O'Leary Company manufactures Product Z in a two-stage production cycle in Departments A and B. Materials are added at the beginning of the process in Department B. O'Leary uses the weighted-average method. Conversion costs for Department B were 40% complete as to the 5,000 units in the beginning work-in-process (WIP) inventory and 50% complete as to the 7,000 units in the ending work-in-process inventory. 10,000 units were completed and transferred out of Department B during October. An analysis of the costs relating to work-in-process inventories and production activity in Department B for October follows: TransIn/Materials/Conversion WIP October 1 --- 10,000/3000/1000 Costs added ------ 24000/5500/4400 The total cost per equivalent unit transferred-out for October of Product Z, rounded to the nearest penny, was:

Universal Automotive Group is a maker of engines for high performance cars and uses a process costing system. The following information pertains to the final department of manufacturing for Universal's most popular engine, the "Atomic 8". Beginning WIP (40% completed) - 400 Transferred in 1600 Normal Spoilage 100 Abnormal Spoilage 100 Transferred Out 1400 Ending WIP (25% completed) 400 Costs Conversion beginning inventory 180,500 Current Conversion Costs 728,218 Universal Automotive Group calculates separate costs of spoilage by computing both normal and abnormal spoiled units. Normal spoilage costs are reallocated to good units and abnormal spoilage costs are charged as a loss. The units of the Atomic 8 that are spoiled are the result of defects not discovered before inspection of finished units. Using the weighted-average method, answer the following question: What are the total conversion costs transferred to finished goods?

801,810 Determine EQ for Conversion Transferred out + spoilage + Ending % 1400 + 100 +100 + (400*25%) = 1700 Determine per unit conversion costs (180500+728218)/1700 = 534.54 Total units in Finished Goods Transferred Out + Ending 25% 1400+100=1500 1500*534.54 = 801,810
