Rodrick Corporation experienced the following during
April:
Beginning work-in-process inventory | 7,500 units, 40% of conversion added this period |
Units started this period | 64,000 units |
Ending work-in-process inventory | 5,000 units, 60% of conversion added this period |
Materials are added at the beginning of the process and conversion
occurs uniformly throughout the process. If the company uses FIFO
costing, what are the equivalent units for direct materials and
conversion?
66,500; 66,500
66,500; 72,000
71,500; 69,500
64,000; 65,000
None of these.
D. 64,000; 65,000
The equivalent units for materials and conversion costs would be calculated as follows:
Materials Costs | Conversion Costs | |
Completed and transferred out: | ||
From beginning work in process | 7,500 | 7,500 |
Started and completed | 59,000 | 59,000 |
Total completed and transferred-out | 66,500 | 66,500 |
In work in process ending inventory | 5,000 | 3,000 |
Total units accounted for | 71,500 | 69,500 |
Less work from beginning work in process | (7,500) | (4,500) |
New work done in April | 64,000 | 65,000 |
