    1. Materials Conversion Costs

    Total equivalent units of production 17,200 15,800

    2. Cost per Equivalent Unit $ 4.05 $ 2.6

    Explanation:

    1. Equivalent Units

    Particulars Units % of Completion Equivalent Units

    Materials Conversion Materials Conversion

    Transferred Out 13,700 100 100 13,700 13,700

    Ending Inventory 3500 100 60 3500 2100

    Total Equivalent Units 17,200 15,800

    The Ending Inventory units are 3500 which are not yet complete.

    Materials Conversion Costs

    Total equivalent units of production 17,200 15,800

    2. Cost Per Equivalent Units

    Materials Conversion

    Cost Added 69,660 18,480 + 22,600

    Total Costs 69,660 41,080

    Equivalent Units 17,200 15,800

    Cost per Equivalent Unit 69,660 / 17,200 41,080 / 15,800

    $ 4.05 $ 2.6

    Cost of Ending Work In Process $ 19635

    Materials = 3500 * $ 4.05 = $ 14175

    Conversion = 2100 * $ 2.6 = $ 5460

    We multiply the equivalent number of units with the cost per unit to find the cost.

    Cost Of Units Transferred Out = $ 91,105

    Materials = 13,700 * $ 4.05 = $ 55,485

    Conversion = 13,700 * $ 2.6 = $ 35620

    B. A Cost Reconciliation Report

    Materials Conversion

    Ending WIP $ 14175 $ 5460

    Transferred Out $ 55,485 $ 35620

    Total $ 69660 41080

    These calculated costs reconcile with the costs given in the above data.

    Materials Conversion

    Cost Added 69,660 18,480 + 22,600

    Total Costs 69,660 41,080

    These costs reconcile with the given costs.
