Equivalent Units and Product cost Report-Weighted Average Method

The following data (and annotations) are for Joyner Company's processing department work-in-process account for the month of June 2019:

Beginning inventory (700 units, 40% complete)

Direct materials
$5,810
Conversion costs
15,884
Current period

Direct materials (5,000 units)
70,000
Direct labor
119,200
Manufacturing overhead applied
75,600


Joyner uses the weighted average method. Materials are added at the beginning of the process and conversion costs are incurred evenly throughout. Ending work-in-process is composed of 900 units, 70% complete. Compute the following:

a. Equivalent units for materials and conversion.

b. Cost per equivalent unit for materials and conversion.

c. Total cost assigned to the units transferred out.
