ABC manufactures a certain products. Units are started in the Cutting Department and then
transferred to Finishing Department where they are completed. Units are inspected at the end of
the production process in the Finishing Department. Spoiled units are inventoried at their
recoverable value of Pl0 each and the unrecoverable value of spoilage is deemed a normal loss
and is charged to Factory Overhead Control.

At the end of June, 500 units were still in processed in the Finishing Department, 80% complete
as to material and 60% complete as to conversion cost. During July, 4,500 units were transferred
from the Cutting Department to the Finishing Department and 3,800 were transferred to finished
goods inventory. At the end of July, the Finishing Department still had 800 units in process, 40%
complete as to materials and 20% complete as to conversion cost. Cost data related to July
