9. The Modelling Department of AMC Inc. incurred $295,000 in direct material costs and $120,600 in conversion costs during the period. The beginning work-in-process inventory costs include $25,000 in direct material costs and $38,000 in conversion costs. The equivalent units of production for direct materials and conversion costs are 8,000 and 5,200, respectively. At the end of the period, 4,500 units are completed and transferred to the next processing department.

Compute the costs per equivalent units for conversion costs under the weighted-average method. (Round your answer to the nearest cent.)

11. Floyd Inc. produces the following three items of stuffed toys using an automated technology: Bear, Puppy, and Bunny. The estimation for the number of units produced, machine hours used, and direct labor hours used for each toy during the current year is as follows:

 Product

Number of units  Machine hours (MH) Direct labor hours (DLH)
Bear 2,000 8,000 MH 700 DLH
Puppy 3,000 5,000 MH  1,000 DLH
Bunny 5,000 4,000 MH 2,300 DLH

The total machine running costs incurred during the year is $204,000. The allocation of machine running costs to these three items is based on machine hours. How much machine running costs are expected to be allocated to Puppy during the year?

Group of answer choices

$60,000

 

$8,400

 

$96,000

 

$48,000

12. Evergreen Inc. expects to manufacture 4,000 refrigerators during the last quarter of the current year. The company uses activity-based costing to determine the product costs. The manufacturing activities and associated information is provided as follows:

Overhead activities  Overhead costs assigned ($)  Number of cost driver
Material handling 120,000 240,000 Parts
Devising 400,000 50,000 Machine hours (MH)
Assembling 168,000 240,000 Parts
Finishing  120,000 2,000 Finishing hours (FH)

Each refrigerator uses 30 parts and requires 5 machine hours and 1 finishing hour during the production process. The direct material costs and direct labor costs required for each refrigerator is $500 and $90 respectively.

The amount of finishing costs allocated to each refrigerator would be: (Round your answer to two decimal points)

Group of answer choices

$15.00 per unit

 

$8.00 per unit

 

$21.00 per unit

 

$60.00 per unit
