Requirement 5. What is the average cost per gallon transferred out of the Blending Department to the Packaging Department? Why would the company's managers want to know this cost?
First, identify the labels to compute the average cost per gallon transferred out, then compute the average cost per gallon transferred out of the Blending Department to the Packaging Department. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
Average cost
/ = per gallon
/ =
Why would Paint by Number's managers want to know this cost?
Managers will want to know this cost to compare it to their budgeted target costs . They may also use the cost information when setting selling prices .

4. The Assembly Department of ATG Surge Protectors began September with no work in process inventory. During the month, production that cost $37,243 (direct materials, $10,123, & conversion costs, $27,120) was started on
24,000 units. ATG completed & transferred to the Testing Department a total of 17,000 units. The ending work in process inventory was 30% complete as to direct materials & 80% complete as to conversion work.
Requirements
1. Compute the equivalent units for direct materials & conversion costs.
2. Compute the cost per equivalent unit.
3. Assign the costs to units completed & transferred out & ending work in process inventory.
4. Record the journal entry for the costs transferred out of the Assembly Department to the Testing Department.
