Question:
(Hybrid costing) Snappy-Jacks Inc. manufactures sports jackets (one size fits most) for sports clubs and other organizations. Each jacket goes through the same conversion process, but customers may select the fabric (dacron, denim, or cot¬ ton) to be used. The company uses a standard costing system, and standard costs for each type of jacket follow:

The stage of completion for each cost component for the 300 unfinished jackets is as follows:
a. Determine the total cost of the jackets completed and transferred to Finished Goods Inventory.
b. Determine the total cost of the jackets in ending Work in Process Inventory.LO1
