- Use the following information for Brief Exercises 6-29 and 6-30: Aztec Inc. produces soft drinks. Mixing is the first department, and its output is measured in gallons. Aztec uses the FIFO method. All manufacturing costs are added uniformly. For July, the mixing department provided the following information: 6-30 (Appendix 6A) FIFO; Production Report Refer to the information for Aztec Inc. on the previous page. Required: Prepare a production report.arrow_forwardJackson Products produces a barbeque sauce using three departments: Cooking, Mixing, and Bottling. In the Cooking Department, all materials are added at the beginning of the process. Output is measured in ounces. The production data for July are as follows: With respect to conversion costs. Required: 1. Prepare a physical flow schedule for July. 2. Prepare an equivalent units schedule for July using the weighted average method. 3. What if you were asked to calculate the FIFO units beginning with the weighted average equivalent units? Calculate the weighted average equivalent units by subtracting out the prior-period output found in BWIP.arrow_forwardUsing 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.arrow_forward

Output is measured in ounces. The production data for July are as follows: With respect to conversion costs. Required: 1. Prepare a physical flow schedule for July. 2. Prepare an equivalent units schedule for July using the FIFO method. 3. What if 60 percent of the materials were added at the beginning of the process and 40 percent were added at the end of the process (all ingredients used are treated as the same type or category of materials)? How many equivalent units of materials would there be?arrow_forwardUse the following information for Brief Exercises 6-39 and 6-40: Saludable Inc. produces a freeze-dried kale powder. Drying is the first department, and its output is measured in pounds. Saludable uses the FIFO method. All manufacturing costs are added uniformly. For November, the drying department provided the following information: 6-39 (Appendix 6A) First-In, First-Out Method; Equivalent Units Refer to the information for Saludable Inc. above. Required: 1. Calculate the equivalent units for November. 2. Calculate the unit cost. (Note: Round to two decimal places.) 3. Assign costs to units transferred out and EWIP using the FIFO method.arrow_forwardDuring 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.arrow_forward
- 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.arrow_forwardUse the following information for Problems 6-62 and 6-63: Millie Company produces a product that passes through an assembly process and a finishing process. All manufacturing costs are added uniformly for both processes. The following information was obtained for the assembly department for June: a. WIP, June 1, had 24,000 units (60% completed) and the following costs: b. During June, 70,000 units were completed and transferred to the finishing department, and the following costs were added to production: c. On June 30, there were 10,000 partially completed units in process. These units were 70% complete. 6-62 Weighted Average Method, Single-Department Analysis Refer to the information for Millie Company above. Required: Prepare a production report for the assembly department for June using the weighted average method of costing. The report should disclose the physical flow of units, equivalent units, and unit costs and should track the disposition of manufacturing costs.arrow_forwardUse the following information for Problems 6-62 and 6-63: Millie Company produces a product that passes through an assembly process and a finishing process.

- Use the following information for Brief Exercises 6-39 and 6-40: Saludable Inc. produces a freeze-dried kale powder. Drying is the first department, and its output is measured in pounds. Saludable uses the FIFO method. All manufacturing costs are added uniformly. For November, the drying department provided the following information: 6-40 (Appendix 6A) FIFO; Production Report Refer to the information for Saludable Inc. on the previous page. Required: Prepare a production report.arrow_forwardCassien Inc. manufactures products that pass through two or more processes. During June, equivalent units were computed using the weighted average method: Required: 1. Calculate the unit cost for June using the weighted average method. 2. Using the weighted average method, determine the cost of EWIP and the cost of the goods transferred out. 3. CONCEPTUAL CONNECTION Cassien had just finished implementing a series of measures designed to reduce the unit cost to 2.00 and was assured that this had been achieved and should be realized for Junes production. Yet, upon seeing the unit cost for June, the president of the company was disappointed. Can you explain why the full effect of the cost reductions may not show up in June? What can you suggest to overcome this problem?arrow_forwardMorrison Company had the equivalent units schedule and cost information for its Sewing Department for the month of December, as shown on the next page. Required: 1. Calculate the unit cost for December, using the weighted average method. 2. Calculate the cost of goods transferred out, calculate the cost of EWIP, and reconcile the costs assigned with the costs to account for. 3. What if you were asked to show that the weighted average unit cost for materials is the blend of the November unit materials cost and the December unit materials cost? The November unit materials cost is 6.60 (66,000/10,000), and the December unit materials cost is 12.22 (550,000/45,000). The equivalent units in BWIP are 10,000, and the FIFO equivalent units are 45,000. Calculate the weighted average unit materials cost using weights defined as the proportion of total units completed from each source (BWIP output and current output).arrow_forward
