Scribners Corporation produces fine papers in three production departments-Pulping, Drying, and Finishing. In the Pulping Department, raw materials such as wood fiber and rag cotton are mechanically and chemically treated to separate their fibers. The result is a thick slurry of fibers. In the Drying Department, the wet fibers transferred from the Pulping Department are laid down on porous webs, pressed to remove excess liquid, and dried in ovens. In the Finishing Department, the dried paper is coated, cut, and spooled onto reels. The company uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system. Data for March for the Drying Department follow:

No materials are added in the Drying Department. Pulping cost represents the costs of the wet fibers transferred in from the Pulping Department. Wet fiber is processed in the Drying Department in batches; each unit in the above table is a batch and one batch of wet fibers produces a set amount of dried paper that is passed on to the Finishing Department.

Required:

1. Determine the equivalent units for March for pulping and conversion.

2. Compute the costs per equivalent unit for March for pulping and conversion. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

3. Determine the total cost of ending work in process inventory and the total cost of units transferred to the Finishing Department in March. (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places and your final answers to the nearest whole dollar.)

4. Prepare a cost reconciliation report for the Drying Department for March. (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places and your final answers to the nearest whole dollar.)
