+Ending WIP        2000           50          30                         1000         600

Less Beg. Inv     5000             100         30                        5000        600

Total units         12000                                                     11000           15000

The units started and completed are transferred out units. The Beginning Work in Process is deducted to ensure first in first out. The units moved first in are transferred out first.
