Efficiency is about maximizing production while minimizing costs, ie producing as much as possible with available resources. Equality refers to the distribution of production, that is, the division into economically considered fair parts of what was produced among the agents of society.

Hache Corporation uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system. Data concerning the first processing departmen

Greeley [361]

Answer:

The cost of ending work in process inventory in the first processing department according to the company's cost system is closest to: d) $21,797

Explanation:

Calculation of Equivalent Units of Production

Materials

Units transferred to the next department (5,800 × 100%) = 5,800

Units in ending Work In process (1,850 × 50%) = 925

Total Equivalent Units of Production for Materials = 6,725

Conversion

Units transferred to the next department (5,800 × 100%) = 5,800

Units in ending Work In process (1,850 × 20%) = 370

Total Equivalent Units of Production for Conversion Costs = 6,170

Calculation of Cost per Equivalent units of Production

Materials

Cost per equivalent unit = Total Material Cost ÷ Total Equivalent Units of Production for Materials

= ($ 8,700 + $ 91,000) ÷ 6,725

= $14.825

Cost per equivalent unit = Total Material Cost ÷ Total Equivalent Units of Production for Materials

= ($ 8,500 + $ 126,300) ÷ 6,170

= $21.848

Calculation of cost of ending work in process inventory

Materials ( 925 × $14.825) = $13,713.12

Conversion Cost ( 370 × $21.848) = $8,083.76

Total = $21,796.88

Thus,

The cost of ending work in process inventory in the first processing department according to the company's cost system is closest to: d) $21,797.
