Question

A process with completed and transferred out 28,000 units during a period and had 14,000 units in the ending work in process that were 50% complete. How much is equivalent units of production for the period for conversion costs

Answer 1

Answer:

35,000 equivalent units

Explanation:

Equivalent Units E.U) are notional whole units which represent incomplete work and are used to apportion costs between between work in progress and completed work.

To compute as

Equivalent Units = Degree of completion (%) × units

Items          Units            Workings                 E.U

Completed   28,000     28,000× 100%        28,000

Closing WIP     14,000     14,000 × 50%         7,000

Total equivalent units                                   35000

The total equivalents for conversion cost

= 28,000 + 7,000

= 35,000
