This month, the beginning inventory in the first processing department consisted of 700
units. The costs and percentage completion of these units in beginning inventory were:
A total of 9,200 units were started and 8,300 units were transferred to the second
processing department during the month. The following costs were incurred in the first
processing department during the month:
The ending inventory was 75% complete with respect to materials and 15% complete
with respect to conversion costs.
Note: Your answers may differ from those offered below due to rounding error. In all
cases, select the answer that is the closest to the answer you computed. To reduce
rounding error, carry out all computations to at least three decimal places.

transferred out and the equivalent units in ending inventory.
11) The following data have been provided by Graise Corporation from its
activity-based costing accounting system:
Distribution of Resource Consumption across Activity Cost Pools:
