Health Beverage Company uses a process costing system to collect costs related to the production of its celery flavored cola.
The cola is first processed in a Mixing Department at Health and is then transferred out and finished up in the Bottling Department.
The finished cases of cola are then transferred to Finished Goods Inventory.
The following information relates to Health's two departments for the month of January:
 
Cases of cola in WIP, January 1:                                                                 Mixing = 10,000; Bottling = 3,000
Cases of cola completed/transferred out during January:                  Mixing = 77,000; Bottling = ?
Cases of cola in WIP, January 31:                                                              Mixing = 4,000; Bottling = 8,000


72,000


 
3,000 + 77,000 - 8,000 = 72,000
 

 
The Assembly Department started the month with 24,000 units in its beginning work in process inventory.
An additional 309,000 units were transferred in from the prior department during the month to begin processing in the Assembly Department.
There were 29,000 units in the ending work in process inventory of the Assembly Department.
How many units were transferred to the next processing department during the month?
 
304,000
 
24,000 + 309,000 − 29,000 = 304,000
 

 
Bims Corporation uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system.
The Assembly Department started the month with 2,000 units in its beginning work in process inventory that were 70% complete with
respect to conversion costs. An additional 61,000 units were transferred in from the prior department during the month to begin processing in the Assembly Department.
There were 18,000 units in the ending work in process inventory of the Assembly Department that were 60% complete with
respect to conversion costs. What were the equivalent units for conversion costs in the Assembly Department for the month?
 
55,800
 
2,000 + 61,000 − 18,000 = 45,000
18,000 units × .6 = 10,800
10,800 + 55,800 = 55,800
