Exercise 20-11

Kirk Minerals processes materials extracted from mines. The most common raw material that it processes results in three joint products: Spock, Uhura, and Sulu. Each of these products can be sold as is, or each can be processed further and sold for a higher price. The company incurs joint costs of $180,300 to process one batch of the raw material that produces the three joint products. The following cost and sales information is available for one batch of each product.

		Sales Value at Split-Off Point			Allocated Joint Costs			Cost to Process Further			Sales Value of Processed Product
Spock			$209,700			$39,300			$109,600			$299,500
Uhura			299,700			60,000			84,500			399,400
Sulu			455,000			81,000			249,000			801,000

Determine the incremental profit or loss that each of the three joint products. (Enter negative amounts using either a negative sign preceding the number e.g. -45 or parentheses e.g. (45).)
