Total Costs   $963,000 *   $465,450 **   $1,428,450
Equivalent units   19,260     18,618      
Unit costs   $50     $25     $75

 

* $107,000 + $856,000 = $963,000
** $74,900 + $390,550 = $465,450


(DM: ($107,000 + $856,000) ÷ (18,190 + 1,070) = $50)

(DM: (DM costs in beg. WIP + DM costs added) ÷ (Units transferred out + (Units in end. WIP x % complete)) = DM cost/unit)

(CC: ($74,900 + $390,550) ÷ (18,190 + (1,070 x 40%)) = $25)]

(CC: CC in beg. WIP + CC costs added) ÷ (Units transferred out + (Units in end. WIP x % complete)) = CC cost/unit)

 

Transferred out (18,190 × $75)
     
$1,364,250
