Helix Corporation uses the weighted-average method of process costing. It produces prefabricated flooring in a series of steps carried out in production departments. All of the material used in the first production department is added at the beginning of processing in that department. Data for May for the first production department follow: Work in process inventory, May Work in process inventory, May 31 Materials cost in work in process inventory, May 1 Conversion cost in work in process inventory, May 1 Units started into production Units transferred to the next production department Materials cost added during May Conversion cost added during May Required: For May: Units 81,000 61,000 Percent Complete Materials 100% 100% $ 63,000 $ 18,800 254,400 274,400 $ 155,010 $ 270,973 Conversion 50% 30% 1. Calculate the first production department's equivalent units of production for materials and conversion. 2.
