Sandia Corporation manufactures metal toolboxes. It adds all materials at the beginning of the manufacturing process. The company has provided the following information:

Explanation / Answer

Solution :

a.. Reconcilation of the number of physical units worked on during the period.

As at Begining

36,000

Units started in current period

74,000

Units to be accounted for

110,000

Transferred out (110000 - 89000)

21,000

Balancing figure

As at end

89,000

Units accounted for

110,000

b.. calculation of equivalent units.
