Colby Company has a process costing system in which the weighted-average method is used. The company adds all materials at the b
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

$7,650

Explanation:

Ending work in progress = Beginning Work in progress + Units started - Units completed and transferred

= $22,000 + $90,000 - $97,000

= $15,000

Equivalent units = Units completed and transferred + Ending work in progress

= $97,000 + $15,000

= $112,000

Total cost = Material cost (Beginning) + Material cost during the month

= $11,000 + $46,100

= $57,100

Cost per equivalent unit = $57,100 ÷ $112,000

= $0.51

Materials cost of the work in process inventory at March 31 = Ending work in progress × Cost per equivalent unit

= $15,000 × $0.51

= $7,650

GuDViN [60]

Net income for each alternative = Revenues – Costs

Since the net income is positive, B is better than A.
