Question:
The Genuine Products Company manufactures “antique tables” in two processes. First, Genuine Products adds direct materials at the beginning of an assembly process in which the tables are assembled with precut and finished tops and legs. It then transfers the completed tables into an “aging” process in which they are nicked, scratched, and water-spotted by two skilled craftsmen. It adds no new direct materials to the aging process. At the end of the aging process, Genuine Products transfers the tables to the finished goods inventory. Genuine Products has the following cost and production information for the two processes during the month of March:
