The Polishing Department of Harbin Company has the following production and manufacturing cost data for September. Materials are entered at the beginning of the process.

Production: Beginning inventory 1,500 units that are 100% complete as to materials and 30% complete as to conversion costs; units started during the period are 36,700; ending inventory of 7,500 units 10% complete as to conversion costs.


Manufacturing costs: Beginning inventory costs, comprised of $20,110 of materials and $-1,760 of conversion costs; materials costs added in Polishing during the month, $174,710; labor and overhead applied in Polishing during the month, $127,420 and $258,030, respectively.

Answer:

a. Materials  = 38,200 units and Conversion Costs = 31,200

b. Materials  = $5.10  and Conversion Costs =  $13.00

c. Transferred out = $55,670 and Ending work in process = $48,000

Explanation:

First calculate the number of physical units completed and transferred to finished goods.

units completed and transferred to finished goods = beginning inventory units + units started during the period - ending inventory units

Therefore,

units completed and transferred to finished goods = 1,500 + 36,700 - 7,500

                                                                                     = 30,700

Calculation of Equivalents Units of Production for Materials and Conversion Costs.

1. Materials

Ending Work In Process Inventory (7,500 × 100%) =   7,500

Completed and Transferred  (30,700 × 100%)        = 30,700

Equivalents Units of Production for Materials         = 38,200

2. Conversion Costs

Ending Work In Process Inventory (7,500 × 10%)   =       750

Completed and Transferred  (30,700 × 100%)        = 30,700

Equivalents Units of Production for Conversion     =  31,200

Calculation of Unit costs for materials and conversion costs for the month.

Unit Cost = Total Costs ÷ Total Equivalent Units

1. Materials

Unit Cost = ($20,110 +  $174,710) ÷ 38,200

                = $5.10

2. Conversion Costs

Unit Cost = ($20,110 + $127,420 + $258,030) ÷ 31,200

                = $13.00 (2 decimal places)

Calculation of the  costs to be assigned to the units transferred out and in process.

1. Transferred out

Cost = Number of units completed and transferred × total unit cost

        = 30,700 × ($5.10 + $13.00)

        = $55,670

2. Ending work in process

Cost = Material Cost + Conversion Cost

        = (7,500 × $5.10) + (750 × $13.00)

        = $48,000
