Walbin Corporation uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system. The beginning work in process inventory in a particular department consisted of 17,000 units, 100% complete with respect to materials cost and 20% complete with respect to conversion costs. The total cost in the beginning work in process inventory was $24,800. A total of 51,000 units were transferred out of the department during the month. The costs per equivalent unit were computed to be $1.40 for materials and $3.10 for conversion costs. The total cost of the units completed and transferred out of the department was: Multiple Choice $263,840 $229,500 $197880 $240,040

Explanation: = 51,000 * 1.40 + 51,000 * 3.10

= 71,400 + 158,100
