Equivalent Units and Cost per Equivalent Unit—Weighted-Average Method

Solex Company produces a high-quality insulation material that passes through two production processes. Data for June for the first process follow:

 

Units

Completion with Respect to Materials

Completion with Respect to Conversion

Work in process inventory, June 1

60,000

75%

40%

Work in process inventory, June 30

40,000

50%

25%

 

Materials cost in work in process

 

inventory, June 1

$56,600

Conversion cost in work in process

 

inventory, June 1

$14,900

Units started into production

280,000

Units transferred to the next process

300,000

Materials cost added during June

$385,000

Conversion cost added during June

$214,500

Required:

1. Assume that the company uses the weighted-average method of accounting for units and costs. Determine the equivalent units for June for the first process.

2. Compute the costs per equivalent unit for June for the first process.

3. Determine the total cost of ending work in process inventory and the total cost of units transferred to the next process in June.
