Question : (TCO F) The Illinois Company manufactures a product that goes through three processing departments. Information relating to activity in the first department during June is given below: Percent completed Units Materials Conversion Work in process, June 1 150,000 75% 55% Work in process, Jun 30 145,000 85% 75% The department started 475,000 units into production during the month and transferred 480,000 completed units to the next department. REQUIRED: Compute the equivalent units of production for the first department for June, assuming that the company uses the weighted-average method of accounting for units and costs. Student Answer: Percent Complete Units Materials Conversion Beginning work in process 150000 0.75 0.55 Units started into production 475000 "Units completed during June and transferred to the next department" 325000 Ending work in process 145000 0.85 0.75 Materials Conversion Units transferred to the next dept 325000 325000 Ending work in process Materials 145000x85% complete 123250 Conversion 145000x75% complete 108750 Equivalent units of production 448250 433750 Instructor Explanation: Equivalent Units Materials Conversion Units transferred to the next department 480,000 480,000 Ending Work in process: Materials 145000 x 85% 123,250 Conversion 145000 x 75% 108,750 Equivalent units of production 603,250 588,750 Points Received: 15 of 20 Comments: 3.

Break even point in dollars Break-even Point in Sales $ = Total Fixed Expenses ÷ Contribution Margin Ratio Total Fixed Expenses:$375000 Contribution Margin Ratio = $600,000/$1350000=.44 Break even point in dollars =$843,750 Instructor Explanation: a. Total CM / total units = $600,000 /45,000 units = $1.33 per unit b. Breakeven = FC / CM per unit = $375,000 /$1.33 = 281,955 units x $30 per unit* = $8,458,650 * Sales at $1,350,000 /45,000units = $30 per unit Points Received: 25 of 25 Comments: 4.
