Units | Costs | |||||
Work in process, December 31 (materials 100% complete; conversion 60% complete) | 44,000 | $ | 79,000 | |||
Finished goods, December 31 | 49,000 | $ | 132,500 | |||
There were no finished goods inventories at the beginning of the year. The company uses the weighted-average method of process costing. There is only one processing department.
A review of the company’s inventory and cost records shows the following:
