Unit Information with BWIP, FIFO Method

Jackson Products produces a barbeque sauce using three departments: Cooking, Mixing, and Bottling. In the Cooking Department, all materials are added at the beginning of the process. Output is measured in ounces. The production data for July are as follows:

Production:
Units in process, July 1, 60% complete* 11,000
Units completed and transferred out 81,000
Units in process, July 31, 90% complete* 15,700
* With respect to conversion costs.

Required:

1. Prepare a physical flow schedule for July.

Jackson Products
Physical Flow Schedule
For the Month of July
Units to account for:
Units, beginning work is process (60% complete)
Units started during July
Total units to account for
Units accounted for:
Units completed and transferred out:
Started and completed
From beginning work in process
Units in ending work in process (90% complete)
Total units accounted for

Feedback

The physical flow schedule traces the units in process regardless of their stage of completion and provides the information needed for preparing the equivalent units schedule. FIFO uses only current output to calculate the current-period unit cost.

2. Prepare an equivalent units schedule for July using the FIFO method. Enter percentages as whole numbers. If an amount box does not require an entry, enter "0".

Equivalent units of output

Feedback

FIFO treats the work (equivalent output) in BWIP as belonging to the prior period and only counts the work (equivalent output for each input) done this period as part of this period’s output.

3. What if 70 percent of the materials were added at the beginning of the process and 30 percent were added at the end of the process (all ingredients used are treated as the same type or category of materials)? How many equivalent units of materials would there be?
_____equivalent units

Solutions

Expert Solution

a) Input/Output reconciliation
Units be accounted for Physical units
Units in beginning WIP Inventory                  11,000
Units started/transferred in during the period                  85,700
Total units be accounted for                  96,700
Transferred out from Beginning Inventory                  11,000
Units started and completed during the period                  70,000
Units in ending WIP Inventory                  15,700
Total units accounted for                  96,700
c) Equivalent units of Production- FIFO
Material Conversion cost
Units in beginning WIP (A) 11000 11000
% of completion of beginning WIP in previous period (B) 100% 100%
% of beginning WIP completed this period [C=100%-B] 0% 40%
Equivalent units in beginning WIP [D=A×C]                           -                                 4,400
Units both started and completed in current period (E)                  70,000                             70,000
Units of ending WIP (F)                  15,700                             15,700
Percentage of completion of ending WIP (G) 100% 90%
Equivalent units in ending WIP (H=F×G)                  15,700                             14,130
Total equivalent units (D+E+H)                  85,700                             88,530
