Problem 16-2A (50 minutes)
Part 1
(a) and (b) Equivalent units with respect to direct materials and conversion
Equivalent units of production (EUP)
Units completed and transferred out ……………….
Units of ending Work in Process …………………….
Direct materials (180,000 x 100%) ………………
Conversion (180,000 x 30%)……………………….
Total equivalent units of production ………………..
Part 2
Cost per equivalent unit of production
Costs of beginning Work in Process ………………………
Costs incurred this period ……………………………..………
Total costs …………………………………………………….…
÷ Equivalent units of production …………………….…….
Cost per equivalent unit of production ……………………
Part 3 Assigning product costs to units
Direct materials (700,000 EUP x $3.00 per EUP) …….
Conversion (700,000 EUP x $4.50 per EUP) ……….….
(a) Total costs transferred out …………………………..
Costs of ending work in process
Direct materials (180,000 EUP x $3.00 per EUP) …….
Conversion (54,000 EUP x $4.50 per EUP) …………….
(b) Total costs of ending work in process ………….….
Total costs accounted for* ………………………………….….
*This equals the sum of the total direct materials cost and the
total conversion costs ($2,640,000 + $3,393,000 = $6,033,000).
