Explanation / Answer
1 Work in process, May 31 = 530+1760-1540= 750 2 Equivalent units for materials = 1540+750= 2290 The unit materials cost for May =(5840+2440)/2290= 3.616 3 Equivalent units for conversion = 1540+(750*40%)= 1840 The unit materials cost for May =(2630+1780+1450)/1840= 3.185 4 The total cost of units transferred out in May=1540*(3.616+3.185)= 10474 5 Work in process =(750*3.616)+(750*40%*3.185)= 3668
