Weighted-average method
Units in beginning work in process inventory + Units started into production = Units in ending work in process inventory + Units transferred to the next department
Units transferred to the next department = Units in beginning work in process inventory + Units started into production - Units in ending work in process inventory = 8,000 + 50,000 - 10,000 = 48,000
