Mello Manufacturing Company is a diversified manufacturer that manufactures three products (Alpha, Beta, and Omega) in a continuous production process. Senior management has asked the controller to conduct an activity-based costing study. The controller identified the amount of factory overhead required by the critical activities Activity-Based Product Costing of the organization as follows: Activity Cost Pool Activity $259,200 Production Setup 55,000 Materials handling 9,750 Inspection 60,000 Product engineering 123,200 Total $507,150 The activity bases identified for each activity are as follows: Activity Activity Base Production Machine hours Setup Number of setups Materials handling Number of parts Inspection Product engineering Number of inspection hours Number of engineering hours he activity-base usage quantities and units produced for the three products were determined from corporate records and are as follows: Number of Number of Previous Next
Part A The following data show the units in beginning work in process inventory, the number of units started, the number of units transferred, and the percent completion of the ending work in process for conversion. Given that materials are added at the beginning of the process, what are the equivalent units for material and conversion costs for each quarter using the weighted - average method? Assume that the quarters are independent. \table [[Beginning ,,], [Quarter, \table [[Work in], [Process]], Started, Out, (%)],[1,, 255, 000, 235,50], [2, 2, 500, 275, 000, 250, 40], [3, 3, 600, 290, 000, 275,000, 45], [4, 6, 500, 300,000, 280, 000,60]]
