Andrews corporation uses the weighted-average method of process costing. the following information is available for february in its polishing department: equivalent units of production—direct materials 110,000 eup equivalent units of production—conversion 95,000 eup costs in beginning work in process—direct materials $ 49,000 costs in beginning work in process—conversion $ 36,000 costs incurred in february—direct materials $ 414,000 costs incurred in february—conversion 520,000 the cost per equivalent unit of production for conversion is: $9.26 $4.21 $5.85 $5.05 $4.97

The cost for conversion as per equivalent unit of production is $5.85

Explanation:

Formula for cost of conversion per equivalent unit of production =

Total cost / Equivalent units of production

Equivalent cost of production for conversion is given = 95,000 UNITS

CALCULATING TOTAL COST =

Cost of beginning work in progress + Cost incurred in February ( conversion )

= $36,000 + $ 520,000

= $556,000

Putting the values of total cost and equivalent units of conversion in formula-

= $ 556,000 / 95,000

= $5.85

ans.

heterothermic organisms include those organisms that can switch between homeothermic (having body temperature higher than environment) and poikilothermic (having variation in internal body temperature) strategies.

some migratory birds show heterothermy as they decrease their metabolic rate during cold nights to keep their body temperature low. drop in metabolic rate allows increase in production efficiency of birds that reduces the internal body temperature to make it equal to external cold temperature during cold nights.

thus, the correct answer is 'birds allow their temperature drop in order to increase their production efficiency.'
