Question: JBL Company uses the FIFO method in its process costing system. Production data for the Casting Department for the month of April appear below: Units
JBL Company uses the FIFO method in its process costing system. Production data for the Casting Department for the month of April appear below:
Units | Percentage Complete | |
Beginning work in process inventory | 19,000 | 71% |
Transferred in from the prior department during September | 74,000 | |
Ending work in process inventory | 17,000 | 90% |
The data of JBL Company has the following information:
- The conversion cost in beginning work in process inventory was P83,600 at the beginning of September.
- Additional conversion costs of P427,682 were incurred in the department during the month.
How many equivalent units for conversion costs?
66,030
76,212
77,810
69,260
What would be the cost per equivalent unit for conversion costs for September on the Department's production report? (Round off to three decimal places.)
P5.620
P5.779
P5.500
P5.496
Brilliant Chemical Company has three departments. In the second department, all direct materials are placed in mixing at the end of the process and conversion costs occur evenly during the process. Brilliant Chemical Company placed 300,000 liters of direct materials into the mixing process. At the end of the September, 10,000 liters were still in process, 30% converted as to labor and factory overhead. Brilliant Chemical Company uses weighted-average method.
Determine the equivalent units in process for direct materials and conversion costs (respectively), assuming there was no beginning inventory.
300,000; 293,000
290,000; 293,000
293,000; 290,000
300,000; 290,000
Determine the equivalent units in process for direct materials and conversion costs (respectively),, assuming that 12,000 liters of chemicals were 40% complete prior to the addition of the 300,000 liters.
