eBook Calculator Sell at Split-Off or Process Further Bozo Inc. manufactures two products from a joint production process. The joint process costs $110,000 and yields 6,000 pounds of LTE compound and 14,000 pounds of HS compound. LTE can be sold at split-off for $55 per pound. HS can be sold at split-off for $10 per pound. A buyer of HS asked Bozo to process HS further into CS compound. If HS were processed further, it would cost $45,900 to turn 14,000 pounds of HS into 4,000 pounds of CS. The CS would sell for $61 per pound. Required: 1. What is the contribution to income from selling the 14,000 pounds of HS at split-off? 2.
