Answer 1

Answer: See attachment

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The journal entries for the preceding events have been attached. Note that for (e), work in process inventory was calculated as:

= $22400 × 5.5/14 = $8800

b. The ending balance for:

Material inventory = 1200 + 44670 - 40990 = 5880

Work in process inventory = 3400 + 40990 + 22400 + 8800 - 58000 = 17590

Overhead control = 9020 - 8800 = 220

Finished goods inventory = 2630 + 58000 - 59000 = 1630
