1. Professor Debbie Garvin, JD; CPA – ACG2071 PROCESS COSTING CHAPTER 5

2.  Job – Order Costing  Each unique product or batch is considered a job  Manufacturing costs are traced and allocated to specific jobs  Process Costing  Used when homogenous items are produced  Total costs are divided by total units produced Difference Between Job-Order & Process Costing Systems

3. Job and Process Costing Differences? Job Order Cost Systems:  Individual job cost records  DM & DL traced, and MOH allocated to individual jobs  Cost of finished jobs flow into FG Inventory  Cost of sold jobs flow out of FG Inventory into COGS

4. Process Cost Systems: Series of manufacturing processes Cost/process is accumulated & moved from one process to next process Costs transferred to FG Inventory only from the WIP Inventory of the LAST manufacturing process When units are sold, cost is transferred out of FG Inventory into COGS Job Order Cost Flow DM, DL & MOH WIP Inv.

5. Mixing Dept Same cost accumulation in next processing department, in Packaging Dept, before all product costs transferred from WIP inv. to Finished Goods inventory Process Costing System

6.  In Process Costing, product passes through multiple depts Product and Cost Flows

7.  Benefits:  Cost trends  Budget to actual  Pricing  Financial Statements Process Costing Benefit

9. Flow of Cost Between Processing Depts

10. 1.$142,000 of DM costs incurred in January in the Mixing Dept. WIP, Mixing Dept$142,000 Raw Materials Inv. $142,000 2.$ 62,200 of DL costs used in January in the Mixing Dept. WIP, Mixing Dept$62,200 Wages Payable$62,200 3.Must assign MO. Mgt. estimates $2,160,000 MO & $720,000 DL cost for year. Predetermined o/h rate: $2.16m ÷ $.720 = $3 MOH for each $1 of DL cost. In Jan. ($62,200 DL costs x $3) = $186,600 of MO assigned to Mix. Dept. WIP for Jan. WIP, Mixing Dept$186,600 Manufacturing O/H$186,600 Flow of Cost Between Processing Depts

12. As process completed in one dept., units are transferred to the next dept. When Mixing dept completes its work, items, along w/their related costs, transferred to the Packaging dept. (transferred in cost). Assume during January, Mixing Dept. completes units w/a cost of $360,000. Completed units & costs transferred to Packaging Dept. WIP, Packaging Dept$360,000 WIP, Mixing Dept$360,000 Flow of Cost Between Processing Depts

13.  Conversion costs  DL + MOH  Equivalent units  Inventory flow assumptions  Weighted average  FIFO The Building Blocks of Process Costing

14.  Equivalent units  Amount of work done during a period in terms of fully complete units of output  When work in process inventories consist of partially completed goods, use equivalent units to express amount of work done during a period in terms of fully completed units of output The Building Blocks of Process Costing

15.  Inventory flow assumptions  Weighted average  FIFO  Cost-benefit standpoint  Weighted-average method costs less  Extra cost of calculating FIFO usually does not justify additional benefits gained from using FIFO The Building Blocks of Process Costing

16. In Jan. $390,800 costs incurred in Mixing Dept & 78,160 units completed  $390,800÷ 78,160 = $5 Cost/unit  Equivalent Units: Partially completed units are converted to a comparable number of completed units In our Mixing Dept. Ex. there were another 8,000 units that were 50% completed at end of month. Cost to get those 8,000 units 50% finished included in $390,800 cost. So cost per unit s/b $390,800 ÷ [78,160 + (8,000 x 50%)] = 82,160 units so $390,800 ÷ 82,160 equiv completed units = $4.76/unit Calculating Unit Cost

17. End of Jan. 800 units Transferred to Pkg. Dept.

18. McMillian Tire Company produces tires used on small trailers. The month of June ended with 300 tires in process, 85% complete as to direct materials and 50% complete as to conversion costs; 2,500 tires were transferred to finished goods during the month and 2,300 were started during the month. The beginning WIP inventory was 65% complete as to direct materials and 45% complete as to conversion costs. 1. Determine the denominators (how many equiv. completed units) to be used in the calculations of cost per equivalent unit for materials and conversion costs. Example Exercise #1

19.  Materials  Units completed_____  Equivalent units _____  Labor & Overhead (Conversion costs)  Units completed_____  Equivalent units _____ Example Exercise #1 Solution

20.  Materials  Units completed2,500  Equivalent units 255 2755  Labor & Overhead (Conversion costs)  Units completed2,500  Equivalent units (300 x 50%) 150 2,650 Example Exercise #1 Solution

21.  Average unit cost in process costing system called Cost Per Equivalent Unit  Formula for determining cost/equiv. unit is: Cost in Beg. WIP + Cost incurred in current period = Units completed + Equivalent units in Ending WIP = Average cost/unit Calculating Unit Cost

22. The balance in beginning WIP at Bing Rubber Company for direct labor was $135,000. During the month of March, an additional $650,000 of direct labor was incurred, and 25,000 pounds of rubber were produced. At the end of March, 8,000 pounds of rubber were in process and the units were 50% complete. At the start of March, the company had 5,000 pounds of rubber that were 30% complete.  Calculate the cost per equivalent unit for labor assuming that labor is added uniformly throughout the production process. Example Exercise #2

23.  Direct Labor  Beginning WIP$  March labor$  Total Labor Cost$  Units  Units completed_____lbs  Equivalent units (8,000 * 50%)_____lbs  Total Units_____lbs  Cost per Equivalent Unit  $785,000 / 29,000 pounds = $_____per pound Example Exercise #2 Solution

26.  Using weighted average assumption  5 steps to process costing:  Summarize the flow of physical units  Compute output in terms of equivalent units  Summarize total costs to account for  Compute the cost per equivalent unit  Assign total costs to units completed and to units in ending WIP inventory How Does Process Costing Work?

27. Seaview Co. manufactures swim masks in 2 Depts: Shaping & Insertion Depts. Shaping Dept had no masks in Beg WIP Inv. During month they began work on 50,000 masks. 1 st question: How many units were worked on (completed or not)? 2 nd question: What happened to those units ? (Finished or still in process) Shaping Dept Production Report for Month Step 1: Summarize the Flow of Physical Units

28. In this process, all direct materials added at beginning of department process. Conversion costs added evenly throughout shaping process, 25% completed as of end of Oct. 100% complete-DM; 25% complete-CC Step 2: Compute Output in Terms of Equivalent Units

29. In addition, 1.2m units had been completed & transferred out of Frying Dept to Pkg Dept during month. 1. How many equiv. units of DM & equivalent units of conversion costs are associated w/the 1.2m units completed & transferred out? 2. Compute equiv units of DM & equiv units of conv costs assoc. w/100,000 partially completed units still in ending WIP inventory. Frying Dept of Rummel’s P.C. had 100,000 partially completed units in WIP at end of August. All D.M. had been added to units, but units were only 60% through conversion process.
