Explanation / Answer

Answer 1:-

Calculation of unit cost for materials, for conversion, and in total for the fabrication department for September:-

Unit Material Cost

=($147,000+$1,145,000)/254,000

=$1,292,000/254,000= 5.09

Unit Conversion Cost

=($7,875+$363,895)/227,360

=$371,770/227,360= 1.64

Total Unit Cost=5.09+1.64=6.73
