Victory Company uses weighted-average process costing to account
for its production costs. Conversion cost is added evenly
throughout the process. Direct materials are added at the beginning
of the first process. During November, the first process
transferred 775,000 units of product to the second process.
Additional information for the first process follows.
At the end of November, work in process inventory consists of
209,000 units that are 40% complete with respect to conversion.
Beginning work in process inventory had $447,720 of direct
materials and $128,790 of conversion cost. The direct material cost
added in November is $2,996,280, and the conversion cost added is
$2,447,010. Beginning work in process consisted of 70,000 units
that were 100% complete with respect to direct materials and 80%
complete with respect to conversion. Of the units completed, 70,000
were from beginning work in process and 705,000 units were started
and completed during the period.
Required:
For the first process:
1. Determine the equivalent units of production
with respect to direct materials and conversion.
2. Compute both the direct material cost and the conversion cost per equivalent unit.
3. Compute the direct material cost and the conversion cost assigned to units completed and transferred out and ending work in process inventory. (Round "Cost per EUP" to 2 decimal places.)
