Answer:

Lap Corporation

The cost of the units completed and transferred out of the department was:

= $825,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Beginning work in process inventory = 80,000 units

Degree of completion = 100% materials and 25% conversion

Cost of beginning work in process = $226,000

Units transferred out = 150,000

Materials Conversion Total

Costs per equivalent unit $2 $3.50

Cost of units transferred out $300,000 $525,000 $825,000

= (150,000 * $2) (150,000 * $3.50)
