Holmes Products, Inc., produces plastic cases used for video cameras. The product passes through three departments. 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.
Kenkel, Ltd. uses backflush costing to account for its manufacturing costs. The trigger points are the purchase of materials, the completion of goods, and the sale of goods. Prepare journal entries to account for the following: a. Purchased raw materials, on account, 80,000. b. Requisitioned raw materials to production, 80,000. c. Distributed direct labor costs, 10,000. d. Factory overhead costs incurred, 60,000. (Use Various Credits for the account in the credit part of the entry.) e.

During December, Krause Chemical Company had the following selected data concerning the manufacture of Xyzine, an industrial cleaner: All materials are added at the beginning of processing in this department, and conversion costs are added uniformly during the process. The beginning work in process inventory had 120 of raw materials and 180 of conversion costs incurred. Materials added during December were 540, and conversion costs of 1,484 were incurred. Krause uses the first-in, first-out (FIFO) process cost method. The equivalent units of production used to compute conversion costs for December were: a. 110 units. b. 104 units. c. 100 units. d. 92 units.
Narwhal Swimwear has a beginning work in process inventory of 13,500 units and transferred in 130,000 units before ending the month with 14,000 units that were 100% complete with regard to materials and 30% complete with regard to conversion costs. The cost per unit of material is $5.80 and the cost per unit for conversion is $8.20 per unit. Using the weighted-average method, what is the amount of material and conversion costs assigned to the department for the month?

Vexar manufactures nails. Manufacturing is a one-step process where the nails are forged. This is the information related to this years production: Â Ending inventory was 100% complete as to materials and 70% complete as to conversion, and the total materials cost is $115,080 and the total conversion cost is $72,072. Using the weighted-average method, what are the unit costs if the company transferred out 34,000 units? Using the weighted-average method, prepare the companys process cost summary for the month.
Proteger Company manufactures insect repellant lotion. The Mixing Department, the first process department, mixes the chemicals required for the repellant. The following data are for the current year: Direct materials are added at the beginning of the process. Ending inventory is 95 percent complete with respect to direct labor and overhead. The cost of goods transferred out for the year is: a. 4,471,200 b. 3,571,200 c. 3,780,000 d. 3,024,000
