Question

Beginning inventory for the month contained 2,000 units that were 70 percent complete with respect to materials. During the month, 60,000 units were completed and transferred out. Ending inventory contained 3,000 units, 20 percent complete with respect to materials. The weighted average equivalent units of production for materials for the month would be
a. 60,600
b. 60,000
c. 63,000
d. 62,400

Answer 1

Answer:

a. 60,600

Explanation:

Given,

The number of units completed and transferred out = 6000,

Ending inventory = 3,000,

Percentage of completed units with respect to materials = 20%,

So, the additional completed units = 20% of 3000

$=\frac{20\times 3000}{100}$

$=\frac{60000}{100}$

= 600

Hence, the weighted average equivalent units of production for materials for the month = 60,000 + 600

= 60, 600

OPTION A would be correct.
