MC Qu. 94 A company uses a process... A company uses a process costing system. Its Assembly Department's beginning inventory consisted of 57,200 units, 75% complete with respect to direct labor and overhead. The direct labor beginning inventory costs were $10,700. The department completed and transferred out 109,500 units this period. The ending inventory consists of 47,200 units that are 25% complete with respect to direct labor and overhead. All direct materials are added at the beginning of the process. The department incurred direct labor costs of $42,000 and overhead costs of $50,000 for the period. Assuming the weighted average method, the direct labor cost per equivalent unit (rounded to the nearest cent) is:

$0.43

Explanation:

                                  Equivalent Units

                                                                                         Labor

                                                                       % Completion       Units

Units Completed and Transferred out                100%             109,500

Ending Work in Process                                       25%               11,800  

Total Equivalent units                                                                 121,300  

Particulars                                         Amount

Beginning work in Process               10,700

Cost Added during May                    42,000

Total cost added during the year   $52,700

Cost per Equivalent unit = Total cost added during the year / Total Equivalent units

Cost per Equivalent unit = $52,700 / 121,300 units

Cost per Equivalent unit = 0.43446002

Cost per Equivalent unit = $0.43
