Work in Process, May 31:                                                     0

Materials                                                 15000

Conversion Costs                                  10,000                   25,000

Total Costs                                                                           225,000                  

NOTE:

The process by which we  determine the Conversion Costs  is by the relation:

Conversion Costs which is  = Labor + Overhead

Conversion Costs = 75000 + 60000

Conversion Costs  = $135000

And for the Total Costs ; we have:

Total Costs = Material + Conversion Costs

Total Costs = 90000 + 135000

Total Costs = $225000

Work in Process, May 31 = 225,000-225,000 = 0
