Phoenix does not maintain any beginning or ending work in process inventory. The company's beginning balance sheet is as follows: Phoenix Company Balance Sheet 1/1/xx (dollars in thousands ) Assets Cash Raw materials inventory Finished goods inventory All other assets $ 1,600 380 700 13,600 $16,280 Total assets Liabilities and Equity Retained earnings Total liabilities and equity $ 16,280 $16,280 The company's standard cost card for its only product is as follows: Inputs Direct materials Direct labor Variable manufacturing overhead Fixed manufacturing overhead Total standard cost per unit (1) (2) Standard Standard Quantity Price or Hours or Rate 3 pounds $29.00 per pound 2.00 hours $ 18.00 per hour 2.00 hours $ 2.00 per hour 2.00 hours $ 10.00 per hour Standard Cost (1) x (2) $ 87.00 36.00 4.00 20.00 $147.00 During the year Phoenix completed the following transactions: a.
