F One unit of product is indistinguishable from any other unit of product.. F Each unit of product is assigned the same average cost.

Direct labor costs may be small in comparison to other product costs in process cost systems. Type of Product Cost Dollar Amount Direct Labor Manufacturing Overhead

6. © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 2000 Irwin/McGraw-Hill Process Costing Direct Materials Type of Product Cost Dollar Amount Conversion So, direct labor and manufacturing overhead are often combined into one product cost called conversion. Direct labor costs may be small in comparison to other product costs in process cost systems. Direct labor costs may be small in comparison to other product costs in process cost systems.

12. © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 2000 Irwin/McGraw-Hill Equivalent Units of Production partially complete Equivalent units are partially complete and are part of work in process inventory. Partially completed products are expressed in terms of a smaller number of fully completed units.

13. © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 2000 Irwin/McGraw-Hill Equivalent Units of Production + = Two half completed products are equivalent to one completed product. So, 10,000 units 70 percent complete are equivalent to 7,000 complete units.

How many equivalent units of production did Jones have for the period? a. 10,000 b. 11,500 c. 13,500 d. 15,000 For the current period, Jones started 15,000 units and completed 10,000 units, leaving 5,000 units in process 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 Equivalent Units

15. © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 2000 Irwin/McGraw-Hill Calculating and Using Equivalent Units of Production To calculate the cost per equivalent unit for the period: Cost per equivalent unit = Costs for the period Equivalent units of production for the period

16. © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 2000 Irwin/McGraw-Hill Now assume that Jones incurred $27,600 in production costs for the 11,500 equivalent units of production. What was Jones’ cost per equivalent unit for the period? a.$1.84 b.$2.40 c.$2.76 d.$2.90 Now assume that Jones incurred $27,600 in production costs for the 11,500 equivalent units of production. What was Jones’ cost per equivalent unit for the period? a.$1.84 b.$2.40 c.$2.76 d.$2.90 Equivalent Units

17. © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 2000 Irwin/McGraw-Hill Equivalent Units of Production – Weighted Average Method The weighted average method...  Makes no distinction between work done in prior and current period.  Blends together units and costs from prior period and current period. Let’s see how this works!
