Exercise 16-6 (30 minutes)
1.
Equivalent units of production—Weighted average
Direct
Materials Conversion
Units completed & transferred out (295,000 x 100%)...........295,000 295,000
Units of ending work in process
Direct materials, 30,000 x 80%……………………..……….………24,000
2.
Cost per equivalent unit—Weighted average
Direct
Materials Conversion
Costs of beginning work in process…………..……………. $ 44,800 $ 15,300
Costs incurred this period…………..……………….…..…….. 1,231,200 896,700
Cost per equivalent unit of production….……….…........ $4.00 per
EUP
$3.00 per
EUP
3.
Cost assignment—Weighted average
Costs of units transferred out
Direct materials (295,000 EUP x $4.00 per EUP)...... $1,180,000
Conversion (295,000 EUP x $3.00 per EUP)……….…. 885,000
Total costs transferred out……………….……….…………… $2,065,000
Costs of ending work in process
Total costs assigned*…………..………………………………… $2,188,000
*Equals costs to account for of $2,188,000, computed as $60,100 + $1,231,200 + $896,700
