Lecturer at Accounting Department (English Section), Faculty of Commerce, Benha University Ex. (4): The following are available data regarding process (M) which received 5000 units from process (N) at Dec. 2016. Process (M) has a beginning WIP balance of 1000 units, while the balance of WIP at end is double the beginning one. The following additional tabulated data are available, and you are required to prepare the needed reports, sheet for process (M), supposing that FIFO method is applied then resolve the exercise again supposing that WA method is used:
