Kenney co. uses process costing to account for the production of canned energy drinks. direct materials are added at the beginning of the process and conversion costs are incurred uniformly throughout the process. equivalent units have been calculated to be 19,200 units for materials and 16,000 units for conversion costs. beginning inventory consisted of $11,200 in materials and $6,400 in conversion costs. april costs were $57,600 for materials and $64,000 for conversion costs. ending inventory still in process was 6,400 units (100% complete for materials, 50% for conversion). the total cost per unit using the weighted average method would be closest to:

In december of 2004, the company you own entered into a 20-year contract with a grain supplier for daily deliveries of grain to its hot dog bun manufacturing facility. the contract called for "10,000 pounds of grain" to be delivered to the facility at the price of $100,000 per day. until february 2017, the supplier provided processed grain which could easily be used in your manufacturing process. however, no longer wanting to absorb the cost of having the grain processed, the supplier began delivering whole grain. the supplier is arguing that the contract does not specify the type of grain that would be supplied and that it has not breached the contract. your company is arguing that the supplier has an onsite processing plant and processed grain was implicit to the terms of the contract. over the remaining term of the contract, reshipping and having the grain processed would cost your company approximately $10,000,000, opposed to a cost of around $1,000,000 to the supplier. after speaking with in-house counsel, it was estimated that litigation would cost the company several million dollars and last for years. weighing the costs of litigation, along with possible ambiguity in the contract, what are three options you could take to resolve the dispute? which would be the best option for your business and why?
