Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Delivering a completed job to a customer is not a cost-related transaction and does not require any further allocation of costs. Therefore, it only requires moving the job-order cost sheet from the work-in-progress file to the finished goods inventory file. The other options involve cost allocation and/or adjustment, which require additional calculations and entries.
