1.

A process costing system was used for a department that began operations in
January. Approximately the same number of physical units, at the same degree of
completion were in work-in-progress at the end of both January and February.
Monthly conversion costs are allocated between ending work in process and units
completed. Compared to the FIFO method, would the weighted-average method use
the same or a greater number of equivalent units to calculate the monthly
allocations?

Equivalent units for weighted average compared to FIFO => same/greater

January

blank same

February

blank greater

Greater number Same


2. Activities in the Challenger Corporation's Assembly Department for the month of March follow:

Percent Complete

Units Materials Conversion

Work-in-process inventory, March 1 5,000 65 % 30 %

Started into production during March 65,000

Work-in-process inventory, March 31 3,000 35 % 25 %

Using the FIFO method, the equivalent units for conversion for March would be:
67750

1 Hall Company uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system. The
production department started the month with VND20,000,000 of direct material costs in
this beginning work in process inventory. A total of VND160,000,000 in direct material
costs were incurred in the production department during the month. Direct material costs
were fulfilled at the start of production process. As at month-end, there were 60 units
completed in the production department, 20 units in the ending work in process inventory
that were 50% completion, 10 units treated as normal losses as they are substandard.

The direct material cost of ending work in process inventory in the production department
according to the company's cost system is closest to:

a.
VND60,000,000

b.
All answers are incorrect

c.
VND25,714,000
