The Dortmund Company uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system. The company's ending work in process inventory consists of 18,500 units. The ending work in process inventory is 100% complete with respect to materials and 60% complete with respect to labor and overhead. If the costs per equivalent unit for the period are $5.20 for materials and $4.10 for labor and overhead, what would be the balance of the ending work in process inventory account? (Do not round cost per equivalent unit) A. $142,265 B. $96,200 C. $141,710 D. $106,745

The following data appeared in the accounting records of Craig Manufacturing Inc., which uses the weighted average cost method: Case 1All materials are added at the beginning of the process, and labor and factory overhead are added evenly throughout the process.

Labor and factory overhead are applied evenly during the process. Make the following computations for each case: a. Unit cost of materials, labor, and factory overhead for the month b. Cost of the units finished and transferred during the month c. Cost of the units in process at the end of the month
