a) Adom Ltd manufactures Omicron vaccine for the treatment of COVID-19 in Africa. The manufacturing process uses two raw materials (M & W) which are mixed in the proportions (2:3). Materials are priced: M = GH¢10 per kg and W = GH¢3.2 per kg. Normal weight loss of 5% of material input is expected during the process, and material losses recorded in the manufacturing process have no saleable value. At the end of production, 18,260 kg of Omicron vaccine were manufactured from 19,320 kg of raw materials. Conversion costs in the period were GH¢57,316. There was no work in process at the beginning or end of the period.

Required:
Prepare the Process Account of the Omicron vaccine for the period. (10 marks)
