Yip Manufacturing purchases trees from Cheney Lumber and processes them up to the splitoff point where two products (paper and pencil casings) are obtained. The products are then sold to an independent company that markets and distributes them to retail outlets. The following information was collected for the month of May:

Trees processed:   100 trees (yield is 70,000 sheets of paper and 60,000 pencil casings and no scrap)
Production:   paper   70,000 sheets
   pencil casings   60,000
Sales:   paper   68,000 at $0.04 per page
   pencil casings   60,000 at $0.10 per casing

The cost of purchasing 100 trees and processing them up to the splitoff point to yield 70,000 sheets of paper and 60,000 pencil casings is $3,000.
