PROBLEM 4-16:
Interpreting a Report – Weight-average method
1. Equivalent units for the month
Quantities Physical units Equivalent units
Materials Conversion
Units to be account for
Work in process, beginning 30,000
Started into Production 200,000
Total units 230,000
Units accounted for
Transferred out 190,000 190,000 190,000
Work in process, ending 40,000 30,000 (75% complete) 24,000 (60% complete)
Total units 230,000 220,000 214,000
2. Cost per equivalent unit
Unit costs Material Conversion Total
Work in process $67,800 $30,200 $98,000
Costs in month $579,000 $248,000 $827,000
Total cost $646,800 $278,000 $925,000
Equivalent units $220,000 $214,000
Cost per unit $2.94 $1.3 $4.24
$2.94 = 646,800 / 220,000
$1.30 = 278,000 / 214,000
$4.24 = 2.94 + 1.30
3. Units started and completed during April
= 190,000 - 30,000 = 160,000 units
4. No. The manager should not be rewarded. In weighted-average method, the costs of prior period get mixed with the costs of current period. Thus if cost in March is $2.5 and in April is $3.0, the average cost would be less than $3.0 in the weighted-average method.
