Final Answer :
Cost of beginning work in process inventory + Costs added to production = Cost of ending working in process inventory + Cost of units transferred out$34,000 + Costs added to production = $30,000 + $374,000Costs added to production = $30,000 + $374,000 − $34,000 = $370,000
Cost of beginning work in process inventory + Costs added to production = Cost of ending working in process inventory + Cost of units transferred out$34,000 + Costs added to production = $30,000 + $374,000Costs added to production = $30,000 + $374,000 − $34,000 = $370,000
