The plant manager did a better job of controlling costs and meeting the
budget. She came in under budget for the plant even though she paid the

These costs are assigned to the two departments as follows
Department Square Footage Rate Total
*A total of $23,100 ($8,250 + $14,850) in occupancy costs is allocated to these
Part 2
Market rates are used to allocate occupancy costs for depreciation, interest, and taxes. Heating, lighting,
and maintenance costs are allocated to the departments on both floors at the average rate per square
foot. These costs are separately assigned to each class as follows:
Total

Costs
Depreciation—Building……………….$18,000 $18,000
Interest—Building mortgage……….. 27,000 27,000
Problem 24-2A (Continued)
Value-based costs are allocated to departments in two steps
(i) Compute market value of each floor

(ii) Allocate $54,000 to each floor based on its percent of market value

Part 3
A second-floor manager would prefer allocation based on market value. This is a
reasonable and logical approach to allocation of occupancy costs. The current

Income Statement
For Year Ended December 31, 2015
No. 1 No. 2 No. 3 Combined
Sales (by grade)
No. 1: 300,000 lbs. @ $1.50…………
$450,000
No. 2: 300,000 lbs. @ $1.00………… $300,000
No. 3: 750,000 lbs. @ $0.25………… $187,500
Part 3
Delivery costs include both crating and hauling costs. Georgia is able to identify the portion of the cost
directly related to the No. 3 peaches, presumably because the No. 3s are going to a different destination
than the No. 1 and No. 2 peaches. If the No. 1s and No. 2s are going to the same place, then the hauling
portion of the delivery cost may truly be a joint cost, at least for the No. 1 and No. 2 peaches.
However, since the No. 1 and No. 2 peaches are different grades and are
sold for different prices per pound, it seems safe to assume they are crated
