Account titles and ExplanationDebitCredit
Work in process inventory - Assembly department$1,224,000
     Work in process inventory - Forging department$1,224,000
(To record transfer of 72,000 units to the assembly department)

Table (4)

Working note:

Calculate total unit cost transferred.

ParticularsAmount
Beginning work in process inventory ($45,000 +$16,000)$61,000
Add: Start and complete cost:
Materials (67,000 units × $9)$603,000
Conversion (70,000 units × $8)$560,000
Total cost of units transferred$1,224,000

Table (5)

  • Work in process inventory – Assembly department is a current asset, and it is increased. Therefore, debit work in process inventory account for $1,224,000.
  • Work in process inventory – Forging department is a current asset, and it is decreased. Therefore, credit work in process inventory –Forging department account for $1,224,000.
