Hager Co. uses process costing to account for the production of bottled energy drinks. Direct materials are added at the beginning of the process and conversion costs are incurred uniformly throughout the process. Equivalent units have been calculated to be 15,300 units for materials and 12,750 units for conversion costs. Beginning inventory consisted of $18,000 in materials and $15,000 in conversion costs.
