Burton Company uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system. The Packaging Department started the month with 200 units in process, started 1 comma 500 units, and had 150 units in process at the end of the period. All materials are added at the beginning of the process, and conversion costs are incurred uniformly. The units in process at the end of the month are 20% complete with respect to conversion costs. During the month 1 comma 550 units were completed and transferred out. The department incurred the following costs: LOADING...(Click on the icon to view the costs.) The cost per equivalent unit for direct materials is (Round your answer to two decimal places.) A. $ 2.00 B. $ 4.00 C. $ 8.00 D. $ 14.00

Question:

Burton Company uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system. The Packaging Department sorted the month with 200 units in process, stated 1500 units, and had 150 units in process at the end of the period. All materials are added at the beginning of the process, and conversion costs are incurred uniformly. The units in the process at the end of the month are 20% complete with respect to conversion costs. The department incurred the following costs:

(table included in the attached PDF file)

1. How many units were completed sod transferred out?

a. 150 unit b. 1,500 unit c. 1,150 unit d. 1,550 unit

2. For conversion cost, the equivalent units of production are.

a. 1,700 unit. b. 1,500 unit c. 1.500 unit d. 1,550 unit.  

3. The cost per equivalent unit for direct materials is

a. $2.00. b. $4.00. c. 58.00. d. $1000.

Step-by-step explanation:

In weighted average method, equivalent units are calculated for units completed and transferred out and units lying as end of work in process. Reason being that, it is assumed units entered into process are integral part of total units and no differentiation between units transferred and units introduced from beginning of work to current process respectively.

Note that

Conversion cost = Labor cost + Overheads

(1)

Units in the beginning inventory     200

Units Added                      1500

Total                       1700

Units in Ending Inventory              150

Unit transferred out             1550 (option d above)

Equivalent Unit of Production  1,700  1,580 (option b)

(2)

(table included in the attached PDF file)

The following columns were calculated as follows:

EUP Materials, (c) = (a) x (b)

EUP Conversion, (e) = (c) x (d)

(3)

(table included in the attached PDF file)

Cost of beginning work in process conversion ($500) is given in the question

Cost added in the course of the month for conversion ($5,820) is also given

EUP is given in the table of question 2

Cost per EUP for Direct Materials = $3,400/1,700 = $2.00 (option a) is the answer

Cost per EUP for Conversion = $6,320/1580 = $4.00

step-by-step explanation:

first you will have to convert 3/4 into a decimal

which is .75

then you will have to divide 1.5 by .75

which is 2

no you have to divide
