Chapter 20, Problem 20.39P

Backflush, two trigger points, completion of production and sale (continuation of 20-37). Assume the same facts for Acton Corporation as in Problem 20-37, except that now assume Acton uses a JIT production system and backflush costing with two trigger points for making entries in the accounting system:

  • Completion of good finished units of product
  • Sale of finished goods
