Pacific Ink had beginning work-in-process inventory of $1,069,960 on October 1. Of this amount, $459,200 was the cost of direct materials and $610,760 was the cost of conversion. The 63,000 units in the beginning inventory were 30 percent complete with respect to both direct materials and conversion costs. During October, 132,000 units were transferred out and 45,000 remained in ending inventory. The units in ending inventory were 80 percent complete with respect to direct materials and 40 percent complete with respect to conversion costs. Costs incurred during the period amounted to $3,578,400 for direct materials and $4,182,090 for conversion. Compute the costs of goods transferred out and the ending inventory using the weighted-average method. (Round intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places.)
