Explanation / Answer

1) Work in process, May 31 750 Units Working: Work in process, May 1                 460 Add:Units started during may              1,690 Total              2,150 Less:Units completed and transferred out              1,400 Work in process, May 31                 750 2) Unit Material cost for May $    4.433 Working: a. Equivalent unit for Materials = Units completed + Ending Units*Percentage of completion = 1400+(750*100%) = 2150 Materials are added at the beginning of period.So, it is 100% completed. b. Materials Begininig work in process $         2,940 Costs incurrred during may $         6,590 Total Costs $         9,530 Materials c. Total Costs $    9,530 / Equivalent units of production 2150 Unit Cost $    4.433 3) Unit conversion cost for May $    3.271 Working: a. Equivalent unit for Conversion = Units completed + Ending Units*Percentage of completion = 1400+(750*40%) = 1700 b. conversion Begininig work in process $             950 Costs incurrred during may $         4,610 Total Costs $         5,560 conversion c. Total Costs $    5,560 / Equivalent units of production 1700 Unit Cost $    3.271 4) Total cost of unit transferred out in May $ 10,784.40 Working: Equivalent units of production Cost per Equivalent unit of Production Total Costs Materials 1400 $    4.433 $   6,205.58 Conversion 1400 $    3.271 $   4,578.82 Total $ 10,784.40 5) Total cost of May 31 inventory $   4,305.60 Working: Equivalent units of production Cost per Equivalent unit of Production Total Costs Materials 750 $    4.433 $   3,324.42 Conversion 300 $    3.271 $       981.18 Total $   4,305.60
