    Production Cost
    Edison Company manufactures wool blankets and accounts for product costs using process costing. The following information is available regarding its May inventories.

    Beginning
    Inventory Ending
    Inventory
    Raw materials inventory $ 63,000 $ 43,000
    Goods in process inventory 422,000 513,500
    Finished goods inventory 608,000 523,001

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------


    The following additional information describes the company's production activities for May.

    Raw materials purchases (on credit) $ 270,000
    Factory payroll cost (paid in cash) 1,561,000
    Other overhead cost (Other Accounts credited) 81,000
    Materials used
    Direct $ 179,500
    Indirect 78,000
    Labor used
    Direct $ 751,000
    Indirect 810,000
    Overhead rate as a percent of direct labor 110 %
    Sales (on credit) $ 4,000,000
    I am confused about how I can calculate the cost of good sold, and cost of product transferred. I tried about 100% times, but can't solve it. Will really appreciate any hint to solve this problem.
