during the current month. There were 15,000 units in the department's beginning
work in process inventory, which were two-thirds complete with respect to conversion
costs. During the current month, 105,000 units were started and 100,000 were
completed and transferred out of the department.

The beginning work in process inventory in the Milling Department consisted of
10,000 units, 50% complete with respect to materials cost and 60% complete with
respect to conversion costs. The total cost of the beginning inventory was $60,000.

equivalent unit cost was computed to be $4.00 for materials and $7.40 for
conversion costs under the weighted-average method. Given this information, the
total cost of the units completed and transferred out of this department during the
month was:
Answer
$540,000.

work in process inventory were 50% complete with respect to materials and 30%
complete with respect to labour and overhead. If the costs per equivalent unit for the
current period were $5.50 for materials and $8.50 for labour and overhead, the total
cost assigned to the ending work in process inventory was:
Answer
$190,800.
$151,200.
$160,200.
$252,000.
The computation of equivalent units under the FIFO method:

Answer
treats units in the ending work in process stock as if they were started
and completed during the current period.
ignores units in the beginning and ending work in process inventories.
treats units in the beginning work in process stock as if they represent
a separate batch of goods distinct from goods started and completed
during the current period.
treats units in the beginning work in process stock as if they were
started and completed during the current period.
Which of the following would not appear as a debit in the Work in Process account of
