A physical flow schedule shows the units to account for and what happened to them.

Calculate equivalent units of production for:

b$.$ The journal entry for transferring costs from Plate Cutting to Welding

Work in Process$-$Welding $*$

Work In Process$-$Plate Cutting $*,1,680,000$

c$.$ The cost assigned to units in ending Inventory.

Suppose the plant manager asked the following questions:

a$.$ What is the actual cycle time for the conversion cost output for the plate subassembly $($round to four decimal places$)?$

$

hours per unit

b$.$ What is the conversion cost rate for the first quarter, using total conversion costs and total time $($round to the nearest cent$)?$

$4$ per hour

c$.$ What is the conversion cost per unit, using duration$-$based costing $($round to the nearest cent$)?$

The first three calculations are descriptive $$ in nature. The last calculation has elements of predictive and prescriptive $*.$

McKay, Inc., produces a subassembly used in the production of hydraulic cylinders. The subassemblies are produced in three departments: Plate Cutting, Rod Cutting, and Welding. Materials are added at the beginning of the process. Overhead is applied using the following drivers and activity rates:

Driver Rate Actual Usage

$($by Plate Cutting$)$

Direct labor cost $120\%$ of direct labor $$330,000$

Inspection hours $$40$ per hour $4,002$ hours

Number of moves $$100$ per move $1,680$ moves

During the first quarter, the Plate Cutting Department used $20,000$ hours $($direct$,$ indirect, and machine hours$)$ to produce the quarter's output. Other quarterly data for the Plate Cutting Department are as follows:
