Answer:

The correct answer to the following question is option b) Separation of functions.

Pirate Seafood Company purchases lobsters and processes them into tails and flakes. It sells the lobster tails for $20.30 per po
bija089 [108]

Answer:

Pirate Seafood Company

1) Calculation of the Allocated Cost of Sold Items:

a) Production Units:

Lobster tails = 3,200/100 * 58 = 1,856 units

Lobster flakes = 3,200/100 * 26 = 832 units

Total units = 2,688 units, costing $12,800

b) Material costs:

Lobster tails = 1,856/2,688 * $12,800 = $8,838

Lobster flakes = 832/2,688 * $12,800 = $3,962

c) Labor costs:

Lobster tails = 1,856/2,688 * $7,400 = $5,110

Lobster flakes = 832/2,688 * $7,400 = $2,290

d) Total Production costs (Materials & Labor):

i) Lobster tails = $8,838 + $5,110 = $13,948

per unit cost = $13,948/1,856 = $7.52

ii) Lobster flakes = $3,962 + $2,290 = $$6,252

per unit cost = $6,252/832 = $7.51

e) Cost of Sales:

Lobster tails = $7.52 x 1,722 = $12,949.44

Lobster flakes = $7.51 x 752 = $5,647.52

2) Calculation of the Allocated Cost of Ending Inventory:

a) Ending Inventory units:

Lobster tails = Production unit Minus Sales unit = 1,856 - 1,722 = 134

Lobster flakes = Production unit Minus Sales unit = 832 - 752 = 80

b) Ending Inventory costs:

Lobster tails = 134 x $7.52 = $ 1,007.68

Lobster flakes = 80 x $7.51 = $600.80

Explanation:

To calculate the costs of sales and the costs of ending inventory, the first step is to calculate the units produced.  The material and labour costs are then apportioned based on the units produced since no costs are allocated to the waste.

Then, the unit costs of tails and flakes are calculated.  These form the bases for computing the cost of items sold and the ending inventory.
