1.FreshOrganics
makes organic yogurt. The onlyingredients, milk and bacteriacultures, are added at the very beginning of the fermentation process. At monthend,
FreshOrganics
has
150,000
cups of yogurt that are only
31%
of the way through the fermentation process. Use the equivalent unit formula to answer thefollowing:
a. | How many equivalent units of direct materials are in ending work inprocess? |
b. | How many equivalent units of conversion costs are in ending work inprocess? |

Part 1
a. How much did each case of yogurt cost tomake, from start tofinish?(Enter your answer to the nearestcent, $X.XX.)
Dairyfresh's cost of making each case of yogurt from start to finish is | per case. |
Part 2
b. If each case sells for
$23,
what is the gross profit percase?
Enter theformula, then compute the gross profit per case.(Enter your answer to the nearestcent, $X.XX.)

3.
Springs produces premium bottled water.
Canadian
Springs purchases artesianwater, stores the water in largetanks, and then runs the water through twoprocesses:
Filtration, where workers microfilter and ozonate the water
Bottling, where workers bottle and package the filtered water
During
February,
the filtration process incurs the following costs in processing
200,000
litres:

Part 1
Requirements
1. | Compute the February conversion costs in the Filtration Department. |
2. | If the Filtration Department completely processed 200,000 litres, what would be the averagefiltration cost perlitre? |
3. | Now, assume that the total costs of the filtration process listed in the information provided yield 160,000 litres that are completely filtered andozonated, while the remaining 40,000 litres are only partway through the process at the end of February. Is the cost per completely filtered and ozonated litrehigher, lower, or the same as in Requirement2? Why? |

Part 1
Requirement 1. Compute the
February
conversion costs in the Filtration Department.
Determine theformula, then compute the
February
conversion costs in the Filtration Department.

+ | = |
Part 2
Requirement 2. If the Filtration Department completely processed
200,000
litres, what would be the averagefiltration cost perlitre?
Determine theformula, then compute the averagefiltration cost per litre if the Filtration Department completely processed
200,000
litres.(Round your final answer to the nearestcent.)

Part 3
Requirement 3.Now, assume that the total costs of the filtration process listed in the information provided yield
160,000
litres that are completely filtered andozonated, while the remaining
40,000
litres are only partway through the process at the end of
February.
Is the cost per completely filtered and ozonated litrehigher, lower, or the same as in Requirement2? Why?
If only
160,000
litres were completely filtered andozonated, the remaining
40,000
wereincomplete, the cost of a completely filtered and ozonated litre would be
higher than
lower than
the same as
the average filtration cost per litre calculated in Requirement 2. This is because
a decrease in the denominator of the formula will result in a greater cost per litre
a decrease in the numerator of the formula will result in a greater cost per litre
an increase in the denominator of the formula will result in a greater cost per litre
an increase in the numerator of the formula will result in a lower cost per litre
the average filtration cost per litre is fixed

Journalize the transfer of costs to the Finishing Department.
(Hint:
Complete thefive-step process costing procedure to determine how much cost totransfer.)
Question content area bottom
Part 1
We need to begin thefive-step process costing procedure by first summarizing the units to account for and computing the equivalent units.
Forming Department | |||
Equivalent Unit Computation | |||
Month Ended October 31 | |||
Flow of | Equivalent Units | ||
Physical | Direct | Conversion | |
Flow of Production | Units | Materials | Costs |
Units to account for: | |||
Units accounted for: | |||
Total equivalent units |
Part 2
The next step is calculating the cost per equivalent unit.(Enter the cost per equivalent unit to two decimalplaces.)
Forming Department | |||
Cost per Equivalent Unit | |||
Month Ended October 31 | |||
Direct | Conversion | ||
Materials | Costs | Total | |
Cost per equivalent unit |
Part 3
Now we can calculate the total cost of the units completed and transferred out and the ending work in process.(Enter quantitiesfirst, then the cost per equivalent unit amounts in the same order as calculated in the precedingstep.)
Assembly Department | ||||
Month Ended October 31 | ||||
Assigning Costs | ||||

Part 4
Finally, journalize the transfer of costs to the Finishing Department.(Record debitsfirst, then credits. Exclude explanations from any journal entries. Check your spelling carefully and do not abbreviate. When entering Inventoryaccounts, specify the correct department where applicable(i.e. Work in Process Inventory(Blending)). Do not use hyphens or dashes in any account
name.)
