Question Number 3
Assume that El Paso Corporation provides you with the following information for one of its
departments operations for September (no new material is added in Department B):
WIP inventoryDepartment B
Beginning inventory (8,200 units, 20% complete with
respect to Department B costs)
Transferred-in costs (from Department A) $ 35,830
Department B conversion costs 8,930
Current work (18,900 units started)
Prior department costs 88,830
Department B costs 167,020
The ending inventory has 3,200 units, which are 50 percent complete with respect to Department B costs
and 100 percent complete for prior department costs.
Required:
Use a production cost report using FIFO. (Round your amounts to the nearest whole unit/dollar except
for "cost per equivalent unit" which should be rounded to two decimal places.)

Question Number 5
Washington, Inc., makes three models of motorized carts for vacation resorts, X-10, X-20, and X-40.
Washington manufactures the carts in two assembly departments: Department A and Department B. All
three models are processed initially in Department A, where all material is assembled. The X-10 model is
then transferred to finished goods. After processing in Department A, the X-20 and X-40 models are
transferred to Department B for final assembly, and then transferred to finished goods.
There were no beginning work-in-process inventories on April 1. Data for April are shown in the
following table. Ending work in process is 20 percent complete in Department A and 60 percent complete
in Department B. Conversion costs are allocated based on the number of equivalent units processed in
each department.
Conversion
costs:
Department
$ 274,800

B
Total
conversion $ 316,400
costs
Required:
(a) What is the unit cost of each model transferred to finished goods in April? (Do not round
intermediate calculations. Round final answers to the nearest dollar amounts and units.)
(b) What is the balance of work-in-process inventory on April 30 for Department A? Department B? (Do
not round intermediate calculations. Round final answers to the nearest dollar amounts and
units.)
