Crane Instrument Company uses a process costing system. A unit of product passes through three departments-moulding, assembly, and finishing-before it is completed. The following activity took place in the finishing department during May: Units Work in process inventory, May 1 2,100 Transferred in from the assembly department 14,200 Completed and transferred out to finished goods inventory 12,000 Raw material is added at the beginning of processing in the finishing department. The work in process inventory was 70% complete in terms of conversion costs on May 1 and 40% complete in terms of conversion costs on May 31. Crane Instrument Company uses the weighted-average method. The equivalent units and current period costs per equivalent unit of production for each cost factor are as follows for the finishing department: Current Period Costs Equivalent per Units Equivalent Unit Transferred-in costs 15,100 $6.30 Raw materials 15,100 2.30 Conversion costs 13,350 4.10 Total $12.70

For April, the following equivalent units schedule was prepared for the first department: Costs assigned to beginning work in process: direct materials, 90,000; conversion costs, 33,750. Manufacturing costs incurred during April: direct materials, 75,000; conversion costs, 220,000. Holmes uses the weighted average method. Required: 1. Compute the unit cost for April. 2. Determine the cost of ending work in process and the cost of goods transferred out.
Sonoma Products Inc. manufactures a liquid product in one department. Due to the nature of the product and the process, units are regularly lost during production. Materials and conversion costs are added evenly throughout the process. The following summaries were prepared for March: Calculate the unit cost for materials, labor, and factory overhead for March and show the costs of units transferred to finished goods and to ending work in process inventory.
Seacrest Company uses a process-costing system. The company manufactures a product that is processed in two departments: A and B. As work is completed, it is transferred out. All inputs are added uniformly in Department A. The following summarizes the production activity and costs for November: Required: 1. Using the weighted average method, prepare the following for Department A: (a) a physical flow schedule, (b) an equivalent unit calculation, (c) calculation of unit costs (Note: Round to four decimal places.), (d) cost of EWIP and cost of goods transferred out, and (e) a cost reconciliation. 2. CONCEPTUAL CONNECTION Prepare journal entries that show the flow of manufacturing costs for Department A. Use a conversion cost control account for conversion costs. Many firms are now combining direct labor and overhead costs into one category. They are not tracking direct labor separately. Offer some reasons for this practice.
The following information concerns production in the Finishing Department for May. The Finishing Department uses the weighted average method. a.
