Question

The Smelting Department of Kiner Company has the following production and cost data for November. Production: Beginning work in process 2,100 units that are 100% complete as to materials and 20% complete as to conversion costs; units transferred out 9,100 units; and ending work in process 7,100 units that are 100% complete as to materials and 40% complete as to conversion costs. Compute the equivalent units of production for (a) materials and (b) conversion costs for the month of November.

Answer 1

A. 16,200

B. 11,940

Step-by-step explanation:

Computation for the equivalent units of production for (a) materials and (b) conversion costs for the month of November.

A. Equivalent units of production for materials Materials

Total equivalent units= 9100 + (7100*100%)

Total equivalent units= 9100+7100

Total equivalent units= 16,200

B.Equivalent units of production for conversion costs

Total equivalent units= 9100+ (7100*40%)

Total equivalent units=9100+2840

Total equivalent units= 11,940

Therefore the equivalent units of production for (a) materials is 16,200 and (b) conversion costs for the month of November is 11,940
