Answer:

the ending inventory is $8,748

Explanation:

The computation of the total cost of the departmental Work-in-Process Inventory at the end of the period is shown below:

Materials is $10 per unit

And, the conversion cost is

= ($32,173 + $25,735) ÷ (4,400 units + 540 units ÷ 2)

= $57,908 ÷ 4,670

= $12.4

Now the ending inventory is

= 540 units × $10 per unit + 270 units × $12.4

= $8,748

Hence, the ending inventory is $8,748
