8. Precision Manufacturing Inc. has two service departments (Maintenance and Human Resources) and two
operating production departments (Machining and Assembly). The company believes in accurately
reflecting the full cost of its production operations. The direct costs for each department and the usage of
services are provided below:
Department Direct Department Proportion of Services Proportion of Services
Costs Provided by Maintenance Provided by HR
Service Departments
Maintenance $120,000 — 20%
Human Resources (HR) $80,000 10% —
Operating Departments
Machining $250,000 60% 50%
Assembly $300,000 30% 30%
Total $750,000 100% 100%
Note:
The Maintenance Department costs are allocated based on the proportion of maintenance hours used.
The Human Resources Department costs are allocated based on the proportion of employees in each
department.
Required:
Calculate the total costs allocated to the Machining Department and the Assembly Department from the
service departments (Maintenance and HR) using the following three methods: (4 points)
1. Direct Method
2. Step-Down (or Sequential) Method (Allocate the costs of the Maintenance Department first, as it
provides a greater percentage of its total services to other service departments (10% to HR) compared to
HR's service back to Maintenance (20% of HR's total? No, HR provides 20% to Maintenance). Actually, we
allocate the one with the highest percentage of service to other service depts first. Maintenance gives 10%
to HR, HR gives 20% to Maintenance. HR gives a higher % to Maintenance, so we allocate HR first.)
o Correction: The general rule is to start with the department that serves the most other service departments.
Let's re-calc: Maintenance services: 10% to HR. HR services: 20% to Maintenance. Therefore, HR provides
a higher proportion of its service to another service department. We should allocate HR first.
3. Reciprocal Method (Use the algebraic / simultaneous equation approach)
9. TechCase Inc. manufactures protective phone cases in its Moulding Department. All direct materials are
added at the beginning of the manufacturing process. Conversion costs (direct labor and manufacturing
overhead) are incurred uniformly throughout the process. The company uses the FIFO (First-In, First-Out)
method of process costing to value its inventory and calculate costs. You have been provided with the
following data for the month of November:
Item Units Cost Details
Beginning Work-in- 8,000 units Degree of Completion: 100% complete for materials;
Process (Nov 1) 40% complete for conversion.
Accumulated Costs:
• Direct Materials: $12,000 Conversion Costs: $9,200
Units Started in November 22,000 units
Units Completed and 24,000 units
Transferred Out
Ending Work-in-Process 6,000 units Degree of Completion: 100% complete for materials;
(Nov 30) 50% complete for conversion.
Costs Added in November • Direct Materials: $44,000 , Conversion Costs:
$59,800
Required:
Prepare a production cost report for the Moulding Department for the month of November using the FIFO
method. Your report should include the following five steps (5 points)
1. Physical Flow of Units - Reconcile the units to determine the number of units started and completed during
the period.
2. Equivalent Units of Production (EUP) - Calculate the equivalent units for direct materials and
conversion costs, focusing only on the work done in the current period (November).
3. Cost per Equivalent Unit - Calculate the cost per equivalent unit for materials and conversion based solely
on the costs added during November.
4. Cost Assignment - Assign total costs to:
o a) Units completed and transferred out (separately showing the cost of beginning WIP completed and the
cost of units started and completed).
o b) Units remaining in ending work-in-process inventory.
5. Cost Reconciliation: Verify that the total costs to account for equal the total costs accounted for.
