Jones Company manufactures a single product and uses process costing (FIFO method). The company's product goes through two processing departments, Etching and Wiring. The following activity was recorded in the Etching Department during July:

Production data:

Units in process, July 1 (materials 60% complete; conversion 30% complete) . . . . . . . 50,000

Units started into production . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 500,000

Materials are added at several stages during the etching process. The company uses the FIFO method.

Required:

1. Compute the equivalent units of production.

2. Compute the costs per equivalent unit for July.

3. Determine the cost of ending work in process inventory and of the units transferred to the Wiring Department.

4. Prepare a cost reconciliation between the costs determined in (3) above and the cost of beginning inventory and costs added during the period.
