Answer:

$21.44

Explanation:

Calculation for the cost per equivalent unit for materials for the month in the first processing department

First step

Units completed and transferred out $7,500

Ending inventory($800+$8,400-$7,500)*70% Ending inventory =1,700*70%

Ending inventory =$1,190

Equivalent units for Materials $8,690

($7,500+$1,190)

Total materials costs $186,300

Second step

Cost per equivalent unit for materials=Total materials costs÷ Equivalent units for Materials

Cost per Equivalent unit for Materials $186,300÷$8,690

Cost per Equivalent unit for Materials=$21.44

Therefore the cost per equivalent unit for materials for the month in the first processing department is closest to $21.44

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

b. Products were overcosted in 2013

Explanation:

When determining the cost of a product, we consider only the Overheads Applied.

<u>Applied Overheads are calculated as :</u>

Pre-determined Overhead Rate <em>multiplied by </em>Actual Activity

<u>Predetermined Overhead Rate is calculated as follows :</u>

Budgeted Overheads <em>divided by</em> Budgeted Activity

Predetermined Overhead Rate = $25,000/2,000 units

                                                     = $ 12.50 per unit

Applied Overheads = $ 12.50 per unit × 2,200 units

                                 =  $ 27,500

The Overheads Applied are then <em>Compared to</em> Actual Overhead Cost to determine is the Overheads where Over or Under Applied

<u>Therefore our case presents the following:</u>

Applied Overheads ($ 27,500) >Actual Overheads ($25,000)

Therefore, we have an Over-Application situation.

Over-Applied Overheads are $2,500

Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

It increases by 50 units.

Explanation:

Current break even point = \frac{Fixed\:Cost}{Contribution\:per\:unit}

Here, fixed cost = $4,500

Contribution per unit = Selling price - Variable Cost = $20 - $10 = $10

Current break even point = \frac{4,500}{10} = 450 units

If variable cost increase by 10% then revised variable cost = $10 + 10% = $11

Contribution per unit = $20 - $11 = $9 per unit

Break even sales in units = \frac{4,500}{9} = 500 units

Difference in original and revised break even = Revised - Original = 500 - 450 units = 50 units,

Thus original break even increases by 50 units, = 50/450 = 11.11% increase.

Final Answer

It increases by 50 units.
