Dover Chemical Company manufactures specialty chemicals by a series of three processes, all materials being introduced in the Distilling Department. From the Distilling Department, the materials pass through the Reaction and Filling departments, emerging as finished chemicals.
The balance in the account Work in Process—Filling was as follows on January 1:
Work in Process—Filling Department | ||
(3,100 units, 60% completed): | ||
Direct materials (3,100 x $18.1) | $56,110 | |
Conversion (3,100 x 60% x $11.7) | 21,762 | |
$77,872 |
The following costs were charged to Work in Process—Filling during January:
Direct materials transferred from Reaction | ||
Department: 40,000 units at $17.8 a unit | $712,000 | |
Direct labor | 250,310 | |
Factory |
240,490 |
During January, 39,700 units of specialty chemicals were completed. Work in Process—Filling Department on January 31 was 3,400 units, 90% completed.
Required:
1. Prepare a cost of production report for the Filling Department for January. If an amount is zero, enter "0". If required, round your cost per equivalent unit answers to two decimal places.
