Department G had 2,280 units 25% completed at the beginning of the period, 13,200 units were completed during the period, 1,900 units were 20% completed at the end of the period, and the following manufacturing costs were debited to the departmental work in process account during the period: Work in process, beginning of period $29,400 Costs added during period: Direct materials (12,820 units at $9) 115,380 Direct labor 77,400 Factory overhead 25,800 All direct materials are placed in process at the beginning of production, and the first-in, first-out method of inventory costing is used. What is the total cost of the units started and completed during the period (round unit cost calculations to whole dollars and round your final answer to the nearest dollar)?

Department G

The total cost of the units started and completed during the period is:

= $184,717.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

FIFO Inventory costing method is used

                                           Units       Materials     Conversion

Beginning inventory        2,280          100%             25%  

Cost of beginning inventory  = $29,400

Units started                  12,820

Total units available       15,100

Units completed            13,200

Ending inventory             1,900           100%              20%

Started and completed 10,920 (13,200 - 2,280)

Equivalent units of production

                                                   Units       Materials         Conversion

Units in Beginning inventory    2,280              0 (0%)        1,710 (75%)

Units started and completed  10,920      10,920 (100%)  10,920 (100%)

Ending inventory                       1,900         1,900 (100%)       380 (20%)

Equivalent units                                         12,820               13,010

Costs added during the period          $115,380         $103,200

Equivalent units                                      12,820               13,010

Cost per equivalent unit                         $9.00                $7.93

Costs assigned to:

Beginning inventory                            $0             $13,603     $13,603

Cost of units started and completed 98,280       86,437       184,717

Ending inventory                                   17,100         3,013         20,113

answerall of the above;
