    Equivalent units for conversion costs
    1. Case 20.4
    The USA Company manufactures flags in a single process. The following information is available:

    Work in process inventory, Jan. 1 —0— units
    Units started in production 18,000 units
    Units completed and transferred out 12,000 units
    Work in process inventory, Dec. 31 6,000 units
    Production costs:
    Direct materials $213,885
    Direct labor 577,500
    Manufacturing overhead 391,875

    The units still in process are 45% complete with respect to direct materials and 35% complete with respect to conversion costs.

    Refer to Case 20.4. What are the equivalent units for conversion costs?
    A) 13,750 units
    B) 12,000 units
    C) 14,100 units
    D) 14,700 units

    2. Case 20.7
    Forsyth Company produces calendars in a one-process department. Materials are introduced at the beginning of the process. Conversion is applied uniformly throughout the process. The weighted-average method of costing is used. Data for the current period is as follows:

    Beginning work in process inventory (40% complete) 22,500 units
    Units started in current period 130,000 units
    Units completed in current period 124,000 units
    Ending work in process inventory ( 60% complete) 28,500 units

    Costs contained in beginning work in process inventory
    Direct materials $51,900
    Conversion $20,174
    Costs added during current period
    Direct materials $430,000
    Conversion $310,000

    Refer to Case 20.7. What are the equivalent units for conversion?
    A) 124,000
    B) 152,500
    C) 141,100
