The Assembly Department uses a process cost accounting system and a weighted-average cost flow assumption. The department adds materials at the beginning of
the process and incurs conversion costs uniformly throughout the process. During July $190000 of materials costs and $135000 in conversion costs were
charged to the department. The beginning work in process inventory was $103000 on July 1 comprised of $80000 of materials costs and $23000 of conversion
costs.
Other data for the month of July are as follows:
Beginning work in process inventory 7/1 25000 units (40% complete)
Units completed and transferred out 70000 units
Ending work in process inventory 7/31 30000 units (30% complete)
