18-37 Weighted-average method, packaging department (continuation of 18-35). In the Seafood
Company's packaging department, conversion costs are added evenly during the process, and direct ma-
terials are added at the end of the process. Spoiled units are detected upon inspection at the end of the
process and are disposed of at zero net disposal value. All completed work is transferred to the next de-
partment. The transferred-in costs for May equal the total cost of good units completed and transferred out
in May from the cleaning department, which were calculated in Problem 18-35 using the weighted-average
method of process costing. Summary data for May follow.
