Accounting for a main product and a byproduct. (Cheatham and Green, adapted) Crispy, Inc., is a producer of potato chips. A single production process at Crispy, Inc., yields potato chips as the main product, as well as a byproduct that can be sold as a snack. Both products are fully processed by the splitoff point, and there are no separable costs.

For September 2017, the cost of operations is $520,000. Production and sales data are as follows:

Production (lbs) Sales (lbs) Sell price per lb

Potato Chips 46,000 34,960 $26

Byproducts 8200 5000 $5

There were no beginning inventories on September 1, 2017.

Suppose you win a small lottery and have the choice of two ways to be paid: you can accept the money in a lump sum or in a series of payments over time. if you pick the lump sum, you get $2,950 today. if you pick payments over time, you get three payments: $1,000 today, $1,000 1 year from today, and $1,000 2 years from today. 1) at an interest rate of 6% per year, the winner would be better off accepting the (lump sum / payments over time), since it has the greater present value. 2) at an interest rate of 9% per year, the winner would be better off accepting the (lump sum / payments over time), since it has the greater present value. 3) years after you win the lottery, a friend in another country calls to ask your advice. by wild coincidence, she has just won another lottery with the same payout schemes. she must make a quick decision about whether to collect her money under the lump sum or the payments over time. what is the best advice to give your friend? a) the lump sum is always better. b) the payments over time are always better. c) it will depend on the interest rate; advise her to get a calculator. d) none of these answers is good advice.
