First-in-first-out system of process costing


Problem: FIFO Aluminum processes a single type of aluminum. During the current period the following information was given:

Units Materials Costs Converstion Costs
Beginning Inventory 3,000 $4,500 $4,800
Started During the Current Period 20,000 $48,000 $65,000
Ending Inventory 2,500

All materials are added at the beginning of the production process. The beginning inventory was 30% complete as to conversion cost, while the ending inventory was 40% completed for conversion costs. FIFO Aluminum uses the first-in, first-out system of process costing.

a. $113,236

b. $113,160

c. $113,980

d. $122,300
