Kramer Corp began the current period with 4,000 units in process that were 100% complete as to materials and 60% complete as to conversion. Costs of $7,500 in direct materials and $4,700 in conversion costs were incurred in manufacturing those units in the previous period. Kramer ended the current period with 20,000 units completed and 5,000 units still in process. Work in process was 100% complete as to materials and 70% complete as to conversion costs. Kramer incurred $67,500 in direct materials costs, $7,000 in direct labor costs, and $40,000 in manufacturing overhead costs during the period.
Using the weighted average method, compute the Equivalent units of production for conversion
25,000
20,000
40,000
23,500
Answer:
Computation of the Equivalent units of production for conversion Using the weighted-average method:
Particulars | Conversion |
In respect of units completed & transferred out: | |
: Conversion (20,000 x 100%) | 20,000 |
In respect of units in ending work in progress: | |
: Conversion (5,000 x 70%) | 3,500 |
Equivalent units of production for conversion | 23,500 |
Therefore, Option (d) i.e. 23,500 is the correct answer as equivalent units of production for the conversion are 23,500 units.
