Answer:

First we find the equivalent units. Then Cost Per Equivalent Units. We apply these costs to the units to find the total cost. Then we compare the given costs with the found costs to see the difference.

Explanation:

Equivalent Units

Particulars Units % of Completion Equivalent Units

Materials Conversion Materials Conversion

Units transfered 6050 100 1000 6050 6050

Ending WIP 450 40 30 180 135

Equivalent Units 6230 6185

Units Completed And Transferred

Particulars Units

Beginning WIP 300

Units started in production 6200

Total Units Available 6500

Less Ending WIP 450

Units Completed and Transferred 6050

Cost Per Equivalent Unit

Particulars Materials Conversion

Beginning WIP $10,500 $6,750

Costs added 332,150 407,645

Total Costs 342,650 414,395

Equivalent Units 6230 6185

Cost Per Equivalent Unit 342,650 / 6230 414,395/ 6185

=$ 55 =$ 67

Costs Assigned

Ending WIP $ 18945

Materials ( 180 * 55) = $ 9900

Conversion ( 135 * 67) = $ 9045

Units Completed And Transferred Out : $ 738100

Materials ( 6050 *55) = $ 332750

Conversion ( 6050 * 67) = $ 405350

Cost Reconciliation

Cost to be accounted for

Beginning WIP ( $10,500 + $6,750 )= $ 17250

Cost added ( 332,150+ 407,645)= $ 739795

Total Costs $ 757045

Ending WIP $ 18945

Units Completed And Transferred Out : $ 738100

Total Costs $ 757045

Which is the same.

A hospital reports the following cost and revenue data: Variable cost per inpatient day of $250 Revenue per inpatient day of $10

REY [17]

Answer:

Expected profit at a volume of 25,000 inpatient days = $3,750,000.00

Explanation:

The expected profit is calculated as follows:

Step 1

Total contribution per inpatient from 25,000 inpatients

contribution = (revenue - variable cost) per patient

= $(1000-250)

= $750 per inpatient day

Total contribution for 25,000 inpatient days

$750 × 25000 = $18,750,000.00

Step 2

Calculate Profit 

Profit = Total contribution - Fixed cost

=$18,750,000.00 -$15,000,000

= $3,750,000.00

Expected profit at a volume of 25,000 inpatient days = $3,750,000.00
