Equivalent Units of Production: Weighted average method
The following information concerns production in the Finishing Department for May. The Finishing Department uses the Weighted average method.
a. Determine the number of units in work in process inventory at the end of the month.
b. Determine the number of whole units to be accounted for and to be assigned costs and the equivalent units of production for May. Assume that direct materials are placed in process during production.
2. Compute the Casing and Curing Department’s cost per equivalent unit for mixing, materials, and conversion for the month of September
a. Based on the data in Exercise 20-7 (Attachment), determine the following for March:1. Direct materials cost per equivalent unit2. Conversion cost per equivalent unit3. Cost of the beginning work in process completed during March4. Cost of units started and completed during March5. Cost of the ending work in processb. Assuming that the direct materials cost is the same for February and March, did the conversion cost per equivalent unit increase, decrease, or remain the same in March?
