Answer:

Cost per equivalent unit Materials =  $ 2.82

Cost per equivalent unit Conversion =  $2.65

Explanation:

Richards Corporation

1) We first calculate the fifo equivalent units .

FIFO Equivalent units can be calculated by the following.

Particulars          Units        % of Completion             Equivalent Units

                                              Mat. Con. Costs       Materials C. Costs

Transferred out, 366,000        100       100             366,000   366,000

Ending inventory, 39,000         30         15              11700         5850

Total Weighted Equivalent Units                           377,700     371,850

Less

<u> Beginning Inventory: 98,000, 80%  20%             78,400        18000</u>

<u>FIFO Equivalent Units                                          299,300       353,850 </u>  

2) We calculate the total costs

                                                   Direct Materials  Conversion

Costs in beginning Work in Process -$55,200       $97,700

<u>Costs incurred in October -                 $844,050      $937,300. </u>

Total Cost                                           $ 899250         1035,000  

<u />

<u>3) In FIFO The cost per unit is  based only on the current costs and current period unit productions.</u>

Materials = $844050/299300= $2.82

Conversion = 937,300  / 353,850   = 2.6488= $2.65

Therefore, the quick ratio is 1.30
