Weighted-Average – An Example
Smith Company reported the following activity in
the Assembly Department for the month of June:
Percent Completed
Units Materials Conversion
Work in process, June 1 300 40% 20%
Weighted-Average – An Example
The first step in calculating the equivalent units is to identify
the units completed and transferred out of Assembly
Department in June (5,400 units)
Materials Conversion
Units completed and transferred
out of the Department in June 5,400 5,400
4-35
Weighted-Average – An Example
The second step is to identify the equivalent units of production
in ending work in process with respect to materials for the
month (540 units) and adding this to the 5,400 units from
step one.
Materials Conversion
Units completed and transferred
out of the Department in June 5,400 5,400
Work in process, June 30:
900 units × 60% 540
Weighted-Average – An Example
The third step is to identify the equivalent units of production in
ending work in process with respect to conversion for the month
(270 units) and adding this to the 5,400 units from step one.
Materials Conversion
Units completed and transferred
out of the Department in June 5,400 5,400
Work in process, June 30:
900 units × 60% 540
900 units × 30% 270
Equivalent units of Production in
the Department during June 5,940 5,670
4-37
Weighted-Average – An Example
Equivalent units of production always equals:
Units completed and transferred
+ Equivalent units remaining in work in process
Materials Conversion
Units completed and transferred
out of the Department in June 5,400 5,400
Work in process, June 30:
