Answer:
1) total equivalent units:
materials = 73,000
conversion = 81,500
2) costs assigned to ending WIP:
materials = $23,013.70
conversion = $27,288.32
Explanation:
beginning WIP 78,000 + 10,000 - 73,000 = 15,000
materials = 100% (0 added during the period)
conversion = 30% (70% added during the period, 10,500 EU)
units started 73,000
units finished 78,000
units started and finished = 63,000
ending WIP 10,000
materials = 100%
conversion = 80%, 8,000 EU
Beginning WIP
Materials $24,000
Conversion $35,000
Costs added during the period:
Materials $168,000
Conversion $278,000
total equivalent units:
materials = 73,000
conversion = 10,500 + 63,000 + 8,000 = 81,500
cost per EU:
Materials = $168,000 / 73,000 = $2.30137
Conversion = $278,000 / 81,500 = $3.41104
costs assigned to ending WIP:
materials = 10,000 x $2.30137 = $23,013.70
conversion = 8,000 x $3.41104 = $27,288.32
