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.
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.
Gunnison Company had the following equivalent units schedule and cost information for its Sewing Department for the month of December: Required: 1. Calculate the unit cost for December, using the FIFO method. 2. Calculate the cost of goods transferred out, calculate the cost of EWIP, and reconcile the costs assigned with the costs to account for. 3. What if you were asked for the unit cost from the month of November? Calculate Novembers unit cost and explain why this might be of interest to management.
Lansing. Inc., provided the following data for its two producing departments: Machine hours are used to assign the overhead of the Molding Department, and direct labor hours are used to assign the overhead of the Polishing Department. There are 30,000 units of Form A produced and sold and 50,000 of Form B. Required: 1. Calculate the overhead rates for each department. 2. Using departmental rates, assign overhead to live two products and calculate the overhead cost per unit. How does this compare with the plantwide rate unit cost, using direct labor hours? 3. What if the machine hours in Molding were 1,200 for Form A and 3,800 for Form B and the direct labor hours used in Polishing were 5,000 and 15,000, respectively? Calculate the overhead cost per unit for each product using departmental rates, and compare with the plantwide rate unit costs calculated in Requirement 2. What can you conclude from this outcome?
Tanaka Manufacturing Co. uses the process cost system. The following information for the month of December was obtained from the company’s books and from the production reports submitted by the department heads: Required: Prepare cost of production summaries for the Mixing, Blending, and Bottling (Hint: You must calculate the adjusted unit cost from Blending.) departments. Prepare a departmental cost work sheet. Draft the journal entries required to record the month’s operations. Prepare a statement of cost of goods manufactured for December. (Hint: Goods finished but not transferred to finished goods are considered part of work in process inventory.)
Aero Aluminum Inc. uses a process cost system. The records for May show the following information: Required: Prepare a cost of production summary for each department. (Hint: When preparing the Converting production summary, refer to the Rolling production summary for the costs transferred in during the month.)
The cost accountant for River Rock Beverage Co. estimated that total factory overhead cost for the Blending Department for the coming fiscal year beginning February 1 would be 3,150,000, and total direct labor costs would be 1,800,000. During February, the actual direct labor cost totalled 160,000, and factory overhead cost incurred totaled 283,900. a. What is the predetermined factory overhead rate based on direct labor cost? b. Journalize the entry to apply factory overhead to production for February. c. What is the February 28 balance of the account Factory OverheadBlending Department? d. Does the balance in part (c) represent over- or underapplied factory overhead?
Using the same data found in Exercise 6.22, assume the company uses the FIFO method. Required: Prepare a schedule of equivalent units, and compute the unit cost for the month of December. 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.

Morrison Company had the equivalent units schedule and cost information for its Sewing Department for the month of December, as shown on the next page. Required: 1. Calculate the unit cost for December, using the weighted average method. 2. Calculate the cost of goods transferred out, calculate the cost of EWIP, and reconcile the costs assigned with the costs to account for. 3. What if you were asked to show that the weighted average unit cost for materials is the blend of the November unit materials cost and the December unit materials cost? The November unit materials cost is 6.60 (66,000/10,000), and the December unit materials cost is 12.22 (550,000/45,000). The equivalent units in BWIP are 10,000, and the FIFO equivalent units are 45,000. Calculate the weighted average unit materials cost using weights defined as the proportion of total units completed from each source (BWIP output and current output).
