7. The following pertains to a companys Finishing Department operation in May Units Work in process, May 1 Units started in May Units completed and finished goods Work in process, May 31 transferred to % completion 2,000 40% 10,00 0 8,000 ? 25%

Materials are added at the end of the process and conversion costs are incurred evenly throughout the process. The equivalent units of materials added during May were A. 8,000 B. 8,200 C. 9,100 D. 10,000 CIA 8. In a given process costing system, the EUP are computed using the weighted average method. With respect to conversion costs, the percentage of completion for the current period only is included in the calculation of the Beginning WIP Ending WIP A. No No B. No Yes C. Yes No D. No Yes

9.

Assuming no beginning work in process inventory and that the ending work in process inventory is 50% complete as to conversion costs, the number of equivalent units as to conversion costs would be AICPA A. The same as the units completed C. Less than the units completed B. The same as the units placed in process D. Less than the units placed in process 10. A company employs a process cost system using FIFO method. The product passes through both department 1 and department 2 in order to be completed. Units enter department 2 upon completion in department 1. Additional direct materials are added in department 2 when the units have reached the 25% stage of completion with respect to conversion costs. Conversion costs are added proportionally in department 2. The production activity in department 2 for the current month was as follows: Beginning work in process inventory (40% complete with respect to conversion costs) Units transferred in from department 1 Units to account for Units completed and transferred to finished goods Ending work in process inventory (20% complete with respect to conversion 15,000 80,000 95,000 85,000 10,000
