Answer:

A. $19,100

Explanation:

First, Find the Equivalent Units of Production as Follows :

1. Raw Materials Equivalent Units of Production

Note : Raw Materials are placed at the Beginning of Production

To Finish Beginning Work in Progress                                      0

Started and Completed (12,000 - 3,600)                               8,400

Ending Work In Process (2,000 × 5/5)                                   2,000

Total Equivalent Units of Production for Raw Materials      10,400

2. Conversion Costs Equivalent Units of Production

Note : Conversion Costs are always incurred evenly during Production

To Finish Beginning Work in Progress (3,600 × 2/3)            2,400

Started and Completed (12,000 - 3,600)                               8,400

Ending Work In Process (2,000 × 1/5)                                       400

Total Equivalent Units of Production for Conversion Cost  11,200

Next, determine the cost per equivalent unit of raw materials and conversion costs.

Raw Materials

Cost per equivalent unit = Total Current year  Cost ÷Total Equivalent Units

                                        = $83,200 ÷ 10,400

                                        = $8.00

Conversion Cost

Cost per equivalent unit = Total Current year  Cost ÷Total Equivalent Units

                                        = ($62,000 + $24,800) ÷  11,200

                                        = $7.75

Finally, determine the cost of the departmental work in process inventory using the costs per equivalent units and the respective end in process inventory (equivalent units)

Raw Materials ($8.00 × 2,000)     $16,000

Conversion Costs ($7.75 × 400)     $3,100

Total Cost                                       $19,100

The total cost of the departmental work in process inventory at the end of the period is: A. $19,100.

First step is to calculate the equivalent units of production  for raw materials

Equivalent Units of Production= Beginning Work in Progress +Units Started and Completed +Ending Work In Process

Equivalent Units of Production=0+ (12,000 - 3,600)+(2,000 × 5/5)

Equivalent Units of Production=0+8,400+2,000  

Equivalent Units of Production=10,400

Second step is to calculate the equivalent units of production for conversion cost  

Conversion costs=Finish beginning Work in Progress+ Units Started and Completed+Ending Work In Process

Equivalent Units of Production= (3,600×2/3)+ (12,000 -3,600)+(2,000×1/5)

Equivalent Units of Production=2,400+8,400+400

Equivalent Units of Production=11,200

Third step is to calculate the cost per equivalent unit for raw materials and conversion costs.

Raw Materials  cost per equivalent units = $83,200/ 10,400

Raw Materials  cost per equivalent units= $8.00

Conversion cost  per equivalent units = ($62,000 + $24,800)/ 11,200

Conversion cost  per equivalent units =$86,800/11,200

Conversion cost  per equivalent units =$7.75

Fourth step is to calculate the total cost

Total cost=  ($8.00 × 2,000) +($7.75 × 400)  

Total cost= $16,000+$3,100

Total cost=$19,100

Inconclusion the total cost of the departmental work in process inventory at the end of the period is: A. $19,100.
