Answer:

Units Still in process With respect to

Material: 700 Units

Conversion Costs: 700 Units x 60% = 420 Units

Explanation:

It is assume that Packing Department using average costing method.

Units at the beginning of process                               500 Units

Add: Units Received from previous department        1100 Units

Total Units                                                                     1600 Units

Less: Units completed and transferred out                  900 Units

Units still in process                                                      700 Units

Percentage of completion:

Material : Units still in process x Percentage of completion

Material : 700 Units x 100% = 700 Units

Conversion Cost : Units still in process x Percentage of completion

Conversion Cost :  700 Units x 60% = 420 Units

The process costing method indicates the process and flow of units. The still in process inventory consist material and conversion cost. The material added at the start of period hence it is 100% completed while conversion cost added at the end of period that is 60% completed. After applying percentage of completion we will get the Units still in process completed in ending inventory.
