A considerable portion of the text's process-costing presentation illustrated the proper way to allocate manufacturing costs to the units completed during the period and the ending work-in-process inventory. For companies that have a single manufacturing department, the journal entry to recognize completed production involves a debit to Finished-Goods Inventory and a credit to Work-in-Process Inventory. Required:What journal entry, if any, is needed for these same companies to properly account for ending work in process?

What will be an ideal response?


No journal entry is needed. The cost of the ending work-in-process inventory becomes the ending balance of the related inventory account (i.e., the proper amounts remain in the account after removal of the cost of completed goods).
