A company uses a process costing system.Its Welding Department completed and transferred out 100,000 units during the current period.The ending inventory in the Welding Department consists of 30,000 units (75% complete with respect to direct materials and 40% complete with respect to conversion costs) . Determine the equivalent units of production for the Welding Department for direct materials and conversion costs assuming the weighted average method.

Equivalent units of production for direct materials and direct labor are usually the same.

Port Manufacturing Company uses a process costing system.Materials are added at the beginning of the process.Direct labor and overhead are added evenly throughout the process.The company uses monthly reporting periods for its weighted-average process costing.The following are the operating and cost data information for October.
