Physical Units Method

Alomar Company manufactures four products from a joint production process: barlon, selene, plicene, and corsol. The joint costs for one batch are as follows:

Direct materials $64,707 Direct labor 39,734 Overhead 28,222

At the split-off point, a batch yields 1,342 barlon, 3,757 selene, 3,489 plicene, and 4,830 corsol. All products are sold at the split-off point: barlon sells for $15 per unit, selene sells for $18 per unit, plicene sells for $24 per unit, and corsol sells for $36 per unit.

Required:

1. Allocate the joint costs using the physical units method. If required, round your percentage allocation to four decimal places and round allocated costs to the nearest dollar. Note: The total of the allocated cost does not equal to the one provided in the question data due to rounding error.

Allocated Joint Cost Barlon $ Selene Plicene Corsol Total $

2. Suppose that the products are weighted as shown below:

Barlon 1.3 Selene 2.2 Plicene 1.6 Corsol 2.4

Allocate the joint costs using the weighted average method. If required, round your percentage allocation to four decimal places and round allocated costs to the nearest dollar.

Allocated Joint Cost Barlon $ Selene Plicene Corsol Total $
