Required information [The following information applies to the questions displayed below] Tamar Co. manufactures a single product in two departments. All direct materials are added at the beginning of the Forming process. Conversion costs are added evenly throughout the process. During May, the Forming department started 24,750 units and transferred 25,700 units of product to the Assembly department. Its 3,700 units of beginning work in process consisted of $20,500 of direct materials and $253,440 of conversion costs. It has 2,750 units (100% complete with respect to direct materials and 80% complete with respect to conversion) in process at month-end. During the month, $520,050 of direct materials costs and $2,424,960 of conversion costs were charged to the Forming department. 2. Prepare the journal entry dated May 31 to transfer the cost of units to Assembly. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answers to the nearest whole dollar.) View transaction st

Radford Inc. manufactures a sugar product by a continuous process, involving three production departmentsRefining, Sifting, and Packing. Assume that records indicate that direct materials, direct labor, and applied factory overhead for the first department, Refining, were 1,250,000, 660,000, and 975,000, respectively. Also, work in process in the Refining Department at the beginning of the period totaled 328,000, and work in process at the end of the period totaled 295,000. Journalize the entries to record (a) the flow of costs into the Refining Department during the period for (1) direct materials, (2) direct labor, and (3) factory overhead, and (b) the transfer of production costs to the second department, Sifting.
The Converting Department of Tender Soft Tissue Company uses the weighted average method and had 1,900 units in work in process that were 60% complete at the beginning of the period. During the period, 15,800 units were completed and transferred to the Packing Department. There were 1,200 units in process that were 30% complete at the end of the period. a. Determine the number of whole units to be accounted for and to be assigned costs for the period. b. Determine the number of equivalent units of production for the period. Assume that direct materials are placed in process during production.
Fordman Company has a product that passes through two processes: Grinding and Polishing. During December, the Grinding Department transferred 20,000 units to the Polishing Department. The cost of the units transferred into the second department was 40,000. Direct materials are added uniformly in the second process. Units are measured the same way in both departments. The second department (Polishing) had the following physical flow schedule for December: Costs in beginning work in process for the Polishing Department were direct materials, 5,000; conversion costs, 6,000; and transferred in, 8,000. Costs added during the month: direct materials, 32,000; conversion costs, 50,000; and transferred in, 40,000. Required: 1. Assuming the use of the weighted average method, prepare a schedule of equivalent units. 2. Compute the unit cost for the month.
During March, the following costs were charged to the manufacturing department: $22,500 for materials; $45,625 for labor; and $50,000 for manufacturing overhead.

The standard cost summary for the most popular product of Phenom Products Co. is shown as follows, together with production and cost data for the period. One gallon each of liquid lead and varnish are added at the start of processing. The balance of the materials is added when the process is two-thirds complete. Labor and overhead are added evenly throughout the process. There were no units in process at the beginning of the month. Required: Calculate equivalent production for materials, labor, and overhead. (Be sure to refer to the standard cost summary to help determine the percentage of materials in ending work in process.) Calculate materials and labor variances and indicate whether they are favorable or unfavorable, using the diagram format shown in Figure 8-4. Determine the cost of materials and labor in the work in process account at the end of the month.
