Answer:

The formula is not used if consumer demand and ordering and holding costs are not constant.

Explanation:

E.O.Q formula measures the ideal quantity of order a company should purchase in order to minimize its inventory costs, such as holding costs and shortage costs. The formula, however has its limitations, in a way that it assumes that the costumer demand is constant and ordering and holding costs remain constant. This makes formula hard to use in case of seasonal changes of demand, inventory costs or lost sales revenue due to inventory shortages.

Total Costs 199920 $28,080 106970  $334970

b. Conversion cost per equivalent unit during March

Total Conversion Costs/ Total Equivalent Units Conversion

= 106970/56,300 = $1.9 per Equivalent Unit

Materials cost per equivalent unit during March

Total Materials Costs/ Total Equivalent Units Materials

= 28080/52000 = $ 0.54 per Equivalent Unit

Transferred In cost per equivalent unit during March

Total Transferred In Costs / Total Transferred In Units

= 199920 / 73500 = 2.72

C. Cost Assigned To Transferred Out Goods $ 268,320

Materials = 52,000*0.54= $ 28080

Conversion = 52,000* 1.9= 98800

Transferred in Units = 2.72 * 52000= 141440

Cost Assigned To Ending Work In Process $66650

Conversion = 4300* 1.9= 8170

Transferred in Units = 2.72 * 21500= 58,480

C. Total Costs Assigned = Transferred Out + Ending = $334970

d. Conversion cost assigned to the ending work in process: $8170

Conversion = 4300* 1.9= 8170

We see the difference between the weighted average and FIFO method is that the FIFO method only accounts for the current period costs not the total the costs.Where as the weighted method includes all the costs from preceeding department and also current costs.
