In August 2020, 1 000 units of materials were added to the cutting process. Due to limitations of the cutting machine, 10% of materials added to the cutting process were expected to become loss with a scrap value of N$10 per unit. It is the company's cost accounting policy to deduct the scrap value of normal losses from the cost of materials in the current process. By end of August, 940 units of finished cutting process were transferred out to the next process: assembly. 100 units remained in closing WIP and their degrees of completion of individual inputs were:
Materials 100%
Labour 60%
Overheads 40%
Costs incurred in August were:
Materials N$20 700
Labour N$ 5 074
