During April, the first production department of a process manufacturing system completed its work on 305,000 units of a product and transferred them to the next department. Of these transferred units, 61,000 were in process in the production department at the beginning of April and 244,000 were started and completed in April. April's beginning inventory units were 65% complete with respect to materials and 35% complete with respect to conversion. At the end of April, 83,000 additional units were in process in the production department and were 85% complete with respect to materials and 35% complete with respect to conversion.
Question 1) Compute the number of equivalent units with respect to both materials used and conversion used in the first production department for April using the Weighted-average method.
The production department had $779,288 of direct materials and $659,797 of conversion costs charged to it during April. also, its April beginning inventory of $163,740 consists of $122,032 of direct materials cost and $41,708 of conversion costs.
Question 2) Compute the direct materials cost per equivalent unit for April. (Round "Cost per EUP" to 2 decimal places.)
Question 3) Compute the conversion cost per equivalent unit for April (Round "Cost per EUP" to 2 decimal places).
Question 4) Using the weighted-average method, assign April's costs to the department's output-specifically, its units transferred to the next department and its ending work in process inventory, (Round "Cost per EUP" to 2 decimal places.)
Question 5) Prepare the number of equivalent units with respect to both materials and conversion costs int he production department for April using the FIFO method.
