Domingo Corporation uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system. This month, the beginning inventory in the first processing department consisted of 500 units. The costs and percentage completion of these units in beginning inventory were: Materials costs $5,600 50% complete Conversion costs $1,800 20% complete A total of 6,900 units were started and 6,200 units were transferred to the second processing department during the month. The following costs were incurred in the first processing department during the month: Materials costs $158,800 Conversion costs $120,500 The ending inventory was 85% complete with respect to materials and 75% complete with respect to conversion costs. How many units are in ending work in process inventory in the first processing department at the end of the month?
1,200 TO = BB + TI - EB 6200 = 500 + 6900 - EB EB = 500 + 6900 -6200 EB = 1200
on July 1, the Fabrication Department had 30 canoes in process that were 20% complete with respect to conversion cost. On July 31, Fabrication had 20 canoes in process that were 40% complete with respect to conversion cost. During July, the Fabrication Department completed 81 canoes and transferred them to the Waterproofing Department.
