Lipton Liquids produces three products by a joint production process. Raw materials are put into production in Department $1,$ and at the end of processing in this department, three products appear. Alpha is sold at the split$-$off point with no further processing. Beta and Gamma require further processing before they are sold. Beta is processed in Department $2,$ and Gamma is processed in Department $3.$ Lipton Liquids uses the estimated net realizable value method of allocating joint production costs.

No inventories were on hand at July $1,$ the beginning of the quarter. No raw material was on hand at September $30.$ All units on hand at

September $30$ were fully complete as to processing. Following is a summary of costs and other data for the period ended September

$30$:

Required:

a$.$ Determine the following amounts for each product: $(1)$ estimated net realizable value used for allocating joint costs, $(2)$ joint costs

allocated to each of the three products, $(3)$ cost of goods sold, and $(4)$ finished goods inventory costs, September $30.$

b$.$ Assume that the entire output of Alpha could be processed further at an additional cost of $$12$ per unit and then sold for $$16\mathrm{.}30$ per

unit. Compute the incremental income $($loss$)$ from further processing Alpha.

c$.$ Considering the results of part $b,$ should Lipton Liquids process Alpha further? Determine the following amounts for each product: $(1)$ estimated net realizable val costs allocated to each of the three products, $(3)$ cost of goods sold, and $(4)$ finishe Note: Do not round intermediate calculations.
