Requirement4:
The Cost of goods completed and transferred out

Answer to Problem 13P
Solution: The statement showing the cost of units completed and transferred out shall be as under:
Units Completed and Transferred out (50 units)
|
Equivalent unit | Cost per EU | Total Cost | ||||
Transferred-in cost | 50 | 1630 | 81500 | ||||
Material cost | 50 | 120 | 6000 | ||||
Conversion Cost | 50 | 850 | 42500 | ||||
Total Cost of Units completed and transferred out: | 130000 |
Explanation of Solution
The total cost of units completed and transferred out shall be computed by multiplying the equivalent units of each element in units completed (which is equal to completed units only) by cost per equivalent unit of respective element. The Summation of each element cost is the total cost of ending work in process.

Explanation of Solution
The total cost to account for is the total cost of beginning work in process and cost added during the period in the process. The total cost accounted for is the cost assigned to ending work in process and units completed and transferred out.
The reconciliation means there shall be not be any difference between the total cost to account for and total accounted in the period.
To conclude, it must be said that the equivalent units in each inventory shall multiplied with respective cost per equivalent unit and cost of each element is added up to arrive at the total cost of ending work in process and completed units.
