Additional conversion costs of $585,324 were incurred in the department during the month. What was the cost per equivalent unit for conversion costs for the month? (Round off to three decimal places.)

Respuesta :

Answer:

$6.892

Explanation:

Remember, the Conversion costs is implies a combination of direct labor costs and manufacturing overhead costs.

Therefore, from the question it is inferred that;

24,000 (Beginning of June work in process)

86,000 (Started into production during June)

19,000 (Ending work in process inventory)

91,000 (TransOut)

3800 (Equivalent End)

The Equivalent units for period = 94,800

$585,324 (Conversion cost for period for month)

$68,064 (Beginning Conversion cost)

-----------

$653,388 / 94,800 = $6.892 cost per equivalent unit
