PART 2
All Things Brass produces brass handles for the furniture industry in a four-stage process -Mixing,
Moulding, Polishing and Packaging. Costs incurred in the Polishing Department during January are
summarized as follows:
WIP - Polishing Process A/C
$ 0
January 1 Bal.
Transfer from Moulding
20,000 1,310,000
391,600
Direct Materials Added
Direct Labour
638,000
Manufacturing Overhead
307,400
Normal losses are estimated to be 2%% of input during the period. Inspection takes place during the
processing operation, at which point damaged handles are separated from good handles and sold as scrap
to local furniture manufacturers at $85 each.
At inspection, 2,000 handles were rejected as scrap. These units had reached the following degree of
completion:
Transfer from Moulding
100%
Direct material added
40%
Conversion costs
20%
Work-in-progress at the end of January was 4,000 handles and had reached the following degree of
completion:
Transfer from Moulding
100%
Direct material added
80%
Conversion costs
50%
Direct materials added and conversion costs are incurred uniformly throughout the process.
Required:
(a)
Prepare a statement of equivalent production to determine the equivalent units for direct materials
(From Moulding & Direct Material Added), and conversion costs and the cost per equivalent unit for
direct materials and conversion costs.
(b)
Calculate the:
Total cost of units completed and transferred to the Packaging Department
- Cost of the unexpected losses
Cost of ending work-in-process inventory in the Polishing Department
(c)
Complete All Things Brass Work-In-Process Inventory - Polishing Process T-account, clearly showing the
ending balance.
(d)
Prepare the journal entries for the:
assignment of direct materials, direct labour incurred, and the manufacturing overhead applied to
the Polishing Process
cost of the units completed and transferred out to the Packaging Process
(e)
Given that 30% of the unexpected losses were because of pilferage, prepare the abnormal spoilage
statement, clearly showing All Things Brass true loss associated with the Polishing Process.
