Chapter 5, Problem 5.40BE

Complete five-step procedure in first department (Learning Objective 3)

The Bright Day Paint Company prepares and packages paint products. The company has two departments: (1) Blending and (2) Packaging. Direct materials are added at the beginning of the blending process (dyes) and at the end of the packaging process (cans). Conversion costs are incurred evenly throughout each process. Data from the month of June for the Blending Department are as follows:

Gallons:  
Beginning work in process inventory 0
Started production 9,600 gallons
Completed and transferred out to Packaging in June 6,800 gallons
Ending work in process inventory (45% of the way through the blending process) 2,800 gallons
Costs:  
Beginning work in process inventory $0
Costs added during June:  
Direct materials (dyes) $6,240
Direct labor 950
Manufacturing overhead 1.871
Total costs added during June 59,061

Requirements

  1. 1. Fill in the time line for the Blending Department,
  2. 2. Summarize the physical flow of units and compute total equivalent units for direct materials and for conversion costs.
  3. 3. Summarize total costs to account for and find the cost per equivalent unit for direct materials and for conversion costs.
  4. 4. Assign total costs to units (gallons):
    1. a. Completed and transferred out to the Packaging Department
    2. b. In the Blending Department ending work in process inventory
  5. 5. What is the average cost per gallon transferred out of the Blending Department to the Packaging Department? Why would the company’s managers want to know this cost?

The cutting department of Legacy Production Company started 40,000 units of specialized chairs during the month of March.  The department incurred $15,000 in direct material costs; 2,500 direct labor hours paid at $10 per hour; and manufacturing overhead applied at 150% of direct labor cost.  Legacy Production Company uses process costing to accumulate costs.  NOTE: There was no beginning inventory in March. Required (Excel Template  downloadProvided):  (Module Learning Outcomes LO5.1 through LO5.5 AND Course Learning Outcome #1 & #2) Calculate the conversion costs incurred during the month of March (show your calculations). Assume, that only 30,000 units were completed and transferred out.  The remaining units left in ending inventroy are only 70% complete with respect to conversion costs.  Direct materials are added at the beginning of the process.  Prepare a Cutting Department cost production report for the month of March Refer to the cost production report in part b.  What are…
