Alchemy Manufacturing produces a pesticide chemical and uses process costing. There are three processing departments Mixing, Refining, and Packaging. On January 1, the first department-Mixing-had no beginning inventory. During January, 52,000 fl. oz. of chemicals were started in production. Of these, 36,000 fl. oz. were completed and 16,000 fl. oz. remained in process. In the Mixing Department, all direct materials are added at the beginning of the production process, and conversion costs are applied evenly throughout the process. The weighted average method is used. At the end of the month, Alchemy calculated equivalent units of production. The ending inventory in the Mixing Department was 70% complete with respect to conversion costs. With respect to direct materials, what is the number of equivalent units of production in the ending inventory? OA. 16,000 equivalent units B. 36,000 equivalent units OC. 52,000 equivalent units OD. 11,200 equivalent units ***

Eco−Eliminator Manufacturing produces a chemical pesticide and uses process costing. There are three processing departments—Mixing, Refining, and Packaging. On January 1, the first department—Mixing—had no beginning inventory. During January, 50,000 fl. oz. of chemicals were started in production. Of these, 42,000 fl. oz. were completed, and 8,000 fl. oz. remained in process. In the Mixing Department, all direct materials are added at the beginning of the production process, and conversion costs are applied evenly throughout the process. The weighted−average method is used. At the end of January, the equivalent unit data for the Mixing Department were as follows: UNITS Equivalent Units Equivalent Units Units to be accounted for Direct Materials Costs Conversion Costs Completed and transferred out 42,000 42,000 42,000 Ending work−in−process* 8,000 8,000 3,200 50,000 50,000 45,200 * Percent complete for…
Washington State Fisheries, Inc., processes salmon for various distributors. Two departments, processing and packaging, are involved. Data relating to tons of salmon sent to the processing department during May follow: Percent Completed Tons of Salmon Direct Materials Conversion Work-in-process inventory, May 1 1,840 80 % 70 % Work-in-Process inventory, May 31 2,560 50 % 30 % Started processing during May 9,600 Required: 1. Calculate the number of tons completed and transferred out during the month. 2.
