Swasey Fabrication, Inc., manufactures frames for bicycles. Each frame passes through three processes: Cutting, Welding, and Painting. In September, the Cutting Department of the Tulsa, Oklahoma, plant reported the following data:

In Cutting, all direct materials are added at the beginning of the process.

Beginning work in process consisted of $41,000$ units, $20$ percent complete with respect to direct labor and overhead. Costs in beginning inventory included direct materials, $$1,205,000$; direct labor, $$222,800$; and applied overhead, $$150,000.$

Costs added to production during the month were direct materials, $$2,429,200$; direct labor, $$3,454,700.$ Overhead was assigned using the following information:

Activity Rate Actual Driver Usage

Inspection $$150$ per inspection hour $4,000$ inspection hours

Maintenance $$750$ per maintenance hour $1,600$ maintenance hours

Receiving $$300$ per receiving order $2,000$ receiving orders

At the end of the month, $121,200$ units were transferred out to Welding, leaving $13,400$ units in ending work in process, or $25$ percent complete.
