Answer
Explanation:
Step1: Calculate equivalent - units of production (EUP) for direct materials and conversion
For direct materials: Since direct materials are 100% complete in ending work - in - process, EUP for direct materials = Units completed and transferred out+Ending work - in - process units = 21000 + 7000=28000 units For conversion: EUP for conversion = Units completed and transferred out+(Ending work - in - process units×Percent complete for conversion) = 21000+(7000×0.25)=21000 + 1750 = 22750 units
Step2: Calculate cost per equivalent - unit (EUP) for direct materials and conversion
Cost per EUP for direct materials=$\frac{\text{Total direct materials cost}}{\text{EUP for direct materials}}$ Total direct materials cost = 4785+373120 = 377905 Cost per EUP for direct materials=$\frac{377905}{28000}\approx13.49$ Cost per EUP for conversion=$\frac{\text{Total conversion cost}}{\text{EUP for conversion}}$ Total conversion cost = 15543+836112 = 851655 Cost per EUP for conversion=$\frac{851655}{22750}\approx37.44$
Step3: Allocate costs to units completed and transferred out and ending work - in - process
Cost of units completed and transferred out: Direct materials cost = 21000×13.49 = 283290 Conversion cost = 21000×37.44 = 786240 Total cost of units completed and transferred out = 283290+786240 = 1069530 Cost of ending work - in - process: Direct materials cost = 7000×13.49 = 94430 Conversion cost = 1750×37.44 = 65520 Total cost of ending work - in - process = 94430+65520 = 159950
Step4: Prepare the production cost report
| Direct Materials | Conversion | Total | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Costs to account for: | |||
| Beginning work - in - process | 4785 | 15543 | 20328 |
| Costs added this period | 373120 | 836112 | 1209232 |
| Total costs to account for | 377905 | 851655 | 1229560 |
| Equivalent units of production (EUP) | 28000 | 22750 | - |
| Cost per equivalent - unit (EUP) | 13.49 | 37.44 | - |
| Costs accounted for: | |||
| Transferred out | 283290 | 786240 | 1069530 |
| Ending work - in - process | 94430 | 65520 | 159950 |
| Total costs accounted for | 377905 | 851655 | 1229560 |
Answer:
The production cost report is shown above.
