Question

Kentucky Corporation uses a process-cost accounting system. The company adds direct materials at the start of its production process; conversion cost, on the other hand, is incurred evenly throughout manufacturing. The firm has no beginning work-in-process inventory; its ending work in process is 40% complete. Which of the following sets of percentages would be used to calculate the correct number of equivalent units in the ending work-in-process inventory? Materials, 40%; conversion cost, 40%. Materials, 40%; conversion cost, 100%. Materials, 100%; conversion cost, 40%. Materials, 100%; conversion cost, 60%. Materials, 100%; conversion cost, 100%.

Explanation / Answer

Materials 100% and conversion cost 40%

since material is added at the beginnning so considered 100% complete and since ending is 40% complete so for conversion it will be 40%
