Spirit Beverages produces a sport drink. During October, the
Blending Department had the following manufacturing costs:

Direct materials $16,000


Conversion costs 5,600
Total costs to be assigned $21,600

Spirit started and completed 8,000 four-bottle packages during


October. Spirit had no beginning work in process inventory.
Compute the manufacturing unit costs for October.

Direct materials $16,000 ÷ 8,000 units = $ 2.00


Conversion costs 5,600 ÷ 8,000 units = $ 0.70
Mfg. cost per completed unit $21,600 ÷ 8,000 units = $ 2.70

When there is Beginning WIP, the


determination of equivalent units
becomes somewhat more complicated.

Primary question to be answered:


Which units were completed first
during the period?
(How you answer this question will
affect the Total EU for the period.)

the current department.
 These transferred-in costs are treated exactly like a

Accounting for Spoilage Costs


Spoilage represents the amount of resources that go
into the process, but DO NOT result in finished product.
Managers face key problems related to spoilage:
1. Identifying whether it exists.
2. Determining whether it can be eliminated.
3. Deciding whether eliminating it is worthwhile.
4. Determining the cost of spoilage.
The 5-step approach discussed earlier can
be modified by including spoilage

Accounting for Spoilage Costs

Normal spoilage occurs as a part of the regular operations


of an efficient process.

Abnormal spoilage is the result of unusual operating problems.


Abnormal spoilage is in addition to normal spoilage,
and is recorded as a loss of the period.

We will illustrate the spoilage using the December data for


Spirit Beverages, but without the transferred-in costs.
