Answer:

the cost of beginning work in process inventory for January = $35,900

Explanation:

first of all, let us lay out the relevant information to help our calculation

Beginning work-in-process inventory for June = $13,900

additional costs = $445,000

Completed and transferred cost = $423,000

Next, let us calculate the beginning inventory for January the next year, which is also the ending inventory for the current year, and this is calculated as follows:

Ending work in process inventory = Beginning work in process inventory + additional cost - completed units

= 13,900 + 445,000 - 423,000 = $35,900
