Question : 36) Spoilage typically assumed to occur at the stage of : 1217032

 

36) Spoilage is typically assumed to occur at the stage of completion where inspection takes place.

37) Spoilage and rework costs are thoroughly captured in the accounting system.

 

38) Under the FIFO method, all spoilage costs are assumed to be related to the units completed during this period using the unit costs of the current period.

 

39) When spoiled goods have a disposal value, the net cost of spoilage is computed by adding the disposal value to the costs of the spoiled goods accumulated to the inspection point.

 

40) To simplify calculations under FIFO, spoiled units are accounted for as if they were started in the current period.

 

41) Normal spoilage costs are usually deducted from the costs of good units.

42) Identify the appropriate order of the following steps in the procedure for process costing with spoilage.

 

a.summarize total costs to account for

b.assign total costs to units completed, to spoiled units, and to units in ending inventory

c.summarize the flow of physical units

d.compute output in terms of equivalent units

e.compute cost per equivalent unit

43) Endicott Shoes manufactures shoes. All direct materials are included at the inception of the production process. For March, there were 1,400 units in beginning inventory with a direct material cost of $700. Direct materials totaled $15,000 for the month. Work-in-process records revealed that 35,000 units were started in March and that 30,000 were finished. Normal spoilage of 2% of units finished was incurred. Ending work-in-process units are complete in respect to direct materials costs. Spoilage is not detected until the process is complete. Endicott uses the weighted-average method.

 

Required:

a.What are the direct materials costs assigned to completed good units when spoilage units are recognized or when they are ignored?

 

b.What are the direct material amounts allocated to the work-in-process ending inventory when spoilage units are recognized or ignored?

 

44) Viking Sports is a manufacturer of sportswear. It produces all of its products in one department. The information for the current month is as follows:

Spoilage2,000 units

 

Beginning work-in-process direct materials$12,000

Beginning work-in-process conversion$ 4,000

Direct materials added during month$60,000

Direct manufacturing labor during month$20,000

 

Beginning work in process was half complete as to conversion. Direct materials are added at the beginning of the process. Factory overhead is applied at a rate equal to 50% of direct manufacturing labor. Ending work in process was 60% complete. All spoilage is normal and is detected at end of the process.

Required:

Prepare a production cost worksheet if spoilage is recognized and the weighted-average method is used.
