WIP inventory—Finishing
Beginning inventory (10,200 units, 20% complete with respect to Finishing costs)
Transferred-in costs (from Mixing) $ 113,520
Finishing conversion costs 3,493
Current work (98,400 units started)
Mixing costs 885,600
Finishing costs 417,732

The ending inventory has 14,200 units, which are 50 percent complete with respect to Finishing Department costs and 100 percent complete for Mixing Department costs.

Required:

Complete the production cost report using the weighted-average method. (Round "Cost per equivalent unit" to 2 decimal places.)

Scribners Corporation produces fine papers in three production departments—Pulping, Drying, and Finishing. In the Pulping Department, raw materials such as wood fiber and rag cotton are mechanically and chemically treated to separate their fibers. The result is a thick slurry of fibers. In the Drying Department, the wet fibers transferred from the Pulping Department are laid down on porous webs, pressed to remove excess liquid, and dried in ovens. In the Finishing Department, the dried paper is coated, cut, and spooled onto reels. The company uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system. Data for March for the Drying Department follow: Percent Completed Units Pulping Conversion Work in process inventory, March 1 5,000 100 % 20 % Work in process inventory, March 31 8,000 100 % 25 % Pulping cost in work in process inventory, March 1 $ 4,800 Conversion cost in work in process inventory, March 1 $ 500 Units transferred to the next production department 157,000 Pulping cost added during March $ 102,450 Conversion cost added during March $ 31,300 No materials are added in the Drying Department. Pulping cost represents the costs of the wet fibers transferred in from the Pulping Department. Wet fiber is processed in the Drying Department in batches; each unit in the above table is a batch and one batch of wet fibers produces a set amount of dried paper that is passed on to the Finishing Department.

Required: 1. Determine the equivalent units for March for pulping and conversion.

2. Compute the costs per equivalent unit for March for pulping and conversion. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

3. Determine the total cost of ending work in process inventory and the total cost of units transferred to the Finishing Department in March.

4. Prepare a cost reconciliation report for the Drying Department for March

Ending inventory in the Processing Department consists of 3,000units that are one-third converted.

Beginning inventory contained 2,000 units, one-half converted,with a cost of $34,500 ($24,500 for materials and $10,000 forconversion).
