All Things Brass produces brass handles for the furniture industry in a four-stage process -Mixing, Moulding, Polishing and Packaging. Costs incurred in the Polishing Department during January are summarized as follows: WIP- POLISHING PROCESS A/C JANUARY 1 BALANCE Transfer from Moulding 20,000 Direct Materials Added Direct labour 1,310,000 391,000 638,000 307 A00 Manufacturing overhead Normal losses are estimated to be 2%9% of input during the period. Inspection takes place during the processing operation, at which point damaged handles are separated from good handles and sold as scrap to local furniture manufacturers at S85 each. At inspection, 2,000 handles were rejected as scrap. These units had reached the following degree of completion: Transfer from Moulding 100% Direct material added 40% Conversion costs 20% Work-in-progress at the end of January was 4,000 handles and had reached the following degree of completion: Transfer from Moulding 100% Direct material added s0% Conversion costs 509% Direct materials added and conversion costs are incurred uniformly throughout the process.
