The debits to Work in Process--Assembly Department for April, together with data concerning production, are as follows: All direct materials are placed in process at the beginning of the process and the first-in, first-out method is used to cost inventories. The materials cost per equivalent unit for April is:

The Brass Works is in the process of determining manufacturing overhead. Journalize events (a) - (d) to Factory Overhead, Miscellaneous Expense, or allocated between the two as appropriate. All items were paid in cash at the time of acquisition. Next calculate the overhead application rate and apply overhead to Work-in-Process.

In a process costing system, a separate work in process inventory account is maintained for each customer's job.

Equivalent units should be computed separately for direct materials and conversion costs.

Penny, Inc. employs a process costing system. Direct materials are added at the beginning of the process. Here is information about July's activities: Using the FIFO method, the number of units started and completed in July was

Conversion and direct materials are generally both added at the end of the production process.

The Mountain Springs Water Company has two departments. Purifying and Bottling. The Bottling Department received 67,000 liters from the Purifying Department. During the period, the Bottling Department completed 65,000 liters, including 3,000 liters of work in process at the beginning of the period. The ending work in process was 5,000 liters. How many liters were started and completed during the period?

If Department H had 600 units, 60% completed, in process at the beginning of the period, 8,000 units were completed during the period, and 500 units were 30% completed at the end of the period, what was the number of equivalent units of production for the period for conversion if the first-in, first-out method is used to cost inventories? Assume the completion percentage applies to both direct materials and conversion cost.

For which of the following businesses would a process cost system be appropriate?

Department G had 3,600 units, 40% completed at the beginning of the period, 12,000 units were completed during the period, 2,000 units were one-fifth completed at the end of the period, and the following manufacturing costs were debited to the departmental work in process account during the period: Assuming that all direct materials are placed in process at the beginning of production and that the first-in, first-out method of inventory costing is used, what is the material and conversion cost per unit (to the nearest penny) , respectively.

Mocha Company manufactures a single product by a continuous process, involving three production departments. The records indicate that direct materials, direct labor, and applied factory overhead for Department 1 were $100,000, $125,000, and $150,000, respectively. The records further indicate that direct materials, direct labor, and applied factory overhead for Department 2 were $55,000, $65,000, and $80,000, respectively. In addition, work in process at the beginning of the period for Department 1 totaled $75,000, and work in process at the end of the period totaled $60,000. The journal entry to record the flow of costs into Department 1 during the period for applied overhead is:

The portion of whole units that were completed with respect to either materials or conversion costs within a given accounting period is the definition of

Equivalent production units, usually are determined for

The cost of energy consumed in producing good units in the Bottling Department of Mountain Springs Water Company was $36,850 and $39,060 for June and July, respectively. The number of equivalent units produced in June and July was 55,000 and 62,000 liters respectively. Evaluate the change in the cost of energy between the two months.

In a process cost system, product costs are accumulated by processing department rather than by job.
