Assignment Material: Questions; Exercises; Multiple Choice 312 Chapter X As stated earlier, this method is often called the weighted average method which is quite misleading because all the other methods make use of the weighted average by considering the units of production for each product. Application of the Method in a Factory of Two of More Departments. In cases wherein the common processing of joint products occur in twoormoredepartments, the factory cost in each department is allocated based on the relative number of points for the products, Each product’s unit costs from the different departments are added to arrive at its total production cost per unit. Example: Products M and P are produced from common processes in Departments Tand II. The production data for January, 19G are as follows: Department I Department IL Equivalent Points Equivalent Points Units Product M 10,000 8 8,000 6 6,000 Product P 15,000 7 12,000 4 10,000 Factory cost P30,000 28,000 ‘The computation for allocated joint cost and total production cost per unit for each product is shown below. In the said computation, allocated factory cost in each depart- ment is divided by the corresponding equivalent production to arrive at the departmen- tal unit cost, The Lotal cost of goods manufactured is computed by multiplying the total production cost per unit by the number of units completed.

Cost of Production Report with Joint Products When there are joint products, the selective flow of cost is reflected on the cost of production report. Costs transferred out from the common process as different products (or to different departments) are described as such. ILLUSTRATIVE PROBLEM C: Cost of Production Report, Joint Cost Allocation Based on Units of Production In the factory of Nagearlan Mfg. Co,, materials are placed in process in Department I. From Department I, work in process is distributed as follows: 60% to Dept. II for further processing into Product A 30% to Dept, III for further processing into Product B 10% waste (or normal loss) Quantity data; Deptt Dept. Dept.
