Process Costing.

Our company manufactures Chemical X. Assume the company uses a weighted average. Separate direct materials and conversion costs.

Chemical X is comprised of two liquids, liquids A and liquid B. The formula of Chemical X is 60% liquid A, 40% liquid B. 40% of the mixed liquid is added at the beginning of the process; 60% is added at the very end.

This month, the liquid mix costs $43 per gallon.

At the beginning of the month, there was 1,400 gallon in process, 70% through the process. The total costs in beginning Work in process are $24,080 for materials and $96,760 for conversion costs.

During the month, 13,000 gallons were started. Conversion costs were $467,400 for the month. Compute direct materials costs (hint use DM EUP under FIFO).

At the end of the month, there were 1,600 gallons in process, 6% through the process.

a) How many units were started AND completed? Completed?

b)Using FIFO, calculate equivalent units produced.

c) Using your answer in b. What is the total material cost added this month?

d) Using FIFO, calculate the cost per equivalent unit produced.

e) Using FIFO, what is the journal entry for the transferred to finished goods?

f) Using FIFO, what are the unit costs? (hind: you should have 2 numbers)

g) Using WA, calculate equivalent units of production.

h) Using Wa, what is the cost per equivalent unit of production.

i) Using WA, what is the journal entry for transferred to finished goods?

j) Using WA, what is the cost per unit?
