Question

Assume that Delaware Ice Cream Company uses the FIFO method to calculate equivalent units. It has unit costs of $10 for materials and a conversion cost of $30. There are 2,500 units in ending goods in process, 100 percent complete with respect to materials and 40 percent complete with respect to conversion. What is the total cost assignable to its ending work in process inventory

Answer 1

Answer: $55,000

Explanation:

Material costs are $10 per unit and have been completed in regards to the 2,500 units.

Material cost = 10 * 2,500

= $25,000

Conversion costs are $30 per unit and have only been 40% completed.

= (40% * 2,500) * 30

= 1,000 * 30

= $30,000

Ending Work in Progress Inventory Cost =  Material Cost + Conversion Cost

= 25,000 + 30,000

= $55,000
