Harbor Manufacturing Company uses a process cost accounting system. Materials are added at the beginning of the process. Direct labor and overhead are added evenly throughout the process. The company uses monthly reporting periods for its weighted-average process cost accounting. The following are the operating and cost data information for October. The October 1 beginning Goods in Process Inventory consisted of 20,000 units. The costs for this inventory are $82,500 of direct materials, $24,400 of direct labor, and $48,800 of factory overhead.

At the end of the month, the goods in process inventory consisted of 15,000 units that were 40% complete with respect to direct labor and factory overhead and 100% complete with respect to materials. Prepare the company's process cost summary for October using the weighted average method.

To determine unit cost under a process cost accounting system, equivalent units produced must be calculated if the company has goods in process inventories.
