Answer:

The Devon Motor Company

The cost of batteries that would appear in each of the following accounts on April 30th:

a) raw materials =                                   $32,000

b) work in process =                              $60,000

c) finished goods =                               $162,000

d) cost of goods sold =                        $378,000

e) selling expense =                                $8,000

Total cost of batteries purchased =  $640,000

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Beginning inventory = 0

Purchase of batteries = 8,000 at $80 = $640,000

Used batteries =            7,600

Ending inventory =           400 at $80 = $32,000 raw materials

Used batteries =            7,600:

Selling expenses =            100 * $80 = $8,000

Work in process =         7,500

Ending WIP =   (7,500 - 6,750) * $80 = $60,000

Finished goods = 90%  6,750 * $80 = $540,000

Ending inventory 30%   2,025 * $80 = $162,000

Cost of goods sold 70% 4,725 * $80 = $378,000
