Step-by-step explanation:

Sheridan Company

Shaping Department

Ending Work in Process $ 4640

Materials = 2000 units*$2= $ 4000

Conversion= 2000 units *20%* $1.6= 400*$ 1.6=$ 640

We find the cost of ending inventory by multiplying the materials unit cost with the materials units and the unit conversion costs with the equivalent conversion units.All materials are included because the materials are added at the beginning of the process.
