Cost Allocation:Joint Products and Byproducts

Joint Cost TerminologyJoint costs—costs of a single production
process that yields multiple products simultaneously
Splitoff point—the place in a joint production process where two or more products become separately identifiable
Separable costs—all costs incurred beyond the splitoff point that are assignable to each of the now-identifiable specific products

Joint Cost Terminology Categories of joint process outputs:
1. Outputs with a positive sales value2. Outputs with a zero sales value
Product—any output with a positive sales value, or an output that enables a firm to avoid incurring costs
Value can be high or low

Joint Cost TerminologyMain product—output of a joint production
process that yields one product with a high sales value compared to the sales values of the other outputs
Joint products—outputs of a joint production process that yields two or more products with a high sales value compared to the sales values of any other outputs

Joint Cost TerminologyByproducts—outputs of a joint production
process that have low sales values compare to the sales values of the other outputs

Reasons for Allocating Joint CostsRequired for GAAP and taxation purposesComputation of inventoriable costs and cost
of goods sold for financial accounting and tax reporting
Internal analysis of divisional profitabilityCost-based contractingInsurance settlementsRequired for rate and price regulationsLitigation

Joint Cost Allocation Methods Market-based—allocate using market-
derived data (dollars):1. Sales value at splitoff2. Net realizable value (NRV)3. Constant gross-margin percentage NRV
Physical measures—allocate using tangible attributes of the products, such as pounds, gallons, barrels, and so on

Sales Value at Splitoff MethodUses the sales value of the entire production
of the accounting period to calculate allocation percentage

Net Realizable Value MethodAllocates joint costs to joint products on the
basis of relative NRV of total production of the joint products
NRV = Final Sales Value – Separable Costs

Constant Gross Margin NRV MethodAllocates joint costs to joint products in a way
that the overall gross-margin percentage is identical for the individual products.
Joint costs are calculated as a residual amount.

Physical-Measure MethodAllocates joint costs to joint products on the
basis of the relative weight, volume, or other physical measure at the splitoff point of total production of the products

Method SelectionIf selling price at splitoff is available, use
the sales value at splitoff method.If selling price at splitoff is not available,
use the NRV method.If simplicity is the primary consideration,
physical-measures method or the constant gross-margin method could be used.
Despite this, some firms choose not to allocate joint costs at all.

Sell-or-Process Further DecisionsIn sell-or-process further decisions, joint
costs are irrelevant. Joint products have been produced, and a prospective decision must be made: to sell immediately or process further and sell later.
Joint costs are sunk costs.Don’t assume all separable costs in joint-cost
allocations are always incremental costs.Some separable costs may be fixed costs.Separable costs need to be evaluated for
relevance individually .

ByproductsTwo methods for accounting for byproductsProduction method—recognizes byproduct
inventory as it is created, and sales and costs at the time of sale
Sales method—recognizes no byproduct inventory, and recognizes only sales at the time of sales: byproduct costs are not tracked separately
