Tulip % Joint cost allocation Florissa's Flowers jointly produces three varieties of flowers in the same garden: tulips, lilies, and daisies. The flowers are all watered via the same irrigation system and all receive the same amount of water; dalsies require three times as much as lilies, and the water required for tulips is about halfway between the amounts needed for daisies and lilies. Although the lilies and tulips receive more water than they need due to the joint irrigation process, they are not hurt by the overwatering. The joint production cost of the three varieties of flowers is about $30 per harvest. Every harvest yields 10 tulips, 20 lilies, and 20 daisies. 1.
