Assessment task 2 HL02- Question 3 Farah Ltd produces non-breakable containers in two processes: Mixing and Moulding. Costs are assigned using the Weighted Average method. On 1 August 2015 the Moulding Department had work in process inventory of 1,000 units which were 50% complete as to conversion costs. & 500 9P Work in process inventory at 31 August consisted of 2,800 units which were 75% complete as to conversion costs. o 100 cl During August the Moulding Department transferred 20,000 good units to finished goods. 800 units were lost during production, 400 of which were considered normal spoilage, and 400 abnormal. Lost production is detected at the end of the process. The cost of normal units lost in production is to be added to the cost of good units completed. Conversion costs are incurred uniformly throughout the process. Units transferred in enter at the start of moulding.
