Material A is introduced at the beginning of the process; material B is introduced at the end of the process; and conversion cost is introduced evenly throughout manufacturing. Equivalent-unit production costs follow.Material A: $12.50Material B: $2.00Conversion cost: $6.60The cost of the company's ending work-in-process inventory is:A. $88,620.B. $115,220.C. $123,620.D. $147,700.E. some other amount.

Answer 1

Answer:

B. $115,220

Explanation:

Material A introduced at the beginning of the process = $12.50

Conversion Cost = $6.6*60% = $3.96

Total = $12.5 + $3.96 = $16.46

WIP ending inventory = $16.64*7000 units

WIP ending inventory = $115,220
