CHAPTER Process Costing
Objectives 1. Describe the basic characteristics and cost flows associated with process manufacturing. 2. Define equivalent units and explain their role in process costing. Explain the differences between the weighted average method and the FIFO method of accounting for process cost. 3. Prepare a departmental production report using the weighted average method. After studying this chapter, you should be able to: Continued
Objectives 4. Explain how process costing is affected by nonuniform application of manufacturing inputs and the existence of multiple processing departments. 5. Appendix: Complete a departmental production report using the FIFO method.

Healthblend Nutritional Supplements Healthblend decides to produce 2,000 bottles of multivitamins. The Picking Department costs are: Direct materials $1,700 Direct labor 50 Applied overhead 450 Work in Process (Encapsulating) 2 200 00 The receiving report and the invoice are used to record the receipt of the merchandise and to control the payment. Work in Process (Picking) 2 200 00 The mixture is transferred from picking to Encapsulating.
Healthblend Nutritional Supplements The Encapsulating Department costs are: Direct materials $1,000 Direct labor 60 Applied overhead 500 Work in Process (Bottling) 3 760 00 The receiving report and the invoice are used to record the receipt of the merchandise and to control the payment. $2,200 + $1,000 + $60 + $500 Work in Process (Encapsulating) 3 760 00 The cost is transferred from Encapsulating to Bottling.
Healthblend Nutritional Supplements The Bottling Department costs are: Direct materials $800 Direct labor 300 Applied overhead 600 Finished Goods 5 460 00 The receiving report and the invoice are used to record the receipt of the merchandise and to control the payment. $3,760 + $800 + $300 + $600 Work in Process (Bottling) 5 460 00 The cost is transferred to the finished goods warehouse.
In process cost, costs are summarized by department for a period of time in a production report. A production report provides information about the physical units processed in a department and the manufacturing costs.
Equivalent Units of Production Equivalent units of output are the complete units that could have been produced given the total amount of manufacturing effort expended for the period under consideration.
Equivalent Units of Production Department A Units in beginning work in process --- Units completed 1,000 Units in ending work in process (25% complete) 600 Total manufacturing cost $11,500
= 200 units, 50% completed = 100 equivalent units Equivalent Units of Production Concept: = 100 units completed = 100 equivalent units Continued
Example: 1,000 units completed, 600 units, 25% complete 1000 units completed = 1,000 equivalent units = 150 equivalent units 600 units, EWIP, 25% completed Equivalent Units of Production = 150 equivalent units Total = 1,150 equivalent units
Preparing a Production Report • Physical units flow analysis • Calculation of equivalent units • Computation of unit cost • Valuation of inventories (goods transferred out and ending work in process) • Cost reconciliation

Healthblend Nutritional Supplements Step 2: Calculation of Equivalent Units Weighted Average Method Units completed 50,000 Add: Units in ending work in process x Fraction complete (10,000 x 25%) 2,500 Equivalent units of output 52,500
$13,650 52,500 = Step 3: Computation of Unit Cost $0.26 per equivalent unit
Healthblend Nutritional Supplements Step 4: Valuation of Inventories Cost of goods transferred to the encapsulating department: 50,000 equivalent units x $0.26 $13,000 Ending inventory: 2,500 equivalent units x $0.26 650
