Plaid-Clad manufactures golf bags in a two-department process: Assembly and Finishing. The Assembly
Department uses weighted average costing; the percentage of completion of overhead in this department is
unrelated to direct labor. The Finishing Department adds hardware to the assembled bags and uses FIFO
costing; overhead is applied in this department on a direct labor basis. For June, the following production
data and costs were gathered:
Assembly Department: Units
Beginning WIP Inventory (100% complete for DM;
40% complete for DL; 30% complete for OH)
