Mortensen Industries, which uses a process-costing system, adds material at the beginning of production and incurs conversion cost evenly throughout manufacturing. The following selected information was taken from the company's accounting records: Total equivalent units of materials: 5,000 Total equivalent units of conversion: 4,400 Units started and completed during the period: 3,500 On the basis of this information, the ending work-in-process inventory's stage of completion is: Multiple Choice 60%. 40%. 80%. 70%. some other percentage not listed.

Answer: 60%

Explanation:

Find the ending work in process.

Materials are complete at inception so the Equivalent units of Materials represent the total units.

Ending WIP will therefore be:

= Materials EUP - Units started and completed

= 5,000 - 3,500

= 1,500 units

Stage of completion is based on Conversion.

Conversion EUP = Total started and completed + (x% * Closing WIP)

4,400 = 3,500 + (x% * 1,500)

4,400 = 3,500 + 15x

15x = 4,400 - 3,500

15x = 900

x = 900/15

x = 60%

Conversion is 60% complete so this is the stage of completion.

During March, the production department of a process operations system completed and transferred to finished goods 21,000 units that were in process at the beginning of March and 210,000 units that were started and completed in March. March's beginning inventory units were 100% complete with respect to materials and 65% complete with respect to conversion. At the end of March, 40,000 additional units were in process in the production department and were 100% complete with respect to materials and 40% complete with respect to conversion. Compute the number of physical units transferred to finished goods.

Suppose that the U.S. government decides to charge wine producers a tax. Before the tax, 30,000 bottles of wine were sold every week at a price of $6 per bottle. After the tax, 25,000 bottles of wine are sold every week; consumers pay $8 per bottle, and producers receive $5 per bottle (after paying the tax). The amount of the tax on a bottle of wine is $ per bottle. Of this amount, the burden that falls on consumers is $ per bottle, and the burden that falls on producers is $ per bottle. True or False: The effect of the tax on the quantity sold would have been smaller if the tax had been levied on consumers. True False
