Hii
Case II. Merhardies, Inc. is a manufacturer of different types of lumber products. Their market
involves independent timber contractors in the heart of Bonifacio Global City, Taguig. Their
lumber products are the following: Studs for residential buildings (for interior designs);
Decorative pieces (fireplace mantels, beams for cathedral ceilings); and Posts used as
support braces (mine support braces, braces for exterior fences on ranch properties).
The aforementioned products are actually the result of a joint sawmill process that involves
removal of bark from the logs, cutting the logs into workable size which ranges from 8 to 16
feet in length, and then cutting the individual products from logs.
During 1st quarter of the year, the following joint costs are incurred:
Rough timber logs (DM)
Debarking cost (DL & MOH)
Sizing cost (DL & MOH)
Cutting cost (DL & MOH)
Total joint costs
P 1,000,000.00
100,000.00
400,000.00
500,000.00
P 2,000,000.00

Products

Decorative pieces
Posts
Quarterly output of
materials at SOP
Fully Processed Selling
Price
225,000 units
P 8.00
15,000 units
60,000 units
100.00
20.00
Further information revealed that the studs are sold as rough-cut lumber after emerging from
the sawmill operation without further processing. Also the posts require no further processing
beyond split-off point. However, the decorative pieces must be planned and further sized
after emerging from sawmill. This entails additional costs of P300,000 per quarter and
normally, this process would result to 10% loss in units. Without this planning and sizing
process, there is still an active market for the unfinished decorative pieces and that these
can be sold at P60 per unit.
Requirements:
1. Allocate the joint cost using SV@SOP method, physical measure and NRV method.
2. Decide whether the decorative pieces should be processed further.
