Ferrier Chemical Company makes three products, B7, K6, and X9, which are joint products from the same materials. In a standard batch of 150,000 pounds of raw materials, the company generates 35,000 pounds of B7, 75,000 pounds of K6, and 40,000 pounds of X9. A standard batch costs $600,000 to produce. The sales prices per pound are $6, $10, and $16 for B7, K6, and X9, respectively. Required Allocate the joint product cost among the three final products using weight as the allocation base.

Answer:

Ferrier Chemical Company

Allocation of the joint cost, using weight as the allocation base:

For B7 = $140,000 ($600,000*35,000/150,000)

For K6 = $300,000 ($600,000*75,000/150,000)

ForX9 = $160,000 ($600,000*40,000/150,000)

Allocation of the join cost, using market value:

For B7 =     $78,750 ($600,000*$210,000/$1,600,000)

For K6 =  $281,250 ($600,000*$750,000/$1,600,000)

For X9 = $240,000 ($600,000*$640,000/$1,600,000)

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Joint cost of a standard batch = $600,000

                                     B7             K6          X9          Total

Pounds generated  35,000     75,000     40,000   150,000

Sales price per pound $6           $10          $16

Market value         $210,000  $750,000 $640,000 $1,600,000    

Allocation of the joint cost, using weight as the allocation base:

For B7 = $140,000 ($600,000*35,000/150,000)

For K6 = $300,000 ($600,000*75,000/150,000)

ForX9 = $160,000 ($600,000*40,000/150,000)

Allocation of the join cost, using market value:

For B7 =     $78,750 ($600,000*$210,000/$1,600,000)

For K6 =  $281,250 ($600,000*$750,000/$1,600,000)

For X9 = $240,000 ($600,000*$640,000/$1,600,000)

b) The market value for each product class is a function of the quantity produced multiplied by the sales price per unit.
