Answer:

Explanation:

Fixed costs - will remain similar no matter of output amount

Variable costs - vary with the change in output

Average cost=(Fixed cost(FC) + Variable cost(VC))/number of units produced

VC = VC per cup of coffee served *cup of coffee served in a week

Total Cost(TC)= FC+VC

Average cost=TC/Cup of coffee served in a week

1. Let's calculate for 2000 cups of coffee:

FC remain the same! = $1200

VC=0.22*2000= $440

TC=FC+VC= 1200+440= $1640

Average cost of 1 cup of coffee= TC/#of cups=1640/2000=$0.82

2. Calculation for 2100 cups:

FC=1200

VC=0.22*2100=462

TC=1200+462=1662

Av cost=1662/2100=0.79

3. Calculation for 2200 cups:

FC=1200

VC=0.22*2200=484

TC=1200+484=1684

Av cost=1684/2200=0.77

As the number of cups increased from 2000 to 2100, the average cost per cup devreased 0.82 to 0.79. Then when number of cups increased to 2200, average cost decreased to 0.77. The reduction is due to the variable cost

Direct Materials Costs  $ 11.5 per EUP   Conversion  Costs$6.2 per  EUP

Explanation:

Ashad Company

Weighted Average Method

Cost Of Production Report

Equivalent Units of Production

                                                      Direct Materials           Conversion

Units transferred out                       37,500 EUP                 37,500 EUP

<u>Units of ending work in process      2,000 EUP                    1,200 EUP</u>

<u>Equivalent units of production          39,500 EUP                38,700 EUP</u>

Costs Added

                                                    Direct Materials           Conversion

Costs of beginning work in

process                                               $13,450                    $1,860

<u>Costs incurred this period               440,800                      238,080</u>

<u>Total costs                                       $454,250                   $239,940 </u>

<u />

Costs per EUP

                                                Direct Materials           Conversion

                                $454,250/ 39,500 EUP         $239,940/38,700 EUP

                                     =  $ 11.5 per EUP                        = $6.2 per  EUP

Dividing the costs with EUP gives cost per EUP.

Costs Accounted For

Units Transferred Out $ 663750

Materials = $ 11.5 * 37500=$  431250

Conversion= $ 6.2 * 37500=$ 232500

Total = $ 663750

Work In Process Ending $ 30440

Materials = $ 11.5 * 2000=$  23000

Conversion= $ 6.2 * 1200=$ 7440

Total = $ 30440

Now adding the costs of Transferred out units and the ending work in process inventory equals the total of the costs added.

$ 663750+$ 30440 = $454,250 + $239,940

$ 694190 = $ 694190
