Answer:
Option D , $15.12
Explanation:
Weighted-average method
:
Materials
Units transferred to the next department = 10,300
Ending work in process:
Materials: 1,200 units × 90% = 1080
Equivalent units of production =10,300+1080= 11,380
Materials
Cost of beginning work in process inventory= $2,700
Costs added during the period = $173,900
Total cost (a) =$173,900+$2,700 = $176,600
Equivalent units of production (b)= 11,380
Cost per equivalent unit (a) ÷ (b) = $15.51
The cost per equivalent unit for materials for the month in the first processing department is closest to $15.51
