Cost of Goods Manufactured; Prime and Conversion Costs.  Wyoming Company's purchases of materials during June totaled $25,000, and the cost of goods sold for June was $130,000.  Factory overhead was 200% of direct labor cost.  Other information pertaining to Wyoming Company's inventories and production for June is as follows:

Inventories Beginning Ending
Finished goods $42,500 $39,000
Work in process 15,500 17,000
Materials 5,000 8,500

Required:

(1) Prepare a schedule of cost of goods manufactured.
(2) Compute the prime cost charged to Work in Process.
(3) Compute the conversion cost charged to Work in Process. (AICPA adapted)


SOLUTION

(1) Wyoming Company
Schedule of Cost of Goods Manufactured
For Month Ended June 30, 19--

Work in process, June 1 $ 15,500
Production costs:
Direct materials 21,500 **
Direct labor 35,500
Factory overhead 71,000 128,000
$ 143,500
Less work in process, June 30 17,000
Cost of goods manufactured $ 126,500 *

Let x = direct labor
3x = $106,500
x = $35,500 direct labor
2x = $71,000 factory overhead

(2) Prime cost:
Direct materials [from (1)] $ 21,500
Direct labor [from (1)]   35,500
$   57,000
(3) Conversion cost:
Direct labor [from (1)] $ 35,500
Factory overhead [from (1)] 71,000
$ 106,500 ***

* Cost of goods sold ($130,000) + ending finished goods inventory ($39,000) - beginning finished goods inventory ($42,500) = $126,500.

** Purchases of materials during June ($25,000) + beginning materials inventory ($5,000) - ending materials inventory ($8,500) = $21,500.

*** Production costs for June ($128,000) - direct materials ($21,500) = direct labor and factory overhead ($106,500).
