Cost Accounting Ch.18 Problems
Cartwright Custom Carpentry manufactures chairs in its Processing Department. Direct materials are included at the inception of the production cycle and must be bundled in single kits for each unit. Conversion costs are incurred evenly throughout the production cycle. Inspection takes place as units are placed into production. After inspection, some units are spoiled due to nondetectible material defects. Spoiled units generally constitute 3% of the good units. Data provided for March 20x3 are as follows: WIP, beginning inventory 3/1/20x3 30,000 units Direct materials (100% complete) Conversion costs (89.5% complete) Started during March 80,000 units Completed and transferred out 86,000 units WIP, ending inventory 3/31/20x3 20,000 units Direct materials (100% complete) Conversion costs (75% complete) Costs: WIP, beginning inventory: Direct materials $ 70,000 Conversion costs 40,000 Direct materials added 160,000 Conversion costs added 120,000 50. What are the normal and abnormal spoilage units, respectively, for March when using FIFO? a. 2,580 units; 1,420 units b. 1,950 units; 1,390 units c. 1,690 units; 1,050 units d. 1,420 units; 2,000 units

58. The Harleysville Manufacturing Shop produces motorcycle parts. Typically, 10 pieces out of a job lot of 1,000 parts are spoiled. Costs are assigned at the inspection point, $50.00 per unit. Spoiled pieces may be disposed of at $10.00 per unit. The spoiled goods must be inventoried appropriately when the normal spoilage is detected. The current job requires the production of 2,500 good parts. Which of the following journal entries properly reflects the recording of spoiled goods? a. Materials Control $ 200 Manufacturing Overhead Control $ 800 Work-in-Process Control $1,000 b. Materials Control $ 250 Manufacturing Overhead Control $1,000 Work-in-Process Control $1,250 c.
