Togo Co. uses process costing to account for the production of picture frames. Direct materials are added at the beginning of the process and conversion costs are incurred uniformly throughout the process. Equivalent units have been calculated to be 12,000 units for materials and 10,000 units for conversion costs. Beginning inventory consisted of $14,000 in materials and $8,000 in conversion costs. April costs were $72,000 for materials and $80,000 for conversion costs. Ending inventory still in process was 4,000 units (100% complete for materials, 50% for conversion) . The value of ending inventory using the weighted average method would be closest to:


A) $31,933.60
B) $46,266.80
C) $63,866.80
D) $130,000.00

Swan Corp. began work on 3,000 units this period. Work in Process Inventory was 500 at the beginning of the period (60% complete) and 1,000 at the end of the period (50% complete). Beginning inventory costs were $3,000 for conversion costs and $7,000 for direct materials. During the period, Swan incurred $75,000 for conversion costs and $52,500 for direct materials. Swan uses the weighted average method of process costing. Direct materials are added at the beginning of the process, and conversion costs are incurred evenly throughout the period. Required: Using the weighted average method, compute: a. How many units were completed during the period? b. Determine the number of equivalent units for direct materials. c. Determine the number of equivalent units for conversion costs. d. Calculate the cost per equivalent unit for direct materials. e. Determine the cost per equivalent unit for conversion costs. f. Determine the cost assigned to ending Work in Process Inventory. g. Determine the cost assigned to goods completed and transferred out.
