Chapter 6, Problem 43P

Novel Toys, Inc., manufactures plastic water guns. Each gun’s left and right frames are produced in the Molding Department. The left and right frames are then transferred to the Assembly Department where the trigger mechanism is inserted and the halves are glued together. (The left and right halves together define the unit of output for the Molding Department.) In June, the Molding Department reported the following data:

  1. a. In the Molding Department, all direct materials are added at the beginning of the process.
  2. b. Beginning work in process consisted of 3,000 units, 20 percent complete with respect to direct labor and overhead. Costs in beginning inventory included direct materials, $450; and conversion costs, $138.
  3. c. Costs added to production during the month were direct materials, $950; and conversion costs, $2,174.50.
  4. d. Inspection takes place at the end of the process. Malformed units are discarded. All spoilage is considered abnormal.
  5. e. During the month, 7,000 units were started, and 8,000 good units were transferred out to Finishing. All other units finished were malformed and discarded. There were 1,000 units that remained in ending work in process, 25 percent complete.

Required:

  1. 1. Prepare a physical flow schedule.
  2. 2. Calculate equivalent units of production using the weighted average method.
  3. 3. Calculate the unit cost.
  4. 4. What is the cost of goods transferred out? Ending work in process? Loss due to spoilage?
  5. 5. Prepare the journal entry to remove spoilage from the Molding Department.

Arona Corporation manufactures canoes in two departments, Fabrication and Waterproofing. In the Fabrication Department, fiberglass panels are attached to a canoe- shaped aluminum frame. The canoes are then transferred to the Waterproofing department to be coated with sealant. Arona uses a welghted-average process cost system to collect costs in both departments. All materials in the Fabrication Department are added at the beginning of the production process. On July 1, the Fabrication Department had 30 canoes in process that were 20% complete with respect to conversion cost. On July 31, Fabrication had 20 canoes in process that were 40% complete with respect to conversion cost. During July, the Fabrication Department completed 87 canoes and transferred them to the Waterproofing Department. What are the Fabrication Department's equivalent units of production related to materials for July? Multiple Cholce 95 79 117 107
