Task: (CMA,adapted)
Consider the following data for November 2003 from Gray Manufacturing Company, which makes silk pennants and uses a process-costing system, All direct materials are added at the beginning of the process, and conversion costs are added evenly during the process. Spoilage is detected upon inspection at the completion of the prcoess. Spoiled units are disposed of at zero net disposal value. Gray Manufacturing Company uss the weighted-average method of process costing.
