- Chassen Company, a cracker and cookie manufacturer, has the following unit costs for the month of June: A total of 100,000 units were manufactured during June, of which 10,000 remain in ending inventory. Chassen uses the first-in, first-out (FIFO) inventory method, and the 10,000 units are the only finished goods inventory at June 30. Under the absorption costing concept, the value of Chassens June 30 finished goods inventory would be: a. 50,000. b. 70,000. c. 85,000. d. 145,000.arrow_forwardPasay Manufacturing Company manufactures fire extinguishers and uses FIFO method for process and inventory costing. In valuing the finished goods inventory, the costs of units completed from the WIP beginning are kept separate from the costs of those started and completed during the period. The total manufacturing costs for the month of June were P924,000. There were 5,500 units that were completed during the month. All costs were uniformly applied to production. At the beginning of the period, there were 2,500 units in process that were 20% incomplete with a total cost of P448,000 and 1200 of completed fire extinguishers with a total cost of P268,800.
