Job-order costing is used when many different jobs are worked on each period. • Process costing systems accumulate costs by department. Job-order costing systems accumulate costs by individual jobs. • Process costing systems compute unit costs by department. Job-order costing systems compute unit costs by job on the job cost sheet. 4-4 Quick Check Process costing is used for products that are: a. Different and produced continuously. b. Similar and produced continuously. c. Individual units produced to customer specifications. d. Purchased from vendors. 4-5 Quick Check Process costing is used for products that are: a. Different and produced continuously. b. Similar and produced continuously. c. Individual units produced to customer specifications. d. Purchased from vendors. 4-6 Processing Departments Any location in an organization where materials, labor, or overhead are added to the product. The activities performed in a processing department are performed uniformly on all units of production. Furthermore, the output of a processing department must be homogeneous. 4-7 Learning Objective 1 Record the flow of materials, labor, and overhead through a process costing system. 4-8 Flow of Materials, Labor, and Overhead Costs Direct Materials Direct Labor Manufacturing Overhead Work in Process Finished Goods Cost of Goods Sold 4-9 Flow of Materials, Labor, and Overhead Costs Costs are traced and applied to individual jobs in a job-order cost system.

We need to calculate equivalent units because a department usually has some partially completed units in its beginning and ending inventory. 4-25 Equivalent Units – The Basic Idea Two half completed products are equivalent to one completed product. + = 1 So, 10,000 units 70% complete are equivalent to 7,000 complete units. 4-26 Quick Check For the current period, Jones started 15,000 units and completed 10,000 units, leaving 5,000 units in process that are 30 percent complete. How many equivalent units of production did Jones have for the period? a. 10,000 b. 11,500 c. 13,500 d. 15,000 4-27 Quick Check For the current period, Jones started 15,000 units and completed 10,000 units, leaving 5,000 units in process that are 30 percent complete. How many equivalent units of production did Jones have for the period? a. 10,000 10,000 units + (5,000 units × 0.30) b. 11,500 = 11,500 equivalent units c. 13,500 d. 15,000 4-28 Calculating Equivalent Units Equivalent units can be calculated two ways: The First-In, First-Out Method – FIFO is covered in the appendix available on the web. The Weighted-Average Method – This method will be covered in the main portion of the chapter. 4-29 Learning Objective 2 Compute the equivalent units of production using the weighted-average method. 4-30 Characteristics of the Weighted Average Method The weighted-average method . . . • Makes no distinction between work done in prior or current periods. • Blends together units and costs from prior and current periods. The equivalent units of production for a department are the number of units transferred to the next department (or Finished Goods) plus the equivalent units in the department’s ending Work in Process inventory. 4-31 Treatment of Direct Labor Dollar Amount Direct Materials Direct Labor Direct labor costs may be small in comparison to Conversion other product costs in process costing systems. Type of Product Cost 4-32 Treatment of Direct Labor Dollar Amount Direct Materials Direct labor costs may be small Conversion in comparison to other product costs in process costing systems. Type of Product Cost Direct labor and manufacturing overhead may be combined into one product cost called conversion. 4-33 Weighted-Average – An Example Smith Company reported the following activity in the Assembly Department for the month of June: Percent Completed Units Work in Process, June 1 300 Units started into production in June 6,000 Units completed and transferred out of Department A during June 5,400 Work in Process, June 30 900 Materials Conversion 40% 20% 60% 30% 4-34 Weighted-Average – An Example The first step in calculating the equivalent units is to identify the units completed and transferred out of Assembly Department in June (5,400 units) Materials Units completed and transferred out of the Department in June 5,400 Conversion 5,400 4-35 Weighted-Average – An Example The second step is to identify the equivalent units of production in ending work in process with respect to materials for the month (540 units) and adding this to the 5,400 units from step one. Materials Units completed and transferred out of the Department in June 5,400 Work in Process, June 30: 900 units × 60% Equivalent units of Production in the Department during June 540 5,940 Conversion 5,400 4-36 Weighted-Average – An Example The third step is to identify the equivalent units of production in ending Work in Process with respect to conversion for the month (270 units) and adding this to the 5,400 units from step one. Materials Units completed and transferred out of the Department in June 5,400 Conversion 5,400 Work in Process, June 30: 900 units × 60% 540 270 900 units × 30% Equivalent units of Production in the Department during June 5,940 5,670 4-37 Weighted-Average – An Example Equivalent units of production always equals: Units completed and transferred + Equivalent units remaining in Work in Process Materials Units completed and transferred out of the Department in June 5,400 Conversion 5,400 Work in Process, June 30: 900 units × 60% 540 270 900 units × 30% Equivalent units of Production in the Department during June 5,940 5,670 4-38 Weighted-Average – An Example Materials Beginning Work in Process 300 Units 40% Complete 6,000 Units Started 5,100 Units Started and Completed 5,400 Units Completed 540 Equivalent Units 5,940 Equivalent units of production Ending Work in Process 900 Units 60% Complete 900 × 60% 4-39 Weighted-Average – An Example Conversion Beginning Work in Process 300 Units 20% Complete 6,000 Units Started 5,100 Units Started and Completed 5,400 Units Completed 270 Equivalent Units 5,670 Equivalent units of production Ending Work in Process 900 Units 30% Complete 900 × 30% 4-40 Learning Objective 3 Compute the cost per equivalent unit using the weighted-average method. 4-41 Compute and Apply Costs Beginning Work in Process Inventory: 400 units Materials: 40% complete $ 6,119 Conversion: 20% complete $ 3,920 Production started during June Production completed during June Costs added to production in June Materials cost Conversion cost Ending Work in Process Inventory: Materials: 60% complete Conversion: 30% complete 6,000 units 5,400 units $ 118,621 $ 81,130 900 units 4-42 Compute and Apply Costs The formula for computing the cost per equivalent unit is: Cost per equivalent = unit Cost of beginning Work in Process + Cost added during inventory the period Equivalent units of production 4-43 Compute and Apply Costs Here is a schedule with the cost and equivalent unit information.

The computation of equivalent units. 2. The way in which the costs of beginning inventory are treated. 4-57 Learning Objective 6 Compute the equivalent units of production using the FIFO method. 4-58 Equivalent Units – FIFO Method Let’s revisit the Smith Company example. Here is information concerning the Assembly Department for the month of June.

When considering cost control, FIFO is superior to weighted-average because it does not mix costs of the current period with costs of the prior period. 4-81 End of Chapter 4
