Explanation / Answer

1. The journal entry to record June Sales is : Debit Accounts Receivable $ 810,000 Credit Sales $ 810,000 Debit Cost of Goods Sold $ 444,000 Credit Finished Goods Inventory $ 444,000 2. A process cost summary is a managerial accounting report that describes all but the gross profit earned on the sale of products. 3. Total Labor Cost incurred during January = $ 37,100 + $ 294,300 = $ 331,400 Total No. of equivalent units = 78,000 trfd to FG + 65% of 9,000 units = 83,850 units Hence, the direct cost per equivalent unit is                          3.95 $ 4. It is necessary to calculate equivalent units in a process costing environment because all of the work to make a unit 100% complete and ready to move to the next stage of production or to finished goods inventory may not have been completed in a single time period. 5. Tons of Product Percent of Equivalent   Conversion Added Units Converted Beginning Work in Process 2,30,000 60% 92,000 Goods started 5,70,000 100% 5,70,000 Goods completed 6,20,000 100% 6,20,000 Ending Work in Process 1,80,000 70% 1,26,000 Total equivalent units of production with respect to conversion for July = 620,000 + 126,000 = 746,000 units. 6. Total Material Cost incurred during December = $ 57,500 + $ 183,000 = $ 240,500 Total No. of equivalent units = 65,000 trfd to FG + 80% of 15,000 units = 77,000 units Hence, the direct cost per equivalent unit is                          3.12 $
