Answer:

Cost for Nuts = $80,000 [tex]\times[/tex] 2/5 = $32,000

Cost for bolts = $80,000 [tex]\times[/tex] 3/5 = $48,000

Explanation:

Provided joint cost = $80,000

Total quantity of nuts and bolts at separation

Nuts = 5,000 pounds

Bolts = 10,000 pounds

Weights of cost will be based on value of goods.

Nuts = 5,000 [tex]\times[/tex] $20 = $100,000

Bolts = 10,000 [tex]\times[/tex] $15 = $150,000

Thus, weights will be 10:15 = 2:3

Cost for Nuts = $80,000 [tex]\times[/tex] 2/5 = $32,000

Cost for bolts = $80,000 [tex]\times[/tex] 3/5 = $48,000
