QUESTION THREE
  The Queens Temptations Company has two processing departments, Cooking and Packaging. Ingredients are placed into production at the beginning of the process in Cooking, where they are formed into various shapes. When finished, they are transferred into Packaging, where the candy is placed into heart and tuxedo boxes and covered with foil. All material added in Packaging is considered as one material for convenience. Since the boxes contain a variety of candies, they are considered partially complete until filled with the appropriate assortment. The following information relates to the two departments for February 20X7:
Cooking Department:


Beginning WIP (30% complete as to conversion)
4,500
units
Units started this period
15,000

Yutong Motor Company rebuilds automobile engines that have been damaged or are in need of extensive repair. The rebuilt engine has a 100,000-mile warranty and is purchased by auto shops, large motor pools in companies and governmental units, and some individual auto owners. The Dayton plant at Hawthorne specializes in the Ford V6 engine. The current month began with a WIP inventory of 200 engines, which were 50 percent complete as to materials and 50 percent complete as to conversion costs. The materials costs in the beginning WIP inventory was Tshs.54, 860,000 while the conversion costs was Tshs.63, 000,000. 600 engines were completed and shipped out during the month, and total materials cost of Tshs.549,940,000 and conversion cost of Tshs.640,000,000 were incurred during the month. The ending WIP inventory was 100 engines 20 percent complete as to materials and 40 percent complete as to conversion cost. Data for analysis:
