For this problem we have to put it in like the book shows examples, for instance how they have 3 colums one with physical units direct materials and conversion cost with the lables for things on the left saying where they go and what their for. I need help on this, its hard for me to understand and i would really appriciate it if the person who works on this problem could explain to me what and how you got the numbers and make the actual production cost report.
Amy Electronics makes game consoles in three processes: assembly, programming, and packing. Direct material are added a the beginning of the assembly process. Conversion cost are incurred evenly throughout the process. The assembly department had no work in process inventory on october 31. In mid- november, amy electronics started production on 101,000 game consoles. Of this number, 76,900 game consols were assembled during November and transfered out to the programming department.
