    Sir,
    In this question I am confused which units to take as an output production units or sales units…..?

    Alpha and Beta are created from a joint process. Both products can be sold immediately after split-off. There are no opening inventories or work-in-progress. The following information is available for the last period:

    Total joint production costs $850230

    Product Production Units Sales Units Selling Price per unit

    Alpha 14000 10000 $10

    Beta 15000 12000 $14

    Using the sales value method of apportioning joint production costs, what was the value for the closing inventory of product Beta for last period, to the nearest $?

    You use the sale value of the production.

    You should watch my free lecture on joint products where this is explained.

    Our free lectures are a complete course for Paper F2 and cover everything needed to be able to pass the exam well.
