The company experienced the following operating activity for April: a. Materials issued to Assembly, 24,000 b. Direct labor cost: Assembly, 500 hours at 9.20 per hour; Finishing, 400 hours at 8 per hour c. Overhead applied to production d. Goods transferred to Finishing, 32,500 e. Goods transferred to finished goods warehouse, 20,500 f. Actual overhead incurred, 10,000 Required: 1. Prepare the required journal entries for the preceding transactions. 2. Assuming Assembly and Finishing have no beginning work-in-process inventories, determine the cost of each departments ending work-in-process inventories.
Premier Products Inc. has three departments and uses the process cost system of accounting. A portion of the departmental cost work sheet prepared by the cost accountant at the end of July is reproduced below. Using the data in P5-7: 1. Draft the necessary entries to charge the materials and labor costs to the appropriate work in process accounts, to apply factory overhead to work in process, and to record the transfer of costs from one department to another. 2. Prepare a statement of cost of goods manufactured for the month ended July 31.
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.
Production information shows these costs and units for the smoothing department in August. All materials are added at the beginning of the period. The ending work in process is 30% complete as to conversion. What is the value of the inventory transferred to finished goods and the value of the WIP inventory at the end of the month?
Clearwater Candy Co. had a cost per equivalent pound for the month of 4.56 for materials, 1.75 for labor, and 1.00 for overhead. During the month, 10,250 lb were completed and transferred to finished goods. The 3,200 lb in ending work in process were 100% complete as to materials and 60% complete as to labor and overhead. At the beginning of the month, 1,500 lb were in process, 100% complete as to materials and 50% complete as to labor and overhead. The beginning inventory had a cost of 8,775. Clearwater uses FIFO costing. Required: 1. Calculate the cost of the pounds completed and transferred to finished goods. 2. Calculate the cost of the ending work in process.
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.
During March, the following costs were charged to the manufacturing department: $22,500 for materials; $45,625 for labor; and $50,000 for manufacturing overhead. The records show that 40,000 units were completed and transferred, while 10,000 remained in ending inventory. There were 45,000 equivalent units of material and 42,500 units of conversion costs. Using the weighted-average method, prepare the companys process cost summary for the month.
Using the same data found in Exercise 6.22, assume the company uses the FIFO method. Required: Prepare a schedule of equivalent units, and compute the unit cost for the month of December. Fordman Company has a product that passes through two processes: Grinding and Polishing. During December, the Grinding Department transferred 20,000 units to the Polishing Department. The cost of the units transferred into the second department was 40,000. Direct materials are added uniformly in the second process. Units are measured the same way in both departments. The second department (Polishing) had the following physical flow schedule for December: Costs in beginning work in process for the Polishing Department were direct materials, 5,000; conversion costs, 6,000; and transferred in, 8,000. Costs added during the month: direct materials, 32,000; conversion costs, 50,000; and transferred in, 40,000.
