Old Country Links, Incorporated, produces sausages in three production departments$-$Mixing, Casing and Curing, and Packaging. In

the Mixing Department, meats are prepared, ground and mixed with spices. The spiced meat mixture is transferred to the Casing and

Curing Department, where the mixture is force$-$fed into casings and hung and cured in climate$-$controlled smoking chambers. In the

Packaging Department, the cured sausages are sorted, packed, and labeled. The company uses the weighted$-$average method of

process costing. Data for September for the Casing and Curing Department follow:

Mixing cost represents the costs of the spiced meat mixture transferred in from the Mixing Department. The spiced meat mixture is

processed in the Casing and Curing Department in batches; each unit in the above table is a batch and one batch of spiced meat

mixture produces a set amount of sausages that are passed on to the Packaging Department. During September, $119$ batches $($i$.$e$.,$

units$)$ were completed and transferred to the Packaging Department.

$3.$ Compute the casing and curing departments cost of ending work in process inventory for mixing, materials, conversion,and in total

$4.$ Compute the casing and curing departments costs of units transferred out to the packaging department for mixing, materials, conversion, and in total

$5.$ Prepare a cost reconciliation report for the casing and curing department

I already have the solution for equivalent units Of production. mixing$=129\mathrm{.}0$ materials$=121\mathrm{.}0$ conversion$=120\mathrm{.}0$

i also have the solution for cost per equivalent unit. Mixing$=2,010$ materials$=211$ conversion$=1,275$
