A tornado struck the only manufacturing plant of Toledo Farm Implements (TFI) on June 1. All work-in-process inventory was destroyed, but a few records were salvaged from the wreckage and from the companys headquarters. If acceptable documentation is provided, the loss will be covered by insurance. The insurable value of work-in-process inventory consists of direct materials, direct labor, and applied overhead. The following information about the plant appears on the April financial statements at the companys downtown headquarters.
