Net Realizable Value Method—Multiple Choice: Each of the three multiple-choice exercises should be considered independent of each other.

a. The Rote Company manufactures products C and R from a joint process. The total joint costs are $60,000. The sales value at split-off was $75,000 for 8,000 units of product C and $25,000 for 2,000 units of product R. Assuming that total joint costs are allocated using the net realizable value at split-off approach, what were the joint costs allocated to product C?

(1) $15,000.

(2) $30,000.

(3) $45,000.

(4) $48,000.

b. Superior Company manufactures products A and B from a joint process, which also yields a by-product, X. Superior accounts for the revenues from its byproduct sales as other income. Additional information is as follows:

Assuming that joint product costs are allocated using the net realizable value at split-off approach, what was the joint cost allocated to product B?

(1) $79,200.

(2) $88,000.

(3) $90,000.

(4) $99,000.

c. Helen Corp. manufactures products W, X, Y. Additional information is as follows:

Assuming that joint total costs of $160,000 were allocated using the net realizable value method, what joint costs were allocated to each product?
