Ending WIP = 607,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Inventory account had a balance of $124,000. During the year, $250,000 of direct materials were used in production, and $74,000 of direct labor costs were incurred. Manufacturing overhead amounted to $829,000. The cost of goods manufactured was $670,000.

cost of goods manufactured = beginning WIP + direct materials + direct labor + allocated manufacturing overhead - Ending WIP

670,000 = 124,000 + 250,000 + 74,000 + 829,000 - Ending WIP

Ending WIP = 607,000
