# of lamps in beginning work in process | 900 | 1100 |
Lamps transferred to finished goods | 5000 | 4600 |
# of lamps in ending work in process | 1100 | 800 |
In June, the lamps in the beginning work in process were approx, 90% complete while those in ending work in process were only 30% complete. In July, the units remaining en ending work in process were 80% complete. All lamps in ending work in process are finished during the next month.
