A $ 15,300 B $ 21,600 C $ 36,900 D $ 34,050 E None of the above How much is the cost of equivalent unit for Materials and Conversion? (Choose the closest answer.)

Answer 1

450 units and 450 units

D $48 $34

C $36,900

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a. For Production completed during June is

Before computing it first we have to determine the units completed and transferred out which is

= Beginning work in process units + production started units - ending work in process units

= 175 units + 400 units - 125 units

= 450 units

Now the equivalent units of production is

Particulars Material Conversion

Units completed & transferred out 450 units 450 units

+ Ending equivalent units

(Ending work in process units × percentage completion) 50 units 13 units

So,

Equivalent units of production 500 units 463 units

b. Now the cost of equivalent units for material and conversion cost is

Particulars Materials Conversion

Beginning work in process cost $4,000 $325

+ Cost added $20,000 $15,400

Total cost $24,000 $15,725

Divide it Equivalent units of

production 500 units 463 units

Cost of equivalent unit $48 $34

c. The cost of units transferred out is

Particulars Materials Conversion

Units completed

and transferred out 450 units 450 units

Multiplied by cost of

equivalent unit $48 $34

Cost of units transferred out

to next department $21,600 + $15,300 = $36,900
