1. Process Manufacturing Operations • Used for production of small, identical, low-cost items. • Mass produced in automated continuous production process. • Costs cannot be directly traced to each unit of product.

3. Equivalent Units of Production Costs are accumulated for a period of time by process or department. Unit cost is computed by dividing the accumulated costs by the number ofequivalentunits produced in the period.
+ = Equivalent Units of Production Equivalent units is a concept expressing a number of partially completed units as a smaller number of fully completed units. Twoone-half full pitchers are equivalent to one full pitcher.
Question For the current period, PencilCo 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 PencilCo have for the period? a. 10,000 b. 11,500 c. 1,500 d. 15,000

Equivalent Units 40% ofMaterial Equivalent units may be different for material and labor and overhead at different stages of a process. Stage 1 25% ofLabor andOverhead At completion of Stage 1 of the process, materialis 40% complete, but labor and overhead are only25% complete.
Equivalent Units 40% ofMaterial 60% ofMaterial + = 100% Stage 1 Stage 2 25% ofLabor andOverhead 25% ofLabor andOverhead = + 50%

Let’s look at actual units processed and actual costs incurred for GenX. Accounting for GenX

Accounting for GenX GenX uses a FIFO cost flow systemwith the following four steps: • Physical flow of units. • Computing equivalent units of production. • Computing cost per equivalent unit. • Cost reconciliation.

Computing Equivalent Units of Production Exh. 20-14 Since materials are added at the beginning of the process in Grinding, no additional materials are necessary to complete the beginning inventory.

Computing Equivalent Units of Production Exh. 20-15 Since labor and overhead were 331/3 percent complete in the beginning inventory, 662/3 percent of the work must be completed in April.

In the cost reconciliation, we willaccount for all costs incurredby assigning unit costs to the: • A. 100,000 units transferred from grinding to mixing. • B. 20,000 units remaining in ending inventory. Cost Reconciliation

We will illustrate the process cost summary for the Grinding Department of GenX in three sections: • Costs charged to department. • Equivalent unit processing costs. • Assignment of costs to output of department. Process Cost Summary

Total coststransferred to Mixing $6,350 + $15,050 = $21,400 Exh. 20-19
Total coststransferred to Mixing $6,350 + $15,050 = $21,400 $21,400 ÷ 100,000 units transferred = $0.214 Exh. 20-19
These unit costs differ because the$0.214 contains costs incurred in March that differed in amount from costs incurred in April. Exh. 20-19
