PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

The ending balance of work-in-process inventory is $64,000

Explanation:

Opening Raw Material = $34,000

Opening WIP Inventory = $70,000

Opening Finished Goods Inventory = $55,000

Raw material purchased = $148,000

Raw materials requisitioned = $88,000

Closing Raw Material = Opening + Purchase - Requisitioned

= $34,000 + $148,000 - $88,000 = $94,000

Closing Finished Goods Inventory = Opening + Cost of goods produced - Cost of goods sold

= $55,000 + $299,000 - $250,000 = $104,000

Expense total incurred on goods entered for production = Material requisitioned + Labor cost incurred + Factory overhead

= $88,000 + $127,000 + $148,000 = $363,000

Out of which cost of completed goods = $299,000

Thus remaining is work in process = $363,000 - $299,000 = $64,000

That is Closing WIP Inventory = $64,000

Note: It is obvious that the expense of labor and overheads incurred in this period includes expense incurred to convert opening WIP in to finished goods and the balance is closing WIP.

The ending balance of work-in-process inventory is $64,000
