    Joint Costs
    The Clarion Janez Chemical Company produces 2 products which requires an initial common process. The 2 products are BT41 (5000 Units) ant BT46 (10,000 Units). The common joint costs were $90,000 for the month of January. There are no sales values at splitoff. However, with additional processing the output as follows:

    Product Separable costs Volume Produced Sales Value

    BT41 $20,000 5000 units $100,000
    BT46 $60,000 10,000 units $300,000


    6.1 Determine the values of each of the 2 products at splitoff if the net realizable value (NRV) is used for the calculation.
    6.2 Determine the gross margin for the sale of each of the products produced and sold after all processing was completed.

    Should be something like this

    1. fid the NRV

    BT41 BT46
    Sales ($) 100,000 300,000
    Less: Further Processing Cost($) 20,000 60,000
    NRV($) 80,000 240,000
    Cost Share Ratio =80,000/(240,000+80,000)
    25% =240,000/(240,000+80,000)
    75%
    Joint Cost Apportionment ($) =90,000 X 25%
    22,500 =90,000 X 75%
    67,500

    2. gross margin for the sale of each of the products produced and sold after all processing was completed

    BT41 ($) BT46 ($)
    Sales 100,000 300,000
    Less: Joint Production Cost 22,500 67,500
    Less: Further Processing Cost 20,000 60,000
    Gross Profit 57,500 172,500
