Gerardo Warren · Answer 1

The computations are shown below:

1. Particulars Job 1 Job 2 Job 3

Direct Material $5,000 $7,000 $1,500

Direct labor $9,000 $4,000 $3,000

Factory overhead $2,000 $2,800 $600

(40% of direct material)

Total cost $16,000 $13,800 $5,100

2. The computation of the ending work in process inventory is

= Total cost of Job 1 + Total cost of Job 2

= $16,000 + $5,100

= $21,100

As these costs are not completed yet. Hence, it is to be considered as a work in process

3. The total amount of ending finished goods inventory is $13,800 as job 2 is finished
