- K-Briggs Company uses the FIFO method to account for the costs of production. For Crushing, the first processing department, the following equivalent units schedule has been prepared: The cost per equivalent unit for the period was as follows: The cost of beginning work in process was direct materials, 40,000; conversion costs, 30,000. Required: 1. Determine the cost of ending work in process and the cost of goods transferred out. 2. Prepare a physical flow schedule.arrow_forwardThe 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.arrow_forwardMaterials are added at the beginning of a production process, and ending work in process inventory is 30% complete with respect to conversion costs. Use the information provided to complete a production cost report using the weighted-average method.arrow_forward
- Given the following information, prepare a production report with materials added at the beginning and ending work in process inventory being 25% complete with regard to conversion costs.arrow_forwardThe Converting Department of Tender Soft Tissue Company uses the weighted average method and had 1,900 units in work in process that were 60% complete at the beginning of the period. During the period, 15,800 units were completed and transferred to the Packing Department. There were 1,200 units in process that were 30% complete at the end of the period. a. Determine the number of whole units to be accounted for and to be assigned costs for the period. b. Determine the number of equivalent units of production for the period. Assume that direct materials are placed in process during production.arrow_forwardSeacrest 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.arrow_forward
- Aero Aluminum Inc. uses a process cost system. The records for May show the following information: Required: Prepare a cost of production summary for each department. (Hint: When preparing the Converting production summary, refer to the Rolling production summary for the costs transferred in during the month.)arrow_forwardThe following data appeared in the accounting records of Craig Manufacturing Inc., which uses the weighted average cost method: Case 1All materials are added at the beginning of the process, and labor and factory overhead are added evenly throughout the process. Case 2One-half of the materials are added at the start of the manufacturing process, and the balance of the materials is added when the units are one-half completed. Labor and factory overhead are applied evenly during the process. Make the following computations for each case: a. Unit cost of materials, labor, and factory overhead for the month b. Cost of the units finished and transferred during the month c. Cost of the units in process at the end of the montharrow_forwardThe Converting Department of Worley Company had 2,400 units in work in process at the beginning of the period, which were 35% complete. During the period, 10,800 units were completed and transferred to the Packing Department. There were 1,900 units in process at the end of the period, which were 60% complete. Direct materials are placed into the process at the beginning of production. Determine the number of equivalent units of production with respect to direct materials and conversion costs.arrow_forward
- Activity cost pools, activity rates, and product costs using activity-based costing Caldwell Home Appliances Inc. is estimating the activity cost associated with producing ovens and refrigerators. The indirect labor can be traced into four separate activity pools, based on time records provided by the employees. The budgeted activity cost and activity-base information are provided as follows: The estimated activity-base usage and unit information for two product lines was determined as follows: A. Determine the activity rate for each activity cost pool. B. Determine the activity-based cost per unit of each product.arrow_forwardSonoma 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.arrow_forwardCost of production report The debits to Work in ProcessRoasting Department for Morning Brew Coffee Company for August, together with information concerning production, are as follows: All direct materials are placed in process at the beginning of production. A. Prepare a cost of production report, presenting the following computations: 1. Direct materials and conversion equivalent units of production for August 2. Direct materials and conversion costs per equivalent unit for August 3. Cost of goods finished during August 4. Cost of work in process at August 31 B. Compute and evaluate the change in cost per equivalent unit for direct materials and conversion from the previous month (July).arrow_forward
