14-3 Process Costing The essence of process costing is the accumulation of costs by process, or department, for a period of time.

14-4 Process Costing Unit cost = Production costs Production Basic process costing formula used by a manufacturer of a single, homogeneous product.

14-5 Equivalent unit production is the sum of (1) the units finished during the period and (2) the equivalent units in the ending inventory of work in process. Equivalent Unit Production and Unit Cost

14-6 Equivalent Unit Production and Unit Cost Equivalent production = Units completed + Units in ending inventory x Percentage complete Equivalent production =50, ,000x 60% Equivalent production =56,000

14-7 Equivalent Unit Production and Unit Cost The weighted-average unit cost formula is: Unit cost= Cost of beginning inventory + Current period cost Weighted-average equivalent unit production

14-8 Equivalent Unit Production and Unit Cost The weighted-average unit cost formula is: Unit cost= Cost of beginning inventory + Current period cost Weighted-average equivalent unit production $112,000 ÷ 56,000 = $2.00 Unit cost=

14-9 Data for Kelco Company Production costs$112,000$128,400 Unit data: WIP, beg. of month 010,000 Completed in month 50,00070,000 WIP, end of month 10,00020,000 WIP, percentage completed 60%40% MayJune

14-10 Ending Inventory and Transfers Production costs accounted for = $100,000 + (10,000 units x 60% x $2) Production costs accounted for = $112,000 Cost of units transferred +Cost of to finished goodsending inventory

14-11 Effects of Beginning Inventory June Equivalent Units for Kelco Units completed70,000 Equivalent units in ending inventory, 20,000 x 40% 8,000 Weighted-average equivalent unit production78,000

14-12 Effects of Beginning Inventory Unit cost= Cost of beginning inventory + Current period cost Weighted-average equivalent unit production $12,000 + $128,400 78,000 Unit cost== $1.80

14-13 Effects of Beginning Inventory The disposition of the costs follows: Ending inventory of work in process, 20,000 x 40% x $1.80$ 14,400 To finished goods inventory, 70,000 x $ ,000 Total$140,400

14-14 Materials and Conversion Costs Ending inventory: Material cost (15,000 units x 100% x $1.10)$16,500 Conversion cost (15,000 units x 40% x $0.90) 5,400 Total cost of ending WIP inventory$21,900 Transferred to finished goods: Material cost (45,000 units x $1.10)$49,500 Conversion cost (45,000 units x $0.90) 40,500 Total cost transferred to finished goods$90,000

14-15 Materials and Conversion Costs Total costs to be accounted for: Costs in beginning inventory ($8,000 + $4,900)$ 12,900 Costs for current month ($58,000 + $41,000) 99,000 Total$111,900 Total costs accounted for as: Cost of finished units transferred to finished goods$ 90,000 Cost of ending inventory 21,900 Total$111,900

14-16 Multiple Processes Unit Data: Unit on hand at beginning of June0 Transferred in from Cutting Department45,000 Completed and transferred to finished goods40,000 On hand at end of period (80% complete)5,000 Cost Data: Beginning inventory$ 0 Transferred in from Cutting Department$ 90,000 Sanding Department conversion costs for June$132,000

14-17 Multiple Processes Calculate the Equivalent Production for the Sanding Process Units completed40,000 Equivalent units in ending inventory, 5,000 x 80% 4,000 Weighted –average equivalent unit production44,000 $0 + $132,000 44,000 Unit cost = = $3.00

14-18 Multiple Processes The cost of a unit transferred from Sanding to finished goods is the $2.00 from the Cutting Department plus $3.00 from the Sanding Department, a total of $5.00. Ending work in process: Cost from prior department, 5,000 x $2.00$10,000 Sanding Department conversion costs, 5,000 x 80% x $ ,000 Ending work in process$22,000

14-19 Multiple Processes Transferred to finished goods, 40,000 x $5.00$200,000 Ending inventory of work in process (from Slide 14-18) 22,000 Total$222,000
