

Blasto, Inc., operates several mines. At one, a typical batch of ore run through the plant yields three products: lead, copper, and manganese. At the split-off point, the intermediate products cannot be sold without further processing. The lead from a typical batch sells for $52,000 after incurring additional processing costs of $14,600. The copper is sold for $95,000 after additional processing costs of $10,000, and the manganese yield sells for $66,000 but requires additional processing costs of $18,400. The joint costs of processing the raw ore, including the cost of mining, are $165,000 per batch. Required Use the estimated net realizable value method to allocate the joint processing costs. (Do not round intermediate calculations.) Lead Copper Manganese Approximate sales value at split-off Percent of total sales values at split-off Cost allocation

Explanation / Answer

Lead Copper Manganese Approximate sales value at split-off 37400 85000 47600 Percent of total sales value at split-off 22% 50% 28% Cost allocation 36300 82500 46200
