Hamilton, which uses a process-costing system, had a balance in its Work-in-Process account of $68,000 on January 1. The account was charged with direct materials, direct labor, and manufacturing overhead of $450,000 throughout the year. If a review of the accounting records determined that $86,000 of goods were still in production at year-end, Hamilton should make a journal entry on December 31 that includes:
A. a debit to Cost of Goods Sold for $432,000.
B. a credit to Finished-Goods Inventory for $432,000.
C. a credit to Work-in-Process Inventory for $432,000.
D. a debit to Finished-Goods Inventory for $86,000.
E. a credit to Work-in-Process Inventory for $86,000.
