a-1) Computation of the equivalent units for conversion costs:-

Ending work in process = ((111,000 + 551,000 - 411,000)*50%)

= 251,000 * 50%

= 125,500

Equivalent units = Beginning work in process + Work completed during the period + Ending work in process

= (111,000*25%) + (411,000 - 111,000) + 125,500

= 27,750 + 300,000 + 125,500

= 453,250

 

a-2) Computation of the cost per equivalent unit for conversion costs:-

Cost per equivalent unit = Conversion cost / Equivalent units

= $2,492,875 / 453,250

= $5.50 per unit

 

a-3) Computation of the cost of ending work in process inventory:-

Cost of ending work in process inventory = Equivalent units * Cost per equivalent units

= 125,500 * $5.50

= $690,250

 

a-4) Computation of the cost per equivalent unit for previous period:-

Cost per equivalent unit = Conversion cost / Equivalent units

= $389,610 / (111,000 * 75%)

= $389,610 / 83,250

= $4.68 per unit

 

Computation of the cost per equivalent unit for current period:-

Cost per equivalent unit = Conversion cost / Equivalent units

= $2,492,875 / 453,250

= $5.50 per unit
