In estimating the total value of supplies on repair trucks, Baker Company draws random samples from two equal-sized strata of trucks. The mean value of the inventory stored on the larger trucks (stratum 1) was computed at $1,500, with a standard deviation of $250. On the smaller trucks (stratum 2), the mean value of inventory was computed as $500, with a standard deviation of $45. If Baker had drawn an unstratified sample from the entire population of trucks, the expected mean value of inventory per truck would be $1,000, and the expected standard deviation would be .

The plastic flowerpots company has two manufacturing departments, molding and packaging. at the beginning of the month, the molding department has 2,100 units in inventory, 70% complete as to materials. during the month, the molding department started 18,500 units. at the end of the month, the molding department had 3,150 units in ending inventory, 80% complete as to materials. units completed in the molding department are transferred into the packaging department. cost information for the molding department for the month follows: beginning work in process inventory (direct materials) $ 1,300 direct materials added during the month 28,900 using the weighted-average method, compute the molding department's (a) equivalent units of production for materials and (b) cost per equivalent unit of production for materials for the month. (round "cost per equivalent unit of production" to 2 decimal places.)
