Randall Inc. manufactures pocket protectors and uses the FIFO method of process costing. Direct materials are added at the beginning of the production process. Conversion costs are incurred evenly throughout production. Inspection takes place at the end of the production process. After inspection, some units are spoiled due to defects.
