Similarities Between Job-Order and


Process Costing
Both systems assign material, labor, and overhead

costs to products and they provide a mechanism


for computing unit product costs.
Both systems use the same manufacturing

accounts, including Manufacturing Overhead, Raw


Materials, Work in Process, and Finished Goods.
The flow of costs through the manufacturing

accounts is basically the same in both systems.

4-3

Differences Between Job-Order and


Process Costing
Process costing:
1.Is used when a single product is produced on a

continuing basis or for a long period of time. Job-order


costing is used when many different jobs having different
production requirements are worked on each period.
2.Systems accumulate costs by department. Job-order

costing systems accumulated costs by individual jobs.


3.Systems compute unit costs by department. Job-order

costing systems compute unit costs by job on the job cost


sheet.

4-4

Quick Check
Process costing is used for products
that are:
a. Different and produced continuously.
b. Similar and produced continuously.
c. Individual units produced to customer
specifications.
d. Purchased from vendors.

Processing Departments
Any unit in an organization where materials, labor,
or overhead are added to the product.
The activities performed in a processing
department are performed uniformly on all
units of production. Furthermore, the output of
a processing department must be homogeneous.
Products in a process costing environment typically
flow in a sequence from one department to another.

Equivalent Units of Production


Equivalent units are the
product of the number
of partially completed
units and the
percentage completion
of those units.
These partially completed units complicate the
determination of a departments output for a given
period and the unit cost that should be assigned to
that output.

equivalent to one complete product.

units and completed 10,000 units, leaving 5,000
units in process 30 percent complete. How
many equivalent units of production did Jones
have for the period?

Calculating Equivalent Units


Equivalent units can be calculated
two ways:
The First-In, First-Out Method FIFO is
covered in the appendix to this chapter.

The Weighted-Average Method This method


will be covered in the main portion of the chapter.

4-29

Learning Objective 2
Compute the equivalent
units of production
using the weightedaverage method.

4-30

Equivalent Units of Production


Weighted-Average Method

The weighted-average method . . .


1. Makes no distinction between work done in prior
or current periods.
2. Blends together units and costs from prior and
current periods.
3. Determines equivalent units of production for a
department by adding together the number of
units transferred out plus the equivalent units in
ending Work in Process Inventory.

the Assembly Department for the month of June:

4-34

Weighted-Average An Example
The first step in calculating the equivalent units is to identify
the units completed and transferred out of Assembly
Department in June (5,400 units)

4-35

Weighted-Average An Example
The second step is to identify the equivalent units of production in
ending work in process with respect to materials for the month
(540 units) and adding this to the 5,400 units from step one.

4-36

Weighted-Average An Example
The third step is to identify the equivalent units of production in
ending work in process with respect to conversion for the month
(270 units) and adding this to the 5,400 units from step one.

4-37

Weighted-Average An Example
Equivalent units of production always equals:
Units completed and transferred
+ Equivalent units remaining in work in process

A Comparison of Costing Methods


In a lean production environment, FIFO and
weighted-average methods yield similar
unit costs.
When considering cost control, FIFO is
superior to weighted-average because it
does not mix costs of the current period with
costs of the prior period.
