In preparing this statement, the company allocated joint costs
among the grades on a physical basis as an equal amount per pound.
The company’s delivery cost records show that $31,200 of the
$69,300 relates to crating the No. 1 and No. 2 peaches and hauling
them to the buyer. The remaining $38,100 of delivery costs is for
crating the No. 3 peaches and hauling them to the cannery.
Problem 09-5AC Part 1
Required:
1. Prepare reports showing cost allocations on a
sales value basis to the three grades of peaches. Separate the
delivery costs into the amounts directly identifiable with each
grade. Then allocate any shared delivery costs on the basis of the
relative sales value of each grade. (Do not round
intermediate calculations.)
