Question 1:-
The ending work in process inventory at the end of March after allocation of overapplied manufacturing overhead:-
Ending work in process inventory = $19,940 - [($5,860/$51,580) * $4,700]
Ending work in process inventory = $19,940 - (11% * $4,700)
Ending work in process inventory = $19,940 - $517
Ending work in process inventory = $19,423
Based on the above calculation, the correct answer is Option D - $19,423. The ending work in process inventory at the end of March = $19,423
Option A, Option B and Option C are incorrect based on the above calculations.
