Using the FIFO method, calculate the following:
1. Costs per equivalent unit.
2. Cost of goods completed and transferred out.
3. Cost remaining in the ending work-in-process inventory.

Answer:

Part 1

M = $3.28

C = $5.06

Part 2

$141,780

Part 3

$26,520

Explanation:

1. Costs per equivalent unit.

Step 1 ; Equivalent units

Materials = 4,000 x 0 % + 13,000 x 100 % + 5,000 x 100 % = 18,000 units

Conversion Costs = 4,000 x 80 % + 13,000 x 100 % + 5,000 x 40 % = 18,200 units

Step 2 : Cost per Equivalent units

Materials = $59,040 / 18,000 units = $3.28

Conversion Costs = $92,092 / 18,200 units = $5.06

Total = $3.28 + $5.06 = $8.34

2. Cost of goods completed and transferred out.

Cost of goods completed and transferred out = 17,000 trusses x $8.34 = $141,780

3. Cost remaining in the ending work-in-process inventory.

Ending work-in-process inventory = $3.28 x 5,000 + $5.06 x 2,000 = $26,520

Cost of manufacturing is the total cost incurred by the manufacturing unit or the entire department for the production of goods. It is classified into three main categories: direct material cost, direct labor cost, and manufacturing overhead.

Using the FIFO method, the answers are:

1. Cost per equivalent unit:

For the material is $3.28

For the conversion is $5.06

2. Cost of goods completed and transferred out is $141,780

3. Cost remaining in the ending work-in-process inventory is $26,520

Computations:

1. Cost per equivalent unit:

Material:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\text{Cost per equivalent unit}&=\frac{\text{Total Cost}}{\text{Equivalent Units}}\\&=\frac{\$59,040}{18,000\;\text{units}}\\&=\$3.28\end{aligned}[/tex]

Conversion:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\text{Cost per equivalent unit}&=\frac{\text{Total Cost}}{\text{Equivalent Units}}\\&=\frac{\$92,092}{18,200\;\text{units}}\\&=\$5.06\end{aligned}[/tex]

[tex]\begin{aligned}\text{Total cost per equivalent unit}&=\text{Cost per unit for material}+\text{Cost per unit for conversion}\\&=\$3.28+\$5.06\\&=\$8.34\end{aligned}[/tex]

2. Cost of goods completed and transferred out:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\text{Cost of goods completed}&=\text{Units Completed}\times\text{Total Cost of equivalent units}\\&=17,000\;\text{trusses}\times\$8.34\\&=\$141,780\end{aligned}[/tex]

3. Cost of remaining ending work in process inventory:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\text{Ending Work in Process Inventory}&=[\left( \text{Costs per equivalent unit for material}\times\text{Units}\right )\\&+\left( \text{Costs per equivalent unit for conversion}\times\text{Units}\right )]\\&=\left(\$3.28\times5,000\;\text{units}\right )+\left(\$5.06\times2,000\;\text{units} \right ) \\&=\$26,520\end{aligned}[/tex]

Answer the below case problem, giving the legal issue, the governing law and the rationale in support of your conclusion.
Arthur Jensen, Inc., was a corporation engaged in the housing construction business.
Arthur Jensen set up and was the sole owner and president of the corporation. Alaska Valuation Service [AVS] conducted housing appraisals for Jensen on numerous occasions over the years. When AVS took the orders for appraisals, it was not aware that it was dealing with a corporation. It believed that it was dealing directly with Jensen [i.e., as a sole proprietor]. Jensen never specifically informed AVS of his status as the president of Arthur Jensen, Inc. When AVS was not paid for appraisal services that it had performed, AVS sued Arthur Jensen, attempting to hold him personally liable for the unpaid appraisals.
Arthur Jensen argued that he could not be personally liable because he had acted on behalf of his corporation.
1. Decide the case based on the above stated facts.
2. Assuming Arthur Jensen could be held personally liable, how could Arthur
Jensen have better protected himself? [we discussed this in class]

They enter into a verbal contract whereby B will deliver $6,000 at noon on Friday to S, and S will provide B with the deed to the property. If either party breaches the contract for the sale of the real estate lot and is sued by the other party, the defendant may raise statute of frauds as a defense, saying that there is nothing in writing or signed by the defendant.
