beginning WIP 800

Question: which are the physical units in the beginning work in process inventory?

Explanation:

The beginning WIP and the started and completed untis will be the total transferred units.

We first, solve for the start and completed:

Unit Stated 25,200

Ending WIP (incomplete) 2,000

start and complete 23,200

Now, we solve for the WIP:

Transferred units 24,000

start and complete (23,200)

beginning WIP 800
