Cost information for the molding department for the month follows: Beginning work in process inventory (direct materials) $ 2,400 Direct materials added during the month 39,900 QS 20-18 Weighted average: Computing equivalent units and cost per EUP (direct materials) LO C2, C3 Using the weighted-average method, compute the molding departments (a) equivalent units of production for materials and (b) cost per equivalent unit of production for materials for the month. (Round "cost per equivalent unit of production" to 2 decimal places.)

Using the weighted-average method, assign direct materials costs to the molding departments outputspecifically, the units transferred out to the packaging department and the units that remain in process in the molding department at month-end. (Do not round intermediate calculations.)
