uire a down payment; the other has a 15% interest rate and requires a $5,000 down payment. Mike chooses the first loan and does not make a down payment because he would like to reduce the total cost of the loan as much as possible. Evaluate Mike's decision.
Select the best answer from the choices provided.
A. Mike's decision reduced the total cost of his loan as much as possible because the first loan has a lower interest rate.

During March, Hanks Manufacturing started and completed 30,000 units. In beginning work in process, there were 5,000 units 60 pe
Delvig [45]

Answer:

Equivalent units

Materials= 40,000 units

Conversion= 36,000 units

Explanation:

Equivalent units are notional whole units which represent incomplete work and are used to apportion cost between work progress and completed work

Equivalent units = Degree of work done(%) × units of inventory

Conversion cost

<em>Item</em>                                            <em>     equivalent units</em>

Opening inventory 40% × 5,000 =     2,000

Fully worked units 100% × 30,000= 30,000  

Closing inventory 40%× 10,000=      <u> 4,000 </u>

Total equivalent unit                       <u>    36,000</u>

Notes

The following notes explains the computation of the items of equivalent unit for conversion cost:

1. DOC for opening inventory is 40% i.e 100%-60%. Remember that 60% work has been done in the previous period, so the balance is to be done in this current period  

2. Fully work represent the units of inventory introduced in the current period and completed in the same period. Meaning 100% work was achieved in the period.  

3. Closing work is only 40% completed. This represent work started this period but not yet completed.

Material  cost

<em>Item   </em>                                               <em> equivalent units</em>

Opening inventory 0% × 5,000 =         0

Fully worked units 100% × 30,000= 30,000  

Closing inventory 100%× 10,000=   <u> 10,000 </u>

Total equivalent unit                         <u> 40,000</u>

Notes

The following notes explains the computation of the items of equivalent unit for Material cost:

1. DOC for opening inventory is 0% i.e 100%-1000%. Remember that materials are added at the beginning. Hence all the materials required for the opening inventory had been added in the previous period

2. Fully work represent the units of inventory introduced in the current period and completed in the same period. Meaning 100% materials  was added in the period.  

3. All the materials required for the closing inventory were added in this period, hence, 100% degree of completion was used

Equivalent units

Materials= 40,000 units

Conversion= 36,000 units
