Bims Corporation uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system. The Assembly Department started the month with 2,000 units in its beginning work in process inventory that were 70% complete with respect to conversion costs. An additional 61,000 units were transferred in from the prior department during the month to begin processing in the Assembly Department. There were 18,000 units in the ending work in process inventory of the Assembly Department that were 60% complete with respect to conversion costs.
What were the equivalent units for conversion costs in the Assembly Department for the month?
45,000
77,000
54,400
55,800
Solution:
Calculation of equivalant units for conversion costs in the assembly department for the month:
Weighted Average method:
Units transfered to the next department =Units in biginning work in process + Units started into production - Units in ending work in process
Units transfered to the next department =
2000 + 61000 - 18000.
= 41000units.
Conversion | |
Units transfered to the next department | 45000 units |
Ending Work in process: Conversion = 18000 units 60% |
10800 units |
Equivalent Units of Production | 55800 units |
Answer:
The correct Option is "55800units".
