Preparing a production cost report, second department with beginning W1P; decision making
Lake Bound uses three processes to manufacture lifts for personal watercrafts: forming a lift’s parts from galvanized steel, assembling the lift, and testing the completed lift. The lifts are transferred to finished goods before shipment to materials across the country.
Lake Bound’s Testing Department requires no direct materials. Conversion costs are incurred evenly throughout the testing process. Other information follows for October 2016:
The cost transferred into Finished Goods Inventory is the cost of the lifts transferred
out of the Testing Department. Lake Bound uses weighted-average

- how can i resolve this problem? Arona Corporation manufactures canoes in two departments, Fabrication and Waterproofing. In the Fabrication Department, fiberglass panels are attached to a canoe- shaped aluminum frame. The canoes are then transferred to the Waterproofing department to be coated with sealant. Arona uses a weighted-average process cost system to collect costs in both departments. All materials in the Fabrication Department are added at the beginning of the production process. On July 1, the Fabrication Department had 30 canoes in process that were 20% complete with respect to conversion cost. On July 31, Fabrication had 20 canoes in process that were 40% complete with respect to conversion cost. During July, the Fabrication Department completed 90 canoes and transferred them to the Waterproofing Department.
