Answer 1

Cost of god transferred = $88,300.

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of job transferred out =

Opening WIP + direct material cost + direct labor cost + applied overhead - closing WIP

Cost of job transferred = 4,600 + 47,200+ 29,700 +15,900 - 9100

= 88,300.

Kindly note that closing inventory represents amount of manufacturing costs that has been incurred on production units but which are yet to be completed . So to determine the cost of what has be completed and finished, we subtract the value of closing inventory from the total manufacturing cost incurred till date.
