	Conversion Costs ___________

c. 3,650 units are placed into finished goods.

	Raw and In Process Inventory _________

Answer 1

Per hour conversion cost = 85000/1300= 65.38
a
Raw and In Process Inventory	68400		=3800*18
Accounts Payable		68400
b
Raw and In Process Inventory	62111		=3800*(15/60)*65.38
Conversion Costs		62111
c
Per unit cost = (68400+62111)/3800= $34.35
Finished Goods Inventory	125378		=3650*34.35
Raw and In Process Inventory		125378
Note: The final answer might vary slightly due to rounding off
