Victory Company uses weighted-average process costing to
account for its production costs. Conversion cost is added evenly
throughout the process. Direct materials are added at the beginning of the
process. During November, the company transferred 700,000 units of product to
finished goods. At the end of November, the work in process inventory consists
of 180,000 units that are 30% complete with respect to conversion. Beginning
inventory had $420,000 of direct materials and $139,000 of conversion cost. The
direct material cost added in November is $2,220,000, and the conversion cost
added is $3,254,000. Beginning work in process consisted of 60,000 units that
were 100% complete with respect to direct materials and 80% complete with
respect to conversion. Of the units completed, 60,000 were from beginning work
in process and 640,000 units were started and completed during the period.
