Madison Corporation's production cycle starts in the Processing Department. The following information is available for May:
Units |
|
Work-in-process, May 1 (30% complete) |
80,000 |
Total units in process during May |
340,000 |
Work-in-process, May 31 (80% complete) |
30,000 |
Materials are added at the beginning of the process in the
Processing Department. What are the equivalent units of production
for the month of April, assuming Madison uses the weighted-average
method?
Equivalent Units of Production:
a. Materials = 340000
b. Conversion Costs =334000
Explanation:
Step 1: Calculation of Units Completed and Transferred to Finished Goods
Units in Process |
340000 |
Less : Closing Work in Process |
30000 |
Units completed and transferred |
310000 |
Step 2: Determine Equivalent Units for each input component
Materials:
Completed and Transferred 100% = 310000×100%= 310000
Closing Work In process 100% = 30000×100%= 30000
Total = 340000
Conversion Costs:
Completed and Transferred 100% = 310000×100%=310000
Closing Work In process 80%=30000×80%=24000
Total =334000
