Question
During April, the production department of a process manufacturing system completed a number of units of a product and transferred them to finished goods. Of these transferred units, 82,000 were in process in the production department at the beginning of April and 328,000 were started and completed in April. April's beginning inventory units were 70% complete with respect to materials and 30% complete with respect to conversion. At the end of April, 104,000 additional units were in process in the production department and were 85% complete with respect to materials and 35% complete with respect to conversion.
The production department had $1,512,630 of direct materials and $991,230 of conversion costs charged to it during April. Also, its beginning inventory of $242,340 consists of $206,850 of direct materials cost and $35,490 of conversion costs.
1&2. Using the weighted-average method, compute the direct materials cost and the conversion cost per equivalent unit and assign April's costs to the department’s output. (Round "Cost per EUP" to 2 decimal places.)
