4. Cost per unit of the completed beginning work in process inventory, rounded to the nearest cent

b. Did the production costs change from the preceding period? Explain.

c. Assuming that the direct materials cost per unit did not change from the preceding period, did the conversion costs per equivalent unit increase, decrease, or remain the same for the current period?

SOLUTION

a.

1. $21,808; determined as follows:

Beginning work in process balance…………………………… $ 17,440

Conversion costs incurred during period

(1,040 equivalent units × $4.20)……………………………… 4,368

Cost of beginning work in process completed during period…… $ 21,808

2. Cost of beginning work in process……………………………… $ 21,808

Cost of units started and completed during period*…………… 383,600

Cost of units transferred to finished goods during period…........ $ 405,408
