Expert Solution
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

Given,
Work in process (opening) is 62,500 units.
Units started and completed this month are 175,000 units.

Formula to calculate units transferred to finished goods,

    Unitstransferredtofinishedgoods=( Workinprocess(opening) +Unitsstartedandcompletedthismonth )

Substitute 62,500 units for work in process (opening) and 175,000 units for units started and completed this month.

    Unitstransferredtofinishedgoods=62,500+175,000 =237,500

Hence, units transferred to finished goods are 237,500 units.

Explanation of Solution

For direct material,

Given,
Work in progress (beginning) is 37,500 units.
Completed goods are 175,000 units.
Work in progress (end) is 61,000 units.

Formula to calculate equivalent unit of production (direct material),

    Equivalentunitofproduction( direct material )=( Workinprogress(beginning) +Completedgoods +Workinprogress(end) )

Substitute 37,500 units for work in progress (beginning), 175,000 units for completed goods and 61,000 units for work in progress (end).

    Equivalentunitofproduction( direct material )=37,500+175,000+61,000 =273,500

Hence, equivalent unit of production (direct material) is 273,500 units.

Working notes:

Calculation for work in progress (beginning),

    Workinprogress( beginning )=Unfinsihedgoods×Finishedpercentage =62,500× 60 100 =37,500

Calculation for work in progress (end),

    Workinprogress( end )=Unfinsihedgoods×Finishedpercentage =76,250× 80 100 =61,000

For Conversion:

Given,
Work in progress (beginning) is 12,500 units.
Completed goods are 175,000 units.
Work in progress (end) is 15,250 units.

Formula to calculate equivalent unit of production (Conversion),

    Equivalentunitofproduction( Conversion )=( Workinprogress(beginning) +Completedgoods +Workinprogress(end) )

Substitute 12,500 units for work in progress (beginning), 175,000 units for completed goods and 15,250 units for work in progress (end).

    Equivalentunitofproduction(Conversion)=12,500+175,000+15,250 =202,750

Hence, equivalent unit of production (conversion) is 202,750 units.

Working notes:

Calculation for work in progress (beginning),

    Workinprogress( beginning )=Unfinsihedgoods×Finishedpercentage =62,500× 20 100 =12,500

Calculation for work in progress (end),

    Workinprogress( end )=Unfinsihedgoods×Finishedpercentage =76,250× 20 100 =15,250

To determine

To compute: Cost per equivalent unit of production.

Explanation of Solution

For direct material:

Given,
Total direct material cost is $683,750.
Total EUP (Direct Material) is 273,500 units.

Formula to calculate cost per equivalent unit of production,

    CostperEUP(directmaterial)= Totaldirectmaterialcost TotalEUP(directmaterial)

Substitute, $683,750 for total direct material cost and 273,500 units for total EUP (direct material) in the above equation.

    CostperEUP(directmaterial)= $683,750 273,500 =$2.5

Hence, cost per EUP (direct material) is $2.5.

For conversion:

Given,
Total conversion cost is $446,050.
Total EUP (Conversion) is 202,750 units.

Formula to calculate cost per equivalent unit of production,

    CostperEUP(conversion)= Totaldirectconversioncost TotalEUP(conversion)

Substitute, $446,050 for total conversion cost and 202,750 units for total EUP (Conversion) in the above equation.

    CostperEUP(conversion)= $446,750 202,750 =$2.20

Hence, cost per EUP (conversion) is $2.20.

Hence, total cost of transferred goods and work in process (ending) is $1,096,318 and $186,050, respectively.

Working notes:

Calculation of complete work in process (beginning),

Calculation for direct material,

    Directmaterial=( NumberofEquivalentunitofproduction ×CostperEquivalentunitofproduction ) =37,500×$2.50 =$93,750

Calculation for conversion,

    Directlabor=( Numberofequivalentunitofproduction ×Costperequivalentunitofproduction ) =12,500×$2.20 =$27,500
