Factory makes feather pillows.

The manufacturing takes place in two departments:

A. Sewing department: cuts the cover for the pillow from cotton fabric, sews it together, and adds a zipper to allow input of the feather stuffing.

B. Stuffing department: fills the pillow covers with feather down, and inspects and packages the pillows for sale.

• Felicity uses process costing to determine its product costs.
