One challenge facing Renkas Oil & Gas is how to allocate the joint cost of producing the three separate salable outputs. Assume no beginning or ending inventory. s and joint all Print Done Renkas Oil & Gas, a large energy conglomerate, jointly processes purchased hydrocarbons to generate three nonsalable intermediate products: ICRS, ING4, and XGE3. These intermediate products are further processed separately to produce crude oil, natural gas liquids (NGL), and natural gas (measured in liquid equivalents). (Click the icon to view the overview.) A federal law that has recently been passed taxes crude oil at 30% of operating income. No new tax is to be paid on natural gas liquid or natural gas. (Click the icon to view additional information.) Read the requirements. Requirement 1. Allocate the August 2017 joint cost among the three products using the (a) Physical-measure method and (b) NRV method. First, allocate the August 2017 joint cost using the physical-measure method. (Round the weights to five decimal places and joint costs to the nearest cent.)

Allocate the August 2017 joint cost among the three products using the following: a. Physical-measure method b. NRV method. Show the operating income for each product using the methods in requirement 1.
