1. Cost of Production Report
The Cutting Department of Karachi Carpet Company provides the following data for January. Assume that all materials are added at the beginning of the process.
Work in process, January 1, 11,800 units, 60% completed | $152,928* | |
*Direct materials (11,800 $10.2) | $120,360 | |
Conversion (11,800 60% $4.6) | 32,568 | |
$152,928 | ||
Materials added during January from Weaving Department, 181,600 units | $1,879,560 | |
Direct labor for January | 382,900 | |
Factory overhead for January | 467,988 | |
Goods finished during January (includes goods in process, January 1), 183,800 units | ||
Work in process, January 31, 9,600 units, 45% completed |
a. Prepare a cost of production report for the Cutting Department. If an amount is zero or a blank, enter in "0". For the cost per equivalent unit computations, round your answers to two decimal places.

2. Costs per Equivalent Unit
Georgia Products Inc. completed and transferred 192,000 particle board units of production from the Pressing Department. There was no beginning inventory in process in the department. The ending in-process inventory was 17,000 units, which were 3/4 complete as to conversion cost. All materials are added at the beginning of the process. Direct materials cost incurred was $950,950, direct labor cost incurred was $49,750, and factory overhead applied was $11,675.
Determine the following for the Pressing Department. Round "cost per equivalent unit" answers to the nearest cent.
a. Total conversion cost | $ |
b. Conversion cost per equivalent unit | $ |
c. Direct materials cost per equivalent unit | $ |
3. Cost of Units Completed and in Process
The charges to Work in ProcessAssembly Department for a period, together with information concerning production, are as follows. All direct materials are placed in process at the beginning of production.
Work in ProcessAssembly Department | |||
---|---|---|---|
Bal., 2,000 units, 30% completed | 5,060 | To Finished Goods, 46,000 units | ? |
Direct materials, 47,000 units @ $1.3 | 61,100 | ||
Direct labor | 145,700 | ||
Factory overhead | 56,700 | ||
Bal. ? units, 20% completed | ? |
Cost per equivalent units of $1.30 for Direct Materials and $4.40 for Conversion Costs.
a. Based on the above data, determine the different costs listed below.
If required, round your interim calculations to two decimal places.
1. Cost of beginning work in process inventory completed this period. | $ |
2. Cost of units transferred to finished goods during the period. | $ |
3. Cost of ending work in process inventory. | $ |
4. Cost per unit of the completed beginning work in process inventory, rounded to the nearest cent. | $ |
b. Did the production costs change from the preceding period?
c. Assuming that the direct materials cost per unit did not change from the preceding period, did the conversion costs per equivalent unit increase, decrease, or remain the same for the current period?
4. Equivalent Units of Production
The Converting Department of Hopkinsville Company had 600 units in work in process at the beginning of the period, which were 30% complete. During the period, 12,400 units were completed and transferred to the Packing Department. There were 680 units in process at the end of the period, which were 30% 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. If an amount is zero, enter in "0".
