Answer:
A. $45,950
B. $0.84 per liter.
Explanation:
A. February conversion costs in the Filtration Department:
= Direct labor costs(Wages of workers operating filtration equipment) + Manufacturing overhead allocated to filtration
= $25,950 + $20,000
= $45,950
B. Filtration Department completely processed 150,000 liters in February.
Total cost incurred:
= Direct labor costs + Manufacturing overhead allocated to filtration + Water
= $25,950 + $20,000 + $80,000
= $125,950
Filtration cost per liter:
= Total cost incurred ÷ Total units processed
= $125,950 ÷ 150,000
= $0.84 per liter.
