Question
ABC Company employs a process costing system for its manufacturing operations. All direct materials are added at the beginning of the process and conversion costs are added proportionately. The production quantity schedule for April is reproduced below:
Work in process on April 1 (60% complete as to conversion costs) 1,000
Units started during April 5,000
Total units to account for 6,000
Units completed and transferred out 4,000
Work in process on April 30 (20% complete as to conversion costs) 2,000
Total units accounted for 6,000
Costs pertaining to the month of April are as follows:
Beginning inventory costs: (DM, $54,600; Conversion, $35,560) $90,160
Costs incurred during April (DM, $468,000; Conversion $574,060) $1,042,060
Question #1: Using the weighted average method, the equivalent unit materials cost for April is?
Question #2: Using the weighted average method, the 4,000 units completed during April will be transferred out at an EUP unit cost of?
