Instructions:
Prepare a production cost report for the month of April, making sure to show equivalent
units of production for materials and conversion costs, unit costs of production for materials
and conversion costs, and the assignment of costs to units transferred out and in process at
the end of April.
THIS ASSIGNMENT MUST BE COMPLETED IN EXCEL. You should develop an efficient and
customizable production cost report, using formulas whenever possible instead of keyed in
values. No numeric values except the ones shown above should need to be keyed in.
