Operations Excellence (OE), Inc. has two production departments: Mixing and Packaging. Mixing DepartmentPackaging DepartmentWarehouseOE manufactures two products: Compound H and Compound L. Compound H is a high-end product that requires more expensive materials than Compound L and is produced at smaller volume. The two products go through the two production departments in essentially the same conversion processes. There is no work-in-process inventory for either product. OE uses an operation costing system that assigns materials cost to the specific product for which the underlying materials are used and assigns conversion costs to all products evenly as each product undergoes the same process in each production department.
