Dublin Brewing Co. uses the process cost system. The following data, taken from the organizations books, reflect the results of manufacturing operations during October: Production Costs Work in process, beginning of period: Costs incurred during month: Production Data: 13,000 units finished and transferred to stockroom Work in process, end of period, 2,000 units one-half completed Required: Prepare a cost of production summary for October.
During March, the following costs were charged to the manufacturing department: $22,500 for materials; $45,625 for labor; and $50,000 for manufacturing overhead. The records show that 40,000 units were completed and transferred, while 10,000 remained in ending inventory. There were 45,000 equivalent units of material and 42,500 units of conversion costs. Using the weighted-average method, prepare the companys process cost summary for the month.
Holmes Products, Inc., produces plastic cases used for video cameras. The product passes through three departments. For April, the following equivalent units schedule was prepared for the first department: Costs assigned to beginning work in process: direct materials, 90,000; conversion costs, 33,750. Manufacturing costs incurred during April: direct materials, 75,000; conversion costs, 220,000. Holmes uses the weighted average method. Required: 1. Compute the unit cost for April. 2. Determine the cost of ending work in process and the cost of goods transferred out.
The records of Stone Inc. reflect the following data: Work in process, beginning of month4,000 units one-fourth completed at a cost of 2,500 for materials, 1,400 for labor, and 1,800 for overhead. Production costs for the monthmaterials, 130,000; labor, 70,000; and factory overhead, 82,000. Units completed and transferred to stock45,000. Work in process, end of month5,000 units, one-half completed. Compute the months unit cost for each element of manufacturing cost and the total per unit cost. (Round unit costs to three decimal places.)
The records of Burris Inc. reflect the following data: Work in process, beginning of month2,000 units one-half completed at a cost of 1,250 for materials, 675 for labor, and 950 for overhead. Production costs for the monthmaterials, 99,150; labor, 54,925; factory overhead, 75,050. Units completed and transferred to stock38,500. Work in process, end of month3,000 units, one-half completed. Compute the months unit cost for each element of manufacturing cost and the total per unit cost.
Clearwater Candy Co. had a cost per equivalent pound for the month of 4.56 for materials, 1.75 for labor, and 1.00 for overhead. During the month, 10,250 lb were completed and transferred to finished goods. The 3,200 lb in ending work in process were 100% complete as to materials and 60% complete as to labor and overhead. At the beginning of the month, 1,500 lb were in process, 100% complete as to materials and 50% complete as to labor and overhead. The beginning inventory had a cost of 8,775. Clearwater uses FIFO costing. Required: 1. Calculate the cost of the pounds completed and transferred to finished goods. 2. Calculate the cost of the ending work in process.
Fordman Company has a product that passes through two processes: Grinding and Polishing. During December, the Grinding Department transferred 20,000 units to the Polishing Department. The cost of the units transferred into the second department was 40,000. Direct materials are added uniformly in the second process. Units are measured the same way in both departments. The second department (Polishing) had the following physical flow schedule for December: Costs in beginning work in process for the Polishing Department were direct materials, 5,000; conversion costs, 6,000; and transferred in, 8,000. Costs added during the month: direct materials, 32,000; conversion costs, 50,000; and transferred in, 40,000. Required: 1. Assuming the use of the weighted average method, prepare a schedule of equivalent units. 2. Compute the unit cost for the month.

Goods transferred to finished goods warehouse, 20,500 f. Actual overhead incurred, 10,000 Required: 1. Prepare the required journal entries for the preceding transactions. 2. Assuming Assembly and Finishing have no beginning work-in-process inventories, determine the cost of each departments ending work-in-process inventories.
Work in process account data for two months; cost of production reports Pittsburgh Aluminum Company uses a process cost system to record the costs of manufacturing rolled aluminum, which consists of the smelting and rolling processes. Materials are entered from smelting at the beginning of the rolling process. The inventory of Work in ProcessRolling on September 1 and debits to the account during September were as follows: During September, 2,600 units in process on September 1 were completed, and of the 28,900 units entering the department, all were completed except 2,900 units that were 45 completed. Charges to Work in ProcessRolling for October were as follows: During October, the units in process at the beginning of the month were completed, and of the 31,000 units entering the department, all were completed except 2,000 units that were 25 completed. Instructions 1. Enter the balance as of September 1 in a four-column account for Work in ProcessRolling. Record the debits and the credits in the account for September. Construct a cost of production report and present computations for determining (A) equivalent units of production for materials and conversion, (B) costs per equivalent unit, (C) cost of goods finished, differentiating between units started in the prior period and units started and finished in September, and (D) work in process inventory. 2. Provide the same information for October by recording the October transactions in the four-column work in process account. Construct a cost of production report, and present the October computations (A through D) listed in part (1). 3. Comment on the change in costs per equivalent unit for August through October for direct materials and conversion cost.
