Calculating conversion costs and unit cost
Russia Spring produces premium bottled water. Russia Spring purchases artesian water, stores the water in large tanks, and then runs the water through two processes: filtration and bottling.
During February, the filtration process incurred the following
Wages of workers operating filtration equipment $ 19,950
Manufacturing
150,000
Russia Spring had no beginning Work-in-Process Inventory in the Filtration Department in February.
Requirements
1. Compute the February conversion costs in the Filtration Department.
2. The Filtration Department completely processed 150.000 liters in February. What was the filtration cost per liter?
Note- Short Exercise S20-5 must be completed before attempting Short Exercise S20-6.
S20-6 Computing EUP
Refer to Short Exercise S20-5. At Russia Spring, water is added at the beginning of the filtration process. Conversion costs are added evenly throughout the process. Now assume that in February, 80,000 liters were completed and transferred out of the Filtration Department into the Bottling Department. The 70,000 liters remaining in Filtration’s ending Work-in-Process Inventory were 80% of the way through the filtration process. Recall that Russia Spri9ng has no beginning inventories.
Compute the equivalent units of production for direct materials and conversion costs for the Filtration Department.

A total of 21,500 units of this part are produced and used every year. The Accounting Department reports: Direct materials Direct labor Variable manufacturing overhead Supervisor's salary Depreciation of special equipment Allocated general overhead An outside vendor has offered to sell the part to the company for $31.50 each. If this offer is accepted, the supervisor's salary and all of the variable costs can be avoided. The special equipment used to make the part has no salvage value or other use. None of the allocated general overhead would be avoided if the part were purchased. Also, the space used to make the part could be used to make more of one of the company's other products, generating an additional segment margin of $33,500 per year.

The manufacturing process consists of three activities: Mixing: water, sugar, and beverage concentrate are mixed. Filling: mixed beverage is filled into 12-oz. cans. Packaging: properly filled cans are boxed into cardboard “fridge packs.” The activity costs associated with these activities for the period are as follows: Mixing $354,000 Filling 313,000 Packaging 138,000 Total $805,000 The activity costs do not include materials costs, which are ignored for this analysis. Each can is expected to contain 12 ounces of beverage. Thus, after being filled, each can is automatically weighed. If a can is too light, it is rejected, or “kicked,” from the filling line prior to being packaged. The primary cause of kicks is heat expansion. With heat expansion, the beverage overflows during filling, resulting in underweight cans. This process begins by mixing and filling 11,960,000 cans during the period, of which only…arrow_forward
