Mercier Manufacturing produces a plastic part in three sequential departments: Extruding, Fabricating, and Packaging. Mercier uses the weighted-average process costing method to account for costs of production in all three departments. The following information was obtained for the Fabricating Department for the month of September. Work in process on September 1 had 15,000 units made up of the following: Prior department costs transferred in from the Extruding Department Costs added by the Fabricating Department Direct materials Direct labor Manufacturing overhead Work in process, September 1 Amount Degree of Completion $ 78,750 100% $ 39,000 90% 9,900 70% 9,120 35% $ 58,020 $ 136,770 During September, 75,000 units were transferred in from the Extruding Department at a cost of $416,250.
