FIFO Method, Valuation of Goods Transferred Out and Ending Work in Process
K-Briggs Company uses the FIFO method to account for the costs of production. For Crushing, the first processing department, the following equivalent units schedule has been prepared:
Direct Materials | Conversion Costs | |||||||
Units started and completed | 28,000 | 28,000 | ||||||
Units, beginning work in process: | ||||||||
10,000 × 0% | — | — | ||||||
10,000 × 40% | — | 4,000 | ||||||
Units, ending work in process: | ||||||||
6,000 × 100% | 6,000 | — | ||||||
6,000 × 75% | — | 4,500 | ||||||
Equivalent units of output | 34,000 | 36,500 |
The cost per equivalent unit for the period was as follows:
Direct materials | $2.00 | |
Conversion costs | 7.00 | |
Total | $9.00 |
The cost of beginning work in process was direct materials, $40,000; conversion costs, $30,000.

A physical flow schedule shows the units to account for and what happened to them.
Answer -
1. Determine the cost of ending work in process.
Cost of ending work in process = (6000*2+4500*7) = 43,500
Determine the cost of goods transferred out.
Cost of goods transferred out = (28000*9+4000*7+70000) = 350000
2. Prepare a physical flow schedule.
