Question:

On June 30, Linda Lou Chemicals Limited has 18,000 units in its ending work-in-process account. These units are 80% complete with respect to conversion costs. Conversion costs are added uniformly throughout the process, but the production process adds materials in stages as follows:

Process Stage ........................................ Percent of Materials Added
0% completion ...................................... 10%
40% completion .................................... 30%
75% completion .................................... 45%
95% completion .................................... 15%


The company introduced 57,000 units to production during June and completed 54,000 units in the month. On June 1, the work in process was 70% complete with respect to conversion costs.
