Basic Flows, Equivalent Units Thayn Company produces an arthritis medication that passes through two departments: mixing and tableting. Thayn uses the weighted average method. Data for February for mixing are as follows: BWIP was zero; EWIP had 36,000 units, 50% complete; and 470,000 units were started. Tableting's data for February are as follows: BWIP was 24,000 units, 20% complete; and 12,000 units were in EWIP, 40% complete. Required: 1. For Mixing, calculate the (a) number of units transferred to Tableting, and (b) equivalent units of production. a. Units transferred to Tableting b. Equivalent units of production 483,200 X units 452,000 units 2. For Tableting, calculate the number of units transferred out to Finished Goods. 488,000 X units 3. Conceptual Connection: Suppose that the units in the mixing department are measured in ounces, while the units in Tableting are measured in bottles of 100 tablets, with a total weight of eight ounces (excluding the bottle). Now, repeat Requirement 2 using this approach. Units transferred out 60,400 X units
