Question

A).

Equivalent Units of Materials Cost

The Filling Department of Eve Cosmetics Company had 3,200 ounces in beginning work in process inventory (60% complete). During the period, 53,000 ounces were completed. The ending work in process inventory was 2,700 ounces (40% complete).

What are the total equivalent units for direct materials if materials are added at the beginning of the process?

B).

artment of Eve Cosmetics Company had 2,900 ounces in beginning work in process inventory (80% complete). During the period, 47,500 ounces were completed. The ending work in process inventory was 2,400 ounces (10% complete).

What are the total equivalent units for conversion costs?

If required, round to the nearest unit.

C).

Cost per Equivalent Unit

The cost of direct materials transferred into the Filling Department of Eve Cosmetics Company is $171,270. The conversion cost for the period in the Filling Department is $306,800. The total equivalent units for direct materials and conversion are 51,900 ounces and 59,000 ounces, respectively.

Determine the direct materials and conversion costs per equivalent unit. If required, round to the nearest cent.

$ per ounce

D).

Cost of Units Transferred Out and Ending Work in Process

The costs per equivalent unit of direct materials and conversion in the Filling Department of Eve Cosmetics Company are $1.75 and $0.70, respectively. The equivalent units to be assigned costs are as follows:

The beginning work in process inventory had a cost of $2,610. Determine the cost of completed and transferred-out production and the ending work in process inventory. If required, round to the nearest dollar.

E).

Process Cost Journal Entries

The cost of materials transferred into the Rolling Department of Keystone Steel Company is $574,400 from the Casting Department. The conversion cost for the period in the Rolling Department is $110,100 ($62,200 factory overhead applied and $47,900 direct labor). The total cost transferred to Finished Goods for the period was $689,600. The Rolling Department had a beginning inventory of $22,500.

Explanation / Answer

Solution:

Problem A – Equivalent Units of Materials Cost

It is assumed that the company is following First in First Out Method in process costing.

Beginning Work in Process inventory = 3200 ounces

Completed units during the period = 53,000 ounces

Ending Work In Process Inventory = 2700 ounces

Since material is added at the beginning of process, it means material when added it is complete 100% in all respect because all the material added at beginning.

Therefore, the percentage of completion given in the question is related to Conversion Cost.
