Equivalent units of production is an expression of the number of units that would have been started and finished if all of the effort were directed at that purpose.

Process cost systems are used to apply costs to merchandise inventory.

Unit production costs must be calculated before the equivalent units of production can be calculated.

Which one of the following is a true statement about process cost systems?

Use the following information to answer questions In the month of March, a department had 8,000 units in beginning work in process that were 75% complete.During March, 30,000 units were transferred into production from another department.At the end of March there were 2,000 units in ending work in process that were 75% complete.Materials are added at the beginning of the process while conversion costs are incurred uniformly throughout the process.The weighted average method is used. -How much are equivalent units of production for materials for March?

Use the following information for questions A department adds raw materials to a process at the beginning of the process and incurs conversion costs uniformly throughout the process.For the month of January, there were no units in the beginning work in process inventory; 10,000 units were started into production in January; and there were 4,000 units that were 60% complete in the ending work in process inventory at the end of January.The weighted average method is used. -What were the equivalent units of production for materials for the month of January?

In a process cost system, labour and overhead can be added in any production department; however, materials are only added in the first department.

The accumulation of the three manufacturing cost elements to Work in Process in a process cost system differs significantly from how they are assigned in a job order cost system.
