Mercier Manufacturing produces a plastic part in three sequential departments: Extruding, Fabricating, and Packaging. Mercier uses the weighted-average process costing method to account for costs of production in all three departments. The following Information was obtained for the Fabricating Department for the month of September. Work In process on September 1 had 15,200 units made up of the following: Prior department costs transferred in from the Extruding Department Costs added by the Fabricating Department Direct materials Direct labor Manufacturing overhead Work in process, September 1 Amount Degree of Completion $ 76,750 100% $ 37,000 98% 9,500 8,720 70% 35% $ 55,220 $ 131,970 During September, 75,000 units were transferred in from the Extruding Department at a cost of $376,250. The Fabricating Department added the following costs: Direct materials Direct labor Manufacturing overhead Total costs added $ 214,200 64,800 33,680 $ 312,680 Fabricating finished 60,200 units and transferred them to the Packaging Department. At September 30,30,000 units were still in work-in-process Inventory. The degree of completion of work-in-process Inventory at September 30 was as follows: Direct materials Direct labor 100% 60 Manufacturing overhead 50 Required: a.
