Work in process on April 1 had 114,000 units made up of the following.

	Amount		Degree of Completion
Prior department costs transferred in from the Molding Department	$	163,020		100	%
Costs added by the Assembling Department
Direct materials	$	108,300		100	%
Direct labor		40,688		60	%
Manufacturing overhead		28,374		50	%
	$	177,362
