At the beginning of the month, the Forming Department of Martin Manufacturing had 29,000 units in inventory, 40% complete as to materials, and 15% complete as to conversion. During the month the department started 98,000 units and transferred 100,000 units to the next manufacturing department. At the end of the month, the department had 27,000 units in inventory, 90% complete as to materials and 60% complete as to conversion. How many units did the Forming Department start and complete in the current month

Answer 1

71,000 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Units started and completed = Units Completed - Units in Opening Inventory

therefore

Units started and completed = 100,000 units - 29,000 units = 71,000 units

thus,

Units started and completed in the current month for the Forming Department is 71,000 units.
