Reminder to expert; there is no begining inventory for case 3, nor is there a units transfered.This is everything that was given. I don't have any further information for this question. all the comments below are requesting for more info, but in the text "principles of cost accounting, by Vanderbeck, excercise E6-5" doesn't provide any further information. Please help me. Thanks.

Assuming that all materials are added at the beginning of the process and the labor and factory overhead are applied evenly during the process, compute the figures to be inserted in the blank spaces of the following data, using the weighted average cost method. (Hint. For best success in solving each case, solve them in numerical order starting with (1)]
