Number of Units Cost per Unit Total Cost
Begining Inventory, December 31,2016 1300 $14 $18200
Purchases during 2017 37000 $14 $518000
Inventory available for production 38300 $14 $536200
Less: inventory transferred to production 33600 $14 $470400
Ending inventory, december 31, 2017 4700 $14 $65800

Note: Each pair of boots need 2 heels.During the year the company manufactures 16800 pairs of boots.

So, the inventory transferred to the production = 16800 pairs x 2 heels each pair = 33600 heels
