Dr Finished goods inventory 2,984,500

    Cr Work in process 2,984,500

Explanation:

beginning WIP 5,400 units

materials $17,300

conversion $329,940

ending WIP 3,600 units

materials 100% complete

conversion 80% complete (2,880 EU)

units completed and transferred out 23,500

units started and completed 18,100

costs added during the period

materials $497,600

conversion $2,519,100

total costs

materials $514,900

conversion $2,849,040

total EU

materials 18,100 + 5,400 + 3,600 = 27,100

conversion 18,100 + 5,400 + 2,880 = 26,380

cost per EU

materials $514,900 / 27,100 = $19

conversion $2,849,040 / 26,380 = $108

total = $127

costs assigned to finished units = $127 x 23,500 = $2,984,500
