A company produces two products,XX and YY,from a single raw material called Zub.Zub is purchased in 55-gallon drums,and the contents of one drum are sufficient to produce 30 gallons of XX and 15 gallons of YY.XX sells for $10.00 per gallon and YY sells for $30.00 per gallon.During the current period,the company used 400 drums of Zub to produce XX and YY.The cost of Zub was $90 per drum.
Required:
(1)If the cost of Zub is allocated to the XX and YY products on the basis of the number of gallons produced,how much of the total cost of the 400 drums should be charged to each product?
(2)If the cost of Zub is allocated to the XX and YY products in proportion to their market values,how much of the total cost of the 400 drums should be charged to each product?
(3)Which basis of allocating the cost is most likely to be used by the company?

Preliminary calculations: Total joint cost: 400 drums * $90/drum = $36,000
Amount of XX produced: 400 drums * 30 gallons/drum = 12,000 gallons
Amount of YY produced: 400 drums * 15 gallons/drum = 6,000 gallons
Part 1: Allocation of $36,000 based on number of gallons:
Preliminary calculations: Total joint cost: 400 drums * $90/drum = $36,000 Amount of XX produced: 400 drums * 30 gallons/drum = 12,000 gallons Amount of YY produced: 400 drums * 15 gallons/drum = 6,000 gallons Part 1: Allocation of $36,000 based on number of gallons:    Part 2: Allocation of $36,000 based on sales value:    Part 3: Relative market values would probably be chosen.In this case,YY has a value three times that of XX,so the amount per barrel allocated to YY ($21,600/6,000 = $3.60 per barrel)is three times the amount allocated to XX ($14,400/12,000 = $1.20 per barrel).Using the relative number of gallons,both products are allocated $2 per barrel,regardless of their sales value.
