Part 1: Computing Unit Cost for Department and For Completed Units with Beginning Inventory
Central Manufacturing has two production departments. Finishing had 2,000 units in process at the beginning of the period, three-fifths complete. During the period, 14,000 units were received from assembly, 13,000 units were transferred to the finished goods storeroom, and 3,000 units were in process at the end of the period, two-thirds complete. The cost of the beginning work in process was:
