Answer:

Sales price =$405

Explanation:

A company should process further a product if the additional revenue from the split-off point is greater than than the further processing cost.  

Also note that all cost incurred up to the split-off point are irrelevant to the decision to process further .  

                                                                                   $

Sales revenue after the split-off point                       y

Sales revenue at the split-off point (280×20)          (5,600)  

Further processing cost (40× 20)+ 500                    (1,300)    

Net advantage from further processing                    1,200

y-5600-1300=1200

y= 8,100

Sales price=  Sales revenue after the split-off point/Number of units

Sales price = 8,100/20 =$405  

Sales price =$405
