The following costs were incurred in August:
No, Conversion cost is the sum of direct labor cost and manufacturing overhead cost.
false, direct labor and manufacturing overhead = conversion cost
conversion cost = direct wages + factory overheads (indirect material + indirect wages)
The one cost that would be classified as part of both prime cost and conversion cost would be:
The one cost that would be classified as part of both prime cost and conversion cost
The two categories of cost comprising conversion costs are direct labor and factory overhead
Prime cost basically is the cost of direct labor and cost of direct material; whereas conversion costs is Overhead cost and direct labor cost.
Indirect cost are those costs which are not directly allocated to product units as well as not directly identifiable that's why these are part of overhead cost and overhead cost is part of conversion cost.
The conversion cost is the amount of money it takes to change a resource into a product. Going from something raw to a finished product would almost always have a cost, that would be the conversion cost. The cost at which it takes to convert from one thing to another.
Conversion
To find the direct material cost per unit, you can use the formula: Direct Material Cost per Unit = Total Manufacturing Cost per Unit - Conversion Cost per Unit. Here, the Total Manufacturing Cost includes both direct materials and conversion costs (labor and overhead). By subtracting the conversion cost from the total manufacturing cost, you isolate the direct material cost. Make sure to have accurate values for both the total manufacturing cost and conversion costs to ensure precision in your calculation.
60000 + 30000 = 90000 = 60% / 60 = 1500 = 1% x 100 = 150000 = 100% X .4 = 60000 The above solution is incorrect. By definition, the conversion cost is the sum of the direct labor cost and the overhead. Therefore, if we assume x is the conversion cost, then x = 0.4x + 60,000. The solution is conversion cost = 100,000. Hence, the direct labor cost = 40,000. Note that the knowing the direct material cost is not necessary for the computation of the labor cost. I am really bad at math so i just have to think you are right on this one
