Question

Graham Petroleum produces oil. On May 1, it had no work-in-process inventory. It started production of 244 million barrels of oil in May and shipped 216 million barrels in the pipeline. The costs of the resources used by Graham in May consist of the following: Materials $ 3,245 million Conversion costs (labor and overhead) $ 3,230 million

Required: The production supervisor estimates that the ending work-in-process is 60 percent complete on May 31. Compute the cost of oil shipped in the pipeline and the amount in work-in-process ending inventory as of May 31. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answers in millions. For example, enter "1" instead of "1,000,000".)

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of completed barrels = 216 + (244-216)*60%

= 233 barrels

Cost per barrel = (3245+3230)/233 = 27.8

Cost of oil shipped in pipeline = 216 * 27.8= 6003 millions

Cost of work in process ending inventory = (244-216)*60% * 27.8

= 467.04 million
