There is no beginning or ending WIP in any department. Required: 1. Prepare a schedule showing, for each department, the cost of direct materials, direct labor, applied overhead, product transferred in from a prior department, and total manufacturing cost. 2.

Explanation / Answer

1 Molding Department Grinding Department Fishing Department Direct Materials $       1,44,100 $           16,100 $           10,500 Direct Labour $           14,600 $           34,400 $           22,800 Applied Overhead $           17,400 $       1,36,000 $           18,900 Costs Added $       1,76,100 $       1,86,500 $           52,200 Costs transferred in $                    -   $       1,76,100 $       3,62,600 Costs transferred out $       1,76,100 $       3,62,600 $       4,14,800 2 Calculation of unit Cost = (Total Cost transferred Out - Total Cost transferred In) / No. Of Components [($9,53,500 - 5,38,700) / 8,900] = $             46.61 Calculation of unit Cost = $             46.61 Costs transferred out Costs transferred in Molding Department $       1,76,100 $                    -   Grinding Department $       3,62,600 $       1,76,100 Fishing Department $       4,14,800 $       3,62,600 Total $       9,53,500 $       5,38,700
