Question

Clopack Company manufactures one product that goes through one processing department called Mixing. All raw materials are introduced at the start of work in the Mixing Department. The company uses the weighted-average method to account for units and costs. Its Work in Process T-account for the Mixing Department for June follows (all forthcoming questions pertain to June):

The June 1 work in process inventory consisted of 5,000 pounds with $16,000 in materials cost and $12,000 in conversion cost. The June 1 work in process inventory was 100% complete with respect to materials and 50% complete with respect to conversion. During June 37,500 pounds were started into production. The June 30 work in process inventory consisted of 8,000 pounds that were 100% complete with respect to materials and 40% complete with respect to conversion.

Explanation / Answer

Answer:1 Prepare the journal entries to record the raw materials used in production and the direct labor cost incurred.

Work in Process-Mixing A/C Dr. $120000

    To Raw material inventory A/c                   $120000

Work in Process-Mixing A/C Dr. $79500

    To Wages Payable A/c                   $79500

Answer:2 Prepare the journal entry to record the overhead cost applied to production.

Work in Process-Mixing A/C Dr. $97000

    To Manufacturing overhead A/c                   $97000

Answer:3 How many units were completed and transferred to finished goods during the period?

Answer:4Compute the equivalent units of production for materials.

=34500+8000=42500

Answer:5 Compute the equivalent units of production for conversion.

=34500+8000*40%=37700

Answer:6 What is the amount of the cost of beginning work in process inventory plus the cost added during the period for materials?

=16000+120000=180000

Answer:7 What is the amount of the cost of beginning work in process inventory plus the cost added during the period for conversion?

=12000+176500=188500

Answer:8 What is the cost per equivalent unit for materials?

=180000/42500=$4.235

Answer:9 What is the cost per equivalent unit for conversion?

=188500/37700=$5

Answer:10 What is the cost of ending work in process for materials?

=8000*4.235=33882

Answer:11 What is the cost of ending work in process for conversion?

=3200*5=16000

Finished Goods Pounds Opening WIP 5000 Started into production 37500 Total pounds in process 42500 Less: Ending WIP 8000 Completed and transferred out 34500
