Soal 1:

17.29 Transferred-in costs, FIFO method. Refer to the information in Exercise 17-31. Suppose that Trendy uses the FIFO method instead
of the weighted-average method in all of its departments. The only changes to Exercise 17-31 under the FIFO method are that total
transferred-in costs of beginning work in process on June 1 are $45,000 (instead of $60,000) and total transferred-in costs added during June
are $114,000 (instead of $117,000).

Required:
Do Exercise 17-31 using the FIFO method. Note that you first need to calculate equivalent units of work done in the current period (for
transferred-in costs, direct materials, and conversion costs) to complete beginning work in process, to start and complete new units, and to
produce ending work in process.

Jawaban:
Transferred-in costs, FIFO method.

Solution Exhibit 17-32A calculates the equivalent units of work done in the current period (for transferred-in costs, direct-materials, and
conversion costs) to complete beginning work-inprocess inventory, to start and complete new units, and to produce ending work in process.
Solution Exhibit 17-32B summarizes total costs to account for, calculates the cost per equivalent unit of work done in the current period for
transferred-in costs, direct materials, and conversion costs, and assigns these costs to units completed and transferred out and to units in
ending workin-process inventory.
