Recently, Mewah Designs expanded its market by becoming an original equipment supplier to
Jee Wrangler. Mewah Designs produces factory upgraded speakers specifically for Jee
Wrangler. The Kicker components and speaker cabinets are outsourced with assembly
remaining in-house. Mewah Designs assemble the product by placing the speakers and other
components in cabinets that define an audio package upgrade and that can be placed into the
Jee Wrangler, producing the desired factory-installed appearance. Speaker cabinets and
associated Kicker components are added at the beginning of the assembly process.
Assume that Mewah Designs uses the weighted-average method to cost out the audio package.
The following are cost and production data for the assembly process for April:
Production:
Units in process, April 1, 60% complete 60,000
Units completed and transferred out 150,000
Units in process, April 30, 20% complete 30,000
Costs:
WIP, April 1:
Cabinets RM 1,200,000
Kicker components RM 12,600,000
Conversion costs RM 5,400,000
Costs added during April:
Cabinets RM 2,400,000
Kicker components RM 25,200,000
Conversion costs RM 8,640,000
a) Develop a physical flow analysis for the assembly department for the month of April.
b) Calculate equivalent units of production for the assembly department for the month of
April.
c) Calculate the unit cost for the assembly department for the month of April.
d) Calculate the cost of units transferred out and the cost of EWIP inventory.
e) Develop a cost reconciliation for the assembly department for the month of April.

To date, MSI has developed and manufactured all the CDs itself as well as the accessories and packaging for all of its products.The gaming market has traditionally been targeted at teenagers and young adults; however, the increasing affordability of computers and the incorporation of computer activities into junior high and elementary school curriculums has led to a significant increase in sales to younger children. MSI has always included games for younger children but now wants to expand its business to capitalize on changes in the industry. The company currently has excess capacity and is investigating several possible ways to improve profitability.

The company produces two, related, parts at its Park River Plant, the models SF-08 and SF-48. The differences in the models are the quality of the materials and the precision to which they are produced. The SF-48 model is used in applications where the precision is critical and thus requires greater oversight in the production process. Although sales remain reasonably strong, managers at SFG have noticed that the company is meeting more resistance to the pricing for SF-08, although there seems to be little need for negotiation on the price of the SF-48 model. As a result, the marketing manager at SFG has asked the financial staff to review the costs of the two products to understand better what might be happening in the market. Manufacturing overhead is currently assigned to products based on their direct labor costs. For the most recent month manufacturing overhead was $201,600.…

- B.E. Kemper, LLC (KEMPER) is a custom parts fabricator supporting the classic auto and recreational marine industries. The company is evaluating a proposal by its Marketing department to develop one-of-a-kind, customize parts for resto-mod professionals and the hobbyist in their desire for that special, unique "new" old car/truck.

Its Valley plant specializes in two electronic components used in circuit boards. These components serve the same function and perform equally well. The difference in the two products is the raw material. The XL-D chip is the older of the two components and is made with a metal that requires a wash prior to assembly. Originally, the plant released the wastewater directly into a local river. Several years ago, the company was ordered to treat the wastewater before its release, and it installed relatively expensive equipment. While the equipment is fully depreciated, annual operating expenses of $260,000 are still incurred for wastewater treatment. Two years ago, company scientists developed an alloy with all of the properties of the raw materials used in XL-D that generates no wastewater. Some prototype components using the new material were produced and tested and found to be indistinguishable from the old…
