Tree pruning and care @ $0.30/Ib 70,200 70,200 280,800 421,200
Picking, sorting, and grading @ $0.20/Ib 46,800 46,800 187,200 280,800

Net income (loss) $ 357,400 $ 310,600 $ (273,500 ) $ 394,500

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 $34,000 of the $73,500 relates to crating the No. 1 and No. 2 peaches and hauling them to the buyer. The remaining $39,500 of delivery costs is for crating the No. 3 peaches and hauling them to the cannery.

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.)

Tree Pruning and Care:
Grade Allocation Base Percent of Allocation Base x Indirect Cost Allocated Cost
