Sunspot Beverages, Ltd., of Fiji uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system. It makes blended tropical fruit drinks in two stages. Fruit juices are extracted from fresh fruits and then blended in the Blending Department. The blended juices are then bottled and packed for shipping in the Bottling Department. The following information pertains to the operations of the Blending Department for June Percent Completed Units Materials Conversion Work in process, beginning Started into production Completed and transferred out Work in process, ending 76,000 375,500 365,500 86,000 70% 40% 75% 25% Work in process, beginning Cost added during June Materials Conversion $ 29,000 10,200 310,700 218,130 Required: 1. Calculate the Blending Department's equivalent units of production for materials and conversion in June 2. Calculate the Blending Department's cost per equivalent unit for materials and conversion in June 3. Calculate the Blending Department's cost of ending work in process inventory for materials, conversion, and in total for June 4. Calculate the Blending Department's cost of units transferred out to the Bottling Department for materials, conversion, and in total for June 5. Prepare a cost reconciliation report for the Blending Department for JuneExplanation / Answer
1) Equivalent unit of material = 365500+(86000*75%) = 430000
Equivalent unit of conversion = 365500+(86000*25%) = 387000
2) Calculate cost per equivalent unit
Material = (29000+310700)/430000 = 0.79
Conversion = (10200+218130)/387000 = 0.59
3) Calculate cost of ending work in process :
4) Calculate cost of units transferred out
5) Cost reconciliation :
Material Conversion Total Cost of ending work in process 86000*75%*.79 = 50955 86000*25%*.59 = 12685 63640Related Questions
