Hanes has a product that passes through two processes: knitting and finishing. direct materials are added uniformly in the second process. units are measured the same way in both departments. the second department (finishing) had the following physical flow schedule for the month:
unit to account for:
units, beginning work in process : 50% complete 50,000
units started: 260,000
total units to account for: 310,000
units accounted for:
units, ending work in process: 40% complete 65,000
units complete: 245,000
units accounted for: 310,000
cost in beginning work in process for the finishing department were:
Direct materials: 5,000
conversion costs: 7,500
transferred in: 10,000
costs added during this month
Direct materials: 32,500
conversion costs: 48,750
transferred in: 65,000
USING THE FIRST-IN FIRSTOUT process costing method, answer the following questions for the month:
a. how many equivalent units housed Hanes use to calculate direct materials cost?
b. how many equivalent units housed Hanes use to calculate conversion cost?
c. how many equivalent units housed Hanes use to calculate transferred-in cost?
d. what is the direct material cost per unit?
e. what is the conversion cost per unit?
f. d. what is the transferred-in cost per unit?
