= 620 units
Calculation of equivalent units of production :
Material | conversion | |
Transferred out | 1780 | 1780 |
Ending work in process | 620 | 620*20%=124 |
Equivalent units of production | 2400 | 1904 |
Calculation of cost per equivalent unit
Material | conversion | |
Beginning work in process | 1450 | 2700 |
Current period cost | 7190 | 14500+7552=22052 |
Total cost to account for | 8640 | 24752 |
Equivalent unit of production | 2400 | 1904 |
Cost per equivalent Unit | 8640/2400=$3.6 | 24752/1904=$13 |
Material | conversion | Total | |
Cost of units completed transferred out | 1780*3.6=6408 | 1780*13=23140 | 29548 |
Cost of ending work in process | 620*3.6=2232 | 124*13=1612 | 3844 |
