Introduction               A               byproduct               can               be               defined               as               a               secondary               product               made               during               the               manufacture               of               another               product.

The               original               product               is               often               called               the               main               product.

Byproducts               are               also               defined               as               being               "the               products               of               a               joint               production               process               that               have               low               total               sales               value               when               compared               with               the               total               sales               value               of               the               main               product               or               of               joint               products"               (Horngren               et               al,               2006,               p.

567).

Examples               of               byproducts               include               orange               oil               collected               from               the               peels               of               processed               oranges,               molasses               produced               during               the               process               of               refining               sugar,               and               asphalt               created               from               the               process               of               refining               crude               oil               (Wikimedia               Foundation,               Inc.,               2006).
               Advantages               of               Byproduct               Processing
               There               are               several               advantages               to               byproduct               processing.

One               advantage               is               that               it               converts               waste               into               a               product               that               can               be               sold.

This               can               result               in               increased               profit               by               greatly               reducing               waste               and               increasing               revenue.

Byproduct               processing               may               also               be               good               for               the               environment               due               to               the               conversion               of               scrap               into               a               useable               product.

In               addition,               any               costs               associated               with               disposal               of               the               waste               are               eliminated               when               that               waste               is               converted               into               the               byproduct.
               Disadvantages               of               Byproduct               Processing
               One               disadvantage               of               byproduct               processing               is               the               potential               for               increased               cost.

This               is               because               the               byproduct               will               most               likely               require               additional               processing               after               it               has               been               removed               from               the               main               product.

Additionally,               byproduct               processing               "can               affect               the               allocation               of               joint               costs"               (Horngren               et               al,               2006,               p.

577).

However,               "by-product               cost               is               commonly               regarded               as               difficult               to               determine"               (Slater               &               Wootten,               n.d.).
               Byproduct               Accounting               Methods
               There               are               two               chief               methods               of               accounting               for               byproducts.

These               methods               are               the               sales               method               and               the               production               method.

The               sales               method               recognizes               the               byproduct               in               the               income               statement               at               the               time               of               sale.

This               method               is               most               commonly               used               in               practice               due               to               its               simplicity.

The               production               method               "recognizes               the               byproduct               in               the               financial               statements...in               the               month               it               is               produced"               (Horngren               et               al,               2006,               p.

578).

This               method               allocates               costs               using               the               net               realizable               value               method               and               offsets               the               costs               against               the               costs               of               the               main               product.

The               production               method               is               the               preferred               method               because               it               complies               with               the               GAAP               matching               principle               by               matching               "the               revenues               and               expenses               from               selling               the               main               product"               (Horngren               et               al,               2006,               p.

580).
               Conclusion
               Companies               that               are               considering               implementing               byproduct               processing               should               first               compare               the               advantages               and               disadvantages               associated               with               using               the               product               waste               to               manufacture               a               new,               additional               product.

A               cost-benefit               analysis               evaluating               the               additional               costs               versus               potential               increased               revenue               would               also               be               helpful               in               making               this               decision.
