Preparing a Process Costing Production Report (Weighted-Average Method) [LO 3-2, 3-3, 3-4]
Sandia Corporation manufactures metal toolboxes. It adds all materials at the beginning of the manufacturing process. The company has provided the following information:
Units Costs
Beginning work in process (27% complete) 36,000
Direct materials $ 48,000
Conversion cost 105,000
Total cost of beginning work in process $ 153,000
Number of units started 74,000
Number of units completed and transferred to finished goods ?
Ending work in process (52% complete) 89,000
Current period costs
Direct materials $ 91,000
Conversion cost 161,000
Total current period costs $ 252,000
Required:
1 & 2. Using the weighted-average method of process costing, complete each of the following steps:
a. Reconcile the number of physical units worked on during the period.
b. Calculate the number of equivalent units.
c. Calculate the cost per equivalent unit. (Round your answers to 5 decimal places.)
d. Reconcile the total cost of work in process. (Use Cost per Equivalent Unit rounded to 5 decimal places and round your final answers to the nearest whole dollar amount.)

Answer:

a. Reconciliation of the number of physical units worked on during the period.

As at Beginning                                36,000

Units started in current period       74,000

Units to be accounted for                110,000

Transferred out                                21,000   Balancing figure

(110,000 - 89,000)

As at end                                            89,000

Units accounted for                          110,000

b. Calculation of equivalent units.

                                            Direct Materials   Conversion Costs

Transferred out (A)                     21,000                   21,000

Units as at end (B)                      89,000                   89,000

Percentage of completion (C)   100%                          52%

Equivalent units as at 31 Dec    89,000                    46,280

(D = B * C)

Total equivalent units (A+D)     110,000                   67,280

c. Calculation the cost per equivalent unit.

                                                 Direct Materials   Conversion      Total

As at beginning                               48000              105000       153000

Added during the period                91000               161000      252000

Costs to be accounted for             139000             266000    405000

Total equivalent units                     110,000             67,280

Cost per equivalent unit               1.26364           3.95363   5.21726

Note: Cost per equivalent unit = Costs to be accounted for / Total equivalent units

d. Reconciliation the total cost of work in process.

                                                 Direct Materials   Conversion    Total

Units as at end (A)                          89,000              89,000     89,000

Cost per equivalent unit (B)           1.26364              3.95363     5.21726

Percentage of completion (C)           100%                 52%

Total cost (A*B*C)                            112,464             182,974    295,437

Cost of closing WIP = Costs to be Accounted for - Costs Transferred Out

= 405000 - (21000 units * 5.21726)

= 405,000 - 109,562.46

= 295437.54

= $295,4378
