Units started during November = 12,500
Assembly Department
Units Percent of Direct Percent of
Materials Added Conversion
Beginning work in process 3,000 70% 30%
Units started during Nov. 12,500
Units transferred out 10,000 100% 100%
Ending work in process 5,500 80% 30%
Cost of beginning work in process = $2,130 $940 $3,070
Costs added during the month: $ 20,910 $ 22,360 $43,270
Total costs of production $23,040 $23,300 $46,340
Equivalent units of production:
Units transferred out 10,000 10,000 10,000
Ending work in process 5,500 4,400 1,650
Total equivalent units 14,400 11,650
Cost per equivalent unit:
Total costs of production $23,040 $23,300
Total equivalent units 14,400 11,650
Cost per equivalent unit $1.60 $2.00
Cost assigned to: Materials Conversion Total
Units transferred out $16,000 $20,000 $36,000
($1.60*10,000) ($2*10,000)
Ending Work in process 7,040 3,300 10,340
($1.60*4,400) ($2*1,650)
Total costs allocated $23,040 $23,300 $46,340
