Determine the following:

A. The number of units in work in process inventory at the end of the period

B. Equivalent units of production for direct materials and conversion

C. Costs per equivalent unit for direct materials and conversion

D. Cost of the units started and completed during the period

Explanation / Answer

A. The number of units in work in process inventory at the end of the period. units

Opening balance in Work in Process + Direct Material units - Finished goods units = 1600 + 29000 - 29600 =1000 units

b. Equivalent units of production for direct materials and conversion.

Work in Process-Assembly Department

Equivalent Units of Production for Direct Materials and Conversion Costs

                                                          Whole Units      EquivalentDirect Materials Equivalent Units Conversion

Inventory in process, beginning      1,600                               0                                  1,040 (1,600x 0.35)

Started and completed                 28,000 (29,600 -1,600) 28,000                            28,000

Transferred to finished goods     29,600                             28,000                          29,040

Inventory in process, ending    1,000                                    1,000                          450

Total units                                 30,600                          29,000                            29,490

c. Costs per equivalent unit for direct materials and conversion.

                                 Costs Per Equivalent Unit

Direct Materials 275500/29000   $9.50

Conversion 84600+39258=123,858/29490    $4.20

D. Cost of the units started and completed during the period
