Prodiem 4-38 Uperation Costing; Unit Cost; Cost How; Journal Entries (LU 4-7) [The following information applies to the questions displayed below.] Orbital Industries of Canada, Inc., manufactures a variety of materials and equipment for the aerospace industry. A team of R&D engineers in the firm's Winnipeg plant has developed a new material that will be useful for a variety of purposes in orbiting satellites and spacecraft. Tradenamed Ceralam, the material combines some of the best properties of both ceramics and laminated plastics, Ceralam is already being used for a variety of housings in satellites produced in three different countries. Ceralam sheets are produced in an operation called rolling, in which the various materials are rolled together to form a multilayer laminate. Orbital Industries sells many of these Ceralam sheets just after the rolling operation to aerospace firms worldwide. However, Orbital also processes many of the Ceralam sheets further in the Winnipeg plant. After rolling, the sheets are sent to the molding operation, where they are formed into various shapes used to house a variety of instruments. After molding, the sheets are sent to the punching operation, where holes are punched in the molded sheets to accommodate protruding instruments, electrical conduits, and so forth. Some of the molded and punched sheets are then sold. The remaining units are sent to the dipping operation, in which the molded sheets are dipped in a special chemical mixture to give them a reflective surface. During the month of March, the following products were manufactured at the Winnipeg plant. The direct-material costs are also shown. Direct Materials Used in Ceralam Direct Materials Used in Dipping Units 6,400 Ceralam sheets (sold after the rolling operation) Nonreflective housings (sold after the punching operation) Reflective housings (sold after the dipping operation) Sheets $1,152,000 450,000 2,500 1,700 306,000 42,500 Total 10,600 $1,908,000 $42,500 The costs incurred in producing the various Ceralam products in the Winnipeg plant during March are shown in the following table.
