Question

During April, the first production department of a process manufacturing system completed its work on 400,000 units of a product and transferred them to the next department. Of these transferred units, 80,000 were in process in the production department at the beginning of April and 320,000 were started and completed in April. April's beginning inventory units were 60% complete with respect to materials and 40% complete with respect to conversion. At the end of April, 102,000 additional units were in process in the production department and were 90% complete with respect to materials and 40% complete with respect to conversion.

Prepare the number of equivalent units with respect to both materials and conversion costs in the production department for April using the FIFO method.

Equivalent Units of Production - FIFO
	Units	% Materials	EUP- Materials	% Conversion	EUP- Conversion
Equivalent units of production

Answer 1

• Requirement asked

EUP - FIFO Method	Units	% Material	EUP Materials	% Conversion	EUP - Conversion
Units of ENDING WIP	102,000	90.0%	91,800	40.0%	40,800
Units STARTED & COMPLETED	320,000	100%	320,000	100%	320,000
Units of beginning WIP	80,000	40.00%	32,000	60%	48,000
Equivalent Units of Production			443,800		408,800
