O'Farrell Manufacturing Inc

O'Farrell Manufacturing Inc. uses a weighted-average process-costing system and has one production department. All materials are introduced at the start of manufacturing; in contrast, conversion costs are incurred uniformly throughout production. The company had respective work-in-process inventories on July 1 and July 31 of 80,000 units and 90,000 units, the latter of which was 50% complete. The production supervisor noted that O'Farrell completed 120,000 units during the month.
Costs in the July 1 work-in-process inventory were subdivided as follows: materials, $50,000; conversion, $30,000. During July, O'Farrell charged production with $460,000 of material and $810,000 of conversion, resulting in a material cost per equivalent unit of $2.
