Uncle Tom’s factory in Tasmania is responsible for manufacturing the Direct Calorie Bar. The factory employs a process costing system. Due to the management accountant still suffering from food poisoning, you have been asked to prepare the end of period product costing. The process for manufacturing the ‘Direct Calorie Bar’ involves mixing all the ingredients. The ingredients are then poured into moulds and injected with extra pure sugar and snap-frozen. It is assumed for process costing purposes that all raw material ingredients are added at the commencement of the process. Packaging occurs when the manufacturing process is 70% complete. For the purpose of accounting, the conversion costs of manufacturing are assumed to occur evenly across the whole of the production cycle.
