    Work-in-Process Inventory - Dept. 2: 750

    Work-in-Process Inventory-Dept. 1: 750

    Explanation:

    All the cost incurred in the department 1 was added in the work in process account of this department. While transferring the product from one department to other the cost of work in process will also be transferred to next department to accumulate all costs associated with the product. At the end the finished goods will be carrying all the cost incurred to manufacture that product. Due debit nature of WIP account the cost in transferred to next department's account by just crediting the WIP of department 1 and debiting WIP of department 2. WIP of Department 1 will be 0 and WIP of department 2 will be $750.
