Step 1 of 4
Joint Costs
Often companies produce more than one product in one single process and thus the costs of the processes are known as joint costs. Joint costs include all the costs including direct material, direct labour and overheads of the company. Joint costs are allocated among the joint products and not the by-products as they are only incidental to the process.
