Question

Costs from Beginning Inventory Costs from Current Period

Answer 1

Answer:

$30.59

Explanation:

Note that the FIFO method is used for this question

Equivalent Units

Materials =  5,200 x 100 % + 300 x 100 % = 5,500

Conversion Costs = 400 x 55 % + 5,200 x 100 % + 300 x 35 % = 5,525

Total Costs

Materials =  $25,200

Conversion Costs = $143,700

Cost per Equivalent unit

Materials =  $25,200/5,500 =  $4.58

Conversion Costs = $143,700/5,525 = $26.01

Total Cost = $4.58 + $26.01 = $30.59

Conclusion

The cost of completing a unit during the current period was $30.59
