3. Cost remaining in the ending work-in-process inventory.

Part 1

M = $3.28

C = $5.06

Part 2

$141,780

Part 3

$26,520

Explanation:

1. Costs per equivalent unit.

Step 1 ; Equivalent units

Materials = 4,000 x 0 % + 13,000 x 100 % + 5,000 x 100 % = 18,000 units

Conversion Costs = 4,000 x 80 % + 13,000 x 100 % + 5,000 x 40 % = 18,200 units

Step 2 : Cost per Equivalent units

Materials = $59,040 / 18,000 units = $3.28

Conversion Costs = $92,092 / 18,200 units = $5.06

Total = $3.28 + $5.06 = $8.34

2. Cost of goods completed and transferred out.

Cost of goods completed and transferred out = 17,000 trusses x $8.34 = $141,780

3. Cost remaining in the ending work-in-process inventory.

Ending work-in-process inventory = $3.28 x 5,000 + $5.06 x 2,000 = $26,520

cognitive overload: having a lot on your mind impairs decision-making and tends to result in the simplest, but not necessarily best, option being selected.

empathy gaps: overlooking how you might feel in a different situation can result in unnecessary purchases, such as overbuying when shopping for food on an empty stomach.

optimism and overconfidence: wearing rose-tinted glasses and having unrealistic expectations about the future can affect money management and leave you unprepared for a change in circumstance.

instant gratification: seeking instant gratification drives impulsive spending and can undermine long-term planning and savings.

harmful habits: automatic or mindless behaviour can amplify a poor financial decision as it becomes a recurring event.

social norms: we are heavily influenced by the actions of others; while this can be in certain circumstances, it also contributes to the pressure to keep up with the joneses through conspicuous consumption.
