Pittsburgh Aluminum Company uses a process cost system to record the costs of manufacturing rolled aluminum, which consists of the smelting and rolling processes. Materials are entered from smelting at the beginning of the rolling process. The inventory of Work in ProcessRolling on September 1 and debits to the account during September were as follows:

Bal., 2,600 units, completed:
	Direct materials (2,600 x $15.50)	$40,300
	Conversion (2,600 x x $8.50)	5,525
		$45,825
From Smelting Department, 28,900 units		$462,400
Direct labor		158,920
Factory overhead		101,402

During September, 2,600 units in process on September 1 were completed, and of the 28,900 units entering the department, all were completed except 2,900 units that were 4/5 completed.

Charges to Work in ProcessRolling for October were as follows:

From Smelting Department, 31,000 units	$511,500
Direct labor	162,850
Factory overhead	104,494

During October, the units in process at the beginning of the month were completed, and of the 31,000 units entering the department, all were completed except 2,000 units that were 2/5 completed.
