Because most of the parts for its irrigation systems are standard, Waterways handles the majority of its manufacturing as a process cost system. There are multiple process departments. Three of these departments are the Molding, Cutting, and Welding departments. All items eventually end up in the Packaging Department which prepares items for sale in kits or individually. The following information is available for the Molding department for January. Work in process beginning Units in process Stage of completion for materials Stage of completion for conversion cost Costs in work in process inventory: Materials Labor Overhead Total costs in beginning work in process 24,200 80% 30% $169,120 67,220 17,330 $253,670 Because most of the parts for its irrigation systems are standard, Waterways handles the majority of its manufacturing as a process cost system.
