Using the first-in, first-out method, which of the following is the cost per equivalent unit with respect to materials? (Note: Round your answer to two decimal places.)

Answer 1

Answer:

0.78

Explanation:

beginning 22,000 with a cost of 15,675

started and completed: completed - beginning

                                         99,000 - 22,000  =    77,000

equivalent units ending WIP 16,500 x100% =    16,500

equivalent units for materials 93,500

equivalent cost of materials: 73,260 / 93,500 = 0,78

for the equivalent cost we will calcualte only using the cost added during the period.
