Question 1 - A department had 12,500 units which were 20% complete in beginning Goods in Process Inventory. During the current period 60,000 units were transferred in. Ending Goods in Process Inventory was 15,000 units which were 70% complete. Assume this company uses the FIFO method of process costing and direct material is added uniformly throughout the process. What are the equivalent units produced of direct material?
Question 2 - A company uses a process cost accounting system. Its Sewing Department's beginning inventory consisted of 50,000 units (1/4 complete with respect to direct labor and overhead). The Sewing Department started and finished 120,000 units this period. Its ending inventory consists of 40,000 units (1/4 complete with respect to direct labor and overhead). All direct materials are added at the beginning of the process. What are the equivalent units of production for the Sewing Department for direct materials and for direct labor and overhead, respectively?
Question 3 - A company uses a process cost accounting system. Its Assembly Department's beginning inventory consisted of 50,000 units, 3/4 complete with respect to direct labor and overhead. The department started and finished 127,500 units this period. The ending inventory consists of 40,000 units that are 1/4 complete with respect to direct labor and overhead. All direct materials are added at the beginning of the process. The department incurred direct labor costs of $24,000 and overhead costs of $32,000 for the period. Calculate the direct labor cost per equivalent unit.
