Morrison Company had the equivalent units schedule and cost information for its Sewing Department for the month of December, as shown below. Units completed Add: Units in ending work in process x Percentage complete: 16,000 x 100% direct materials 16,000 x 40% conversion materials Eqivalent units of output Costs: Work in process, December 1: Direct materials Conversion costs Total work in process Current costs: Direct materials Conversion costs Total current costs Required: Direct Materials 41,000 16,000 57,000 Conversion Costs 41,000 6,400 47,400 $66,000 14,000 $80,000 $500,000 183,000 $683,000 1. Calculate the unit cost for December, using the weighted average method. Round final answer to the nearest cent. (NOTE: retain unrounded interim amounts for use in part 2.)
Required: 1. Calculate the unit cost for December, using the weighted average method. Round final answer to the nearest cent. (NOTE: retain unrounded interim amounts for use in part 2.) 2. Calculate the cost of goods transferred out, calculate the cost of EWIP, and reconcile the costs assigned with the costs to account for. Using interim amounts from part 1 (unrounded amounts), compute each amount. Then round only final answers to the nearest dollar. Cost of goods transferred out: Units completed Cost of EWIP per equivalent unit Total costs assigned (accounted for) Reconciliation Cost to account for: BWIP $ Current (December) Total 3. What if you were asked to show that the weighted average unit cost for materials is the blend of the November unit materials cost and the December unit materials cost? The November unit materials cost is $4.13 ($66,000 / 16,000), and the December unit materials cost is $12.20 ($500,000/41,000). The equivalent units in BWIP are 16,000, and the FIFO equivalent units are 41,000. Calculate the weighted average unit materials cost using weights defined as the proportion of total units completed from each source (BWIP output and current output). Round final answer to the nearest cent. per unit
