2. a debit to Finished - Goods Inventory for $432,000.

Finished good will be debited to represent the amount of production during the period. This will later become cost of goods sold when sales occurs.

Explanation:

beginning WIP 68,000

added cost 450,000

ending WIP (86,000)

Cost of goods manufactured (finished goods) 432,000
