Expert Solution

Answer:

Using FIFO equivalent units for direct material = 294,500

Using FIFO equivalent unit for conversion cost 306,000

Explanation:

Computation of equivalent units of production:

Particular

Materials

(Units)

Conversion cost

(Units)

Beginning work in process :40,000 units    
Direct material : 80%of 40,000 units* 32,000  
Conversion cost : 40% of 40,000 units*   16,000
Units started and completed during this period * 250,000 250,000
Ending inventory: 50,000 units    
Direct material : 25% of 50,000 12,500  
Conversion cost : 80% of 50,000   40,000
Equivalent unit of production 294,500 306,000


Note:

(1)

Beginning work in process 20% completed for Materials and 60% completed for conversion cost i.e. remaining (100 - 20) 80% is to be completed during this period in regards with Materials and remaining (100 - 60) 40% is to be completed during this period in regards with conversion cost.

(2)

Units started during this period = 300,000

Ending inventory = 50,000 units

Hence units started and completed during this period :

300,000 - 50,000 = 250,000

(3)

Ending work in process 25% complete for Materials and 80% complete for conversion cost.

Thank you

I hope this'll be helpful to you

Please don't downvote, in this question only ask for to calculate equivalent unit of direct materials and conversion cost not ask for calculating equivalent cost per unit of direct materials and conversion cost.
