The cost per equivalent unit for conversion costs for the first department for the month is closest to:

Answer:

$46.04

Explanation:

It is important to note that Gunes Corporation uses the weighted-average method. This means we are only interested in the Equivalent units completed and transferred and units in working process.

Total Conversion Cost

Consider the cost in opening work in process and cost during the year.

Total Conversion Cost = $12,300 + $359,000 = $371,300

Equivalent Units

Consider work completed in units completed and transferred and units in working process.

Equivalent Units = 7,400 x 100% + 1,900 x 35 % = 8,065 units

The units in working process have been calculated as :

Units in working process = 800 + 8500 - 7,400 = 1,900

Cost per Equivalent Units

Cost per Equivalent Unit = Total Cost ÷ Total Equivalent Units

                                           = $371,300 ÷ 8,065 units

                                           = $46.04

The cost per equivalent unit for conversion costs for the first department for the month is closest to $46.04

Answer:

$46.16

Explanation:

It is important to note that Gunes Corporation uses the weighted-average method. This means we are only interested in the Equivalent units completed and transferred and units in working process.

Total Conversion Cost

Consider the cost in opening work in process and cost during the year.

Total Conversion Cost = $12,800 + $359,500 = $372,300

Equivalent Units

Consider work completed in units completed and transferred and units in working process.

Equivalent Units = 7,400 x 100% + 1,900 x 35 % = 8,065 units

The units in working process have been calculated as :

Units in working process = 800 + 8500 - 7,400 = 1,900

Cost per Equivalent Units

Cost per Equivalent Unit = Total Cost ÷ Total Equivalent Units

                                          = $372,300 ÷ 8,065 units

                                          = $46.16

Assume Dell's yearly inventory cost is 30 percent to account for the cost of capital for financing the inventory, the warehouse space, and the cost of obsolescence. In other words, Dell incurs a cost of $30 for a $100 component that is in the company's inventory for one entire year. In 2001, Dell's 10-k reports showed that the company had $280 million in inventory and COGS of $23,100 million. To compute the percentage of cost of the inventory, determine the following:
a. Find the value of the inventory.
b. Find the cost of goods sold.
c. Compute inventory turns. (Round the answer to the nearest whole number.)
d. What percentage of cost of a Dell computer reflects inventory costs? (Round the answer to 3 decimal places.)
