Flawless Cosmetic Company manufactures and distributes several different products. The company currently uses a plantwide allocation method for allocating overhead at a rate of $7 per direct labor hour. Loren is the department manager of the Makeup Department that produces Products - Concealer (C) and Glow Cream (GC). Jennifer is the department manager of the Hair Care Department that manufactures Product - Shampoo (S). The product costs (per case of 24 bottles) and other information are as follows: Products C GC. S Direct materials. $100.00 $72.00 $48.00 Direct labor 42.00 31.50 12.00 Overhead 28.00 21.00 14.00 --------------------------------- $170.00 $124.50 $74.00 Machine hours. 4 2 3 Number of cases (per year) 300 500 600 If Flawless changes its allocation basis to machine-hours, what is the total product cost per case for Product GC?

$117.15 Explanation: Total overhead = $28(300) + $21(500) + $14(600) = $27,300; Total machine hours = 4(300) + 2(500) + 3(600) = 4,000; Overhead rate = $27,300/4,000 = $6.825/MH; Product cost for GC: $72.00 + $31.50 + $6.825(2) = $117.15.

Parkway Company incurred $136,000 in material costs during July. Additionally, the 13,000 units in the Work-in-Process Inventory on July 1 had materials assigned to them of $42,000, even though they were only 10% complete as to materials. No additional units were started during July, and there were no unfinished units on hand on July 31. What is the material cost per equivalent unit for July, assuming Parkway uses weighted-average process costing?

$13.69 Explanation: $136,000 + $42,000)/13,000 = $13.69.

Department A had no Work-in-Process at the beginning of the period, 1,000 units were completed during the period, 200 units were 50% completed at the end of the period, and the following manufacturing costs were debited to the departmental Work-in-Process account during the period: Direct materials (1,200 at $10)$12,000 Direct labor 5,500 Factory overhead 4,400 Assuming that all direct materials are added at the beginning of production and Department A uses weighted-average process costing, what is the total cost of the departmental Work-in-Process Inventory at the end of the period?

$2,900 Explanation: Materials: $12,000/1,200 = $10.00 per unit; Conversion costs: ($5,500 + 4,400)/1,100 = $9.00; Ending inventory: 200($10.00) + 100($9.00) = $2,900

The Lakeside Company uses a weighted-average process costing system. The following data are available: Beginning inventory -0- Units started in production 20,000 Units finished during the period 16,000 Units in process at the end of the period(complete as to materials,¼ complete as to labor and overhead) 4,000 Cost of materials used $35,200 Labor and overhead costs$37,400 Cost per equivalent unit of labor and overhead is:

$2.20. Explanation: 16,000 + 4,000(0.25) = 17,000 EU; $37,400 ÷ 17,000 = $2.20 cost per EU.

Grayson Inc. has provided the following data for the month of October. The balance in the finished goods inventory account at the beginning of the month was $49,000 and at the end of the month was $45,000. The cost of goods manufactured for the month was $226,000. The actual manufacturing overhead cost incurred was $74,000 and the manufacturing overhead cost applied to work-in-process was $70,000. The adjusted cost of goods sold that would appear on the income statement for October is:

$234,000 Explanation: Adjusted COGS = Beginning FGI + COGM + Actual MOH - Applied MOH - Ending FGI. = $49,000 + $226,000 + $74,000 - $70,000 - $45,000 = $234,000 Adjusted COGS

Mission Company is preparing its annual profit plan. As part of its analysis of the profitability of individual products, the controller estimates the amount of overhead that should be allocated to the individual product lines from the information provided below. (CMA based) Wall Mirrors Specialty Windows Units Produced 20 20 Material moves per product line. 5 35 Direct labor hours per product line 600 700 Budgeted material handling costs:$132,000 Under an activity-based costing (ABC) system, the materials handling costs allocated to one unit of Specialty Windows would be:

$5,775.00. Explanation: $132,000/(5 + 35) = $3,300; ($3,300 × 35)/20 = $5,775.00.

Department B had a beginning inventory of 400 units, 1/4 completed; an ending inventory of 300 units, 2/3 completed, and received 900 units during the period from Department A. What were the equivalent units of production of Department B, assuming weighted-average process costing?

1,200 equivalent units Explanation: (400+900-300) + (300 x 2/3) = 1,200 equivalent units

The Fremont Company uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system. The company recorded 30,500 equivalent units for conversion costs for November in a particular department. There were 6,100 units in the ending work-in-process inventory on November 30, 80% complete with respect to conversion costs. The November 1 work-in-process inventory consisted of 8,100 units, 50% complete with respect to conversion costs. A total of 26,000 units were completed and transferred out of the department during the month. The number of units started during November in the department was

24,000 units. Explanation: Units started = Units completed and transferred out + Units in ending work-in-process − Units in beginning work-in-process = 26,000 + 6,100 − 8,100.= 24,000 units started.

The chart company has a process costing system. All materials added when the process is first begun. At the beginning of September, there were no units of product in process. During September 54,000 units were started, 5,400 of these were still in process at the end of September and were 3/5 finished. The equivalent units for the conversion costs in September were:

51,840 Explanation: Started and completed (54,000-5,400) + ending inventory 5,400(0.60) = 51,840 equivalent units

Madison Corporation's production cycle starts in the Processing Department. The following information is available for April: Units Work-in-process, April 1 (25% complete) 40,000 Total units in process during April 280,000 Work-in-process, April 30 (60% complete) 25,000 Materials are added at the beginning of the process in the Processing Department.
