Cost Accounting Chapter 17
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.

Completed and transferred out during current period:
a
Degree of completion in this department: Transferred-in costs, 100%; direct materials, 0%; conversion costs, 50%.
b
120 physical units completed and transferred out minus 60 physical units completed and transferred out from beginning work-in-
process inventory.
c
Degree of completion in this department: transferred-in costs, 100%; direct materials, 0%; conversion costs, 75%.

17.30 Weighted-average method, assigning costs. ZanyBrainy Corporation makes interlocking children’s blocks in a single processing
department. Direct materials are added at the start of production. Conversion costs are added evenly throughout production. ZanyBrainy uses
the weighted-average method of process costing. The following information for October 2017 is available.
1. Calculate the cost per equivalent unit for direct materials and conversion costs.
2. Summarize the total costs to account for, and assign them to units completed (and transferred out) and to units in ending work in process.
