Problem 11-66 Find Maximum Input Price: Estimated Net Realizable Value Method (LO 11-7)

Ticon Corporation's manufacturing operation produces two joint products. Product delta sells for $22 per unit at the split-off point. After an additional $226,000 of processing costs are incurred, product omega sells for $86 per unit. In a typical month, 83,000 units are processed; 60,000 units become product delta and 23,000 units become product omega.

The joint process has only variable costs. In a typical month, the conversion costs of the joint products amount to $429,000. Materials prices are volatile, and if prices are too high, the company stops production.
