Production Report

For the month of July

Equivalent units of production:

Beginning work in process       18,000                  7,200 (40%)

Units started and completed 139,000               139,000 (100%)

Ending work in process           16,000                   7,200 (45%)

Total equivalent units of production                 153,400

Cost per equivalent unit:

Costs added during July $398,460

Equivalent units                 153,400

Cost per equivalent unit = $2.60 ($398,460/153,400)

Cost to be accounted for:

Work in process, July 1                  $36,000

Costs added during July               398,460

Total costs to be accounted for $434,460

Costs assigned:

Beginning work in process = $18,720 (7,200 * $2.60)

Units started and completed = $361,400 (139,000 * $2.60)

Ending work in process =  $18,720 (7,200 * $2.60)

Costs assigned to:

Units completed and transferred out:

 Beginning work in process costs:

   60% completion =     $36,000

   40% completion =        18,720

 Units started and

  completed in July =   361,400

Total costs assigned to

 units transferred out =                 $416,120

Cost of ending work in process =    18,720

Total costs assigned =                 $434,840

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

FIFO Method

                                                      Units       Degree of Completion

July 1 work in process                 18,000                   60%

Units transferred out                 141,000

July 31 work in process              16,000                    45%

Production units available       157,000

Beginning work in process       18,000                   40% to be completed

Units started and completed 139,000                   100%
