Copeland Inc. produces X-547 in a joint manufacturing process. The company is studying whether to sell X-547 at the split-off point or upgrade the product to become Xylene. The
following information has been gathered:
I . Selling price per pound of X-547
II . Variable manufacturing costs of upgrade process
Ill . Avoidable fixed costs of upgrade process
IV . Selling price per pound of Xylene
V . Joint manufacturing costs to produce X-547
Which items should be reviewed when making the upgrade decision?
Common, or joint, costs cannot be identified with a particular joint product. By definition, joint products have common costs until the split-off point. Costs incurred after the split-off point are separable costs. The decision to continue processing beyond splitoff is made separately for each product. The costs relevant to the decision are the separable costs because they can be avoided by selling at the split-off point. They should be compared with the incremental revenues from processing further. Thus, items I . (revenue from selling at split-off point), II . (variable costs of upgrade), Ill . (avoidable fixed costs of upgrade), and IV . (revenue from selling after further processing) are considered in making the upgrade decision.
Which basic force(s) drive(s) industry competition and the ultimate profit potential of the industry?
I . Threat of new entrants.
II . Bargaining power of suppliers.
III . Favorable access to raw materials and labor.
IV . Product differentiation.
Threat of new entrants and bargaining power of suppliers are among the five basic forces that drive industry competition and the ultimate profit potential in the industry. This potential is measured in terms of long-term return on invested capital. The other three forces are rivalry among existing firms, threat of substitutes , and threat of buyers' bargaining power.
