*Prepare its process cost summary using the weighted-average method.

Explanation:

We solve this prblem in three steps    

Step#1    

In this step we will prepare the summary of units produces and trasffered and units in closing stock    

Opening units  8000  

Started                133000  

                           141000  

Transffered          122000  

Closing                      19000  

Step#2

We will prepare production and cost table, total cost will be divided by the total units produced to identify the cost per unit  incurred on material, labor and overheads.

Cost      opening   Current    Total      Complete  Closing  Equiv.      Cost

Head       Cost        Cost        Cost          units          WIP      Units     Per unit

Material  38,600  751,000   789,600   122,000    19,000  141,000  5.6000  

Labor     1,480      138,820    140,300   122,000    13,300 135,300  1.0370  

O.H       2,960      267,640   270,600  122,000    13,300  135,300  2.0000  

Step-3      

In this process we will calculate the cost incurred during the period.      

Complete  122,000   8.64   1,053,708  

Closing Wip    

Material    19,000   5.60            106,400  

Labor              13,300   1.04            13,792  

Overheads  13,300   2.00            26,600  

                                            146,792  

Total Cost                             1,200,500
