The partially complete units were 100 percent complete with regard to direct materials but 75 percent complete with regard to conversion costs. The equivalent units for materials for the month for the Assembly Department

Answer 1

Answer:

80,000 units

Explanation:

The Concept of Equivalent units measures the physical units completed in terms of completion percentage of input components.

Note that The partially complete units were 100 percent complete with regard to direct materials, thus both the units in hand and units completed and transferred are 100% complete in terms of raw materials.

Materials :

Units in hand (Closing Work - In Process) - 100%     67,200

Units completed and transferred - 100%                   12,800

Total                                                                             80,000

Therefore the equivalent units for materials for the month for the Assembly Department is 80,000 units
