Joint cost allocation - weighted average method Gary's Grooves Co. produces two types of carving knives, one with a handle made of a polymer that looks like wolnut wood and another with a handle made with a polymer that looks like red oak. The knives are made through a joint production molding process that produces 280 knife blades for red oak handle knives and 240 kn blades for walnut handle knives at the split-off point. The polymer for the red oak handle knife blades requires twice as much cooling time as the polymer for the walnut handle knife blades, although all knives are removed from the joint molding process at the same time (le, once the cooling for the red cak handte knives is complete The Joint production process costs a total of $ 7,000 This information has been collected in the Microsoft Excel Online file.
