Joint cost allocation
Lovely Lotion Inc. produces three different lotions: hand, body, and foot. The lotions are produced jointly in a mixing process that costs a total of $250 per batch. At the split-off point, one batch produces 80, 40, and 25 bottles of hand, body, and foot lotion, respectively. After the split-off point, hand lotion is sold immediately for $2.50 per bottle. Body lotion is processed further at an additional cost of $0.25 per bottle and then sold for $5.75 per bottle. Foot lotion is processed further at an additional cost of $0.85 per bottle and then sold for $4.00 per bottle. Assume that body and foot lotion could be sold at the split-off point for $3.00 and $3.20 per bottle, respectively.
