Prepare journal entries that reflect these cost transfers.arrow_forwardJackson Products produces a barbeque sauce using three departments: Cooking, Mixing, and Bottling. In the Cooking Department, all materials are added at the beginning of the process. Output is measured in ounces. The production data for July are as follows: With respect to conversion costs. Required: 1. Prepare a physical flow schedule for July. 2. Prepare an equivalent units schedule for July using the weighted average method. 3. What if you were asked to calculate the FIFO units beginning with the weighted average equivalent units? Calculate the weighted average equivalent units by subtracting out the prior-period output found in BWIP.arrow_forwardDama Company produces womens blouses and uses the FIFO method to account for its manufacturing costs. The product Dama makes passes through two processes: Cutting and Sewing. During April, Damas controller prepared the following equivalent units schedule for the Cutting Department: Costs in beginning work in process were direct materials, 20,000; conversion costs, 80,000. Manufacturing costs incurred during April were direct materials, 240,000; conversion costs, 320,000. Required: 1. Prepare a physical flow schedule for April. 2. Compute the cost per equivalent unit for April. 3. Determine the cost of ending work in process and the cost of goods transferred out. 4.

- Hart Manufacturing makes three products. Each product requires manufacturing operations in three departments: A, B, and C. The labor-hour requirements, by department, are as follows: During the next production period the labor-hours available are 450 in department A, 350 in department B, and 50 in department C. The profit contributions per unit are 25 for product 1, 28 for product 2, and 30 for product 3. a. Formulate a linear programming model for maximizing total profit contribution. b. Solve the linear program formulated in part (a). How much of each product should be produced, and what is the projected total profit contribution? c. After evaluating the solution obtained in part (b), one of the production supervisors noted that production setup costs had not been taken into account. She noted that setup costs are 400 for product 1, 550 for product 2, and 600 for product 3. If the solution developed in part (b) is to be used, what is the total profit contribution after taking into account the setup costs? d. Management realized that the optimal product mix, taking setup costs into account, might be different from the one recommended in part (b). Formulate a mixed-integer linear program that takes setup costs provided in part (c) into account. Management also stated that we should not consider making more than 175 units of product 1, 150 units of product 2, or 140 units of product 3. e. Solve the mixed-integer linear program formulated in part (d). How much of each product should be produced and what is the projected total profit contribution? Compare this profit contribution to that obtained in part (c).arrow_forwardJackson Products produces a barbeque sauce using three departments: Cooking, Mixing, and Bottling.

What if 60 percent of the materials were added at the beginning of the process and 40 percent were added at the end of the process (all ingredients used are treated as the same type or category of materials)? How many equivalent units of materials would there be?arrow_forwardHolmes Products, Inc., produces plastic cases used for video cameras. The product passes through three departments. For April, the following equivalent units schedule was prepared for the first department: Costs assigned to beginning work in process: direct materials, 90,000; conversion costs, 33,750. Manufacturing costs incurred during April: direct materials, 75,000; conversion costs, 220,000. Holmes uses the weighted average method. Required: 1. Compute the unit cost for April. 2.

- Kokomo Kayak Inc. uses the process cost system. The following data, taken from the organizations books, reflect the results of manufacturing operations during the month of March: Production Costs Work in process, beginning of period: Costs incurred during month: Production Data: 18,000 units finished and transferred to stockroom. Work in process, end of period, 3,000 units, two-thirds completed. Required: Prepare a cost of production summary for March.arrow_forwardThe standard cost summary for the most popular product of Phenom Products Co. is shown as follows, together with production and cost data for the period. One gallon each of liquid lead and varnish are added at the start of processing. The balance of the materials is added when the process is two-thirds complete. Labor and overhead are added evenly throughout the process. There were no units in process at the beginning of the month. Required: Calculate equivalent production for materials, labor, and overhead. (Be sure to refer to the standard cost summary to help determine the percentage of materials in ending work in process.) Calculate materials and labor variances and indicate whether they are favorable or unfavorable, using the diagram format shown in Figure 8-4. Determine the cost of materials and labor in the work in process account at the end of the month.arrow_forwardDante Carpet Manufacturing Inc. uses a process costing system and calculates per-unit costs using the weighted average method. The company has two sequential production departments, Extrusion and Weaving. The following data relates to production for both departments for its Rayon carpet brand for the month of January. Note that since carpet is sold by the square yard, each “unit" refers to a square yard of carpet: Extrusion department: Beginning Work in Process Inventory: 300 units, 40% complete with respect to conversion Ending Work in Process Inventory: 250 units, 20% complete with respect to conversion Weaving department: Beginning Work in Process Inventory: 200 units, 30% complete with respect to conversion Ending Work in Process Inventory: 400 units, 35% complete with respect to conversion All direct materials are added at the beginning of the extrusion process, and conversion costs are assumed to be incurred uniformly.
