Question Help Xylon Processing Limited is a chemical manufacturer. Two chemicals, Aardyn and Gargaton, are produced from the common chemical xylon. The joint process requires 15,000 litres of xylon to be processed at a cost of $23,000 (including the cost of the chemical itself). From these 15,000 litres, the company produces 9,000 litres of Aardyn and 6,000 litres of Gargaton. The joint costs of $23,000 are allocated $13,800 to Aardyn and $9,200 to Gargaton. The company can sell the Aardyn and the Gargaton at the split-off point for $15,400 and $10,208, respectively. Alternatively, the company can process the Aardyn further to produce 9,000 litres of Anardyn. The Anardyn sells for $2.55 per litre and additional processing costs are $7,200.
