All costs of the processes in a process costing system ultimately pass through the Cost of Goods Sold account.

Gilbert Corporation had 25,000 finished units and 8,000 units were 35% complete. The equivalent units totaled 30,200.

The cost of production report reports the cost of the goods sold.

Zang Co. manufacturers its products in a continuous process involving two departments, Machining and Assembly. Present entries to record the following selected transactions related to production during June:

Which of the following is not characteristic of a process cost system?

The three categories of manufacturing costs comprising the cost of work in process are direct labor, direct materials, and:

If 10,000 units which were 40% completed are in process at November 1, 80,000 units were completed during November, and 12,000 were 20% completed at November 30, the number of equivalent units of production for November was 75,600. (Assume no loss of units in production and that inventories are costed by the first-in, first-out method.)

Explain the concept of equivalent units. Give an example to validate your explanation.

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 2 during the period for direct labor is:

Department G had 3,600 units, 25% completed at the beginning of the period, 11,000 units were completed during the period, 3,000 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 total cost of 3,600 units of beginning inventory which were completed during the period (round unit cost calculations to four decimal places) ?

If the products of a manufacturing process are produced to customer specifications, a process cost system is more appropriate than a job order cost system.

The cost of production report reports the cost charged to production and the costs allocated to finished goods and work in process.

Department E had 4,000 units in Work in Process that were 40% completed at the beginning of the period at a cost of $12,500. Of the $12,500, $8,000 was for material and $4,500 was for conversion costs. 14,000 units of direct materials were added during the period at a cost of $28,700. 15,000 units were completed during the period, and 3,000 units were 75% completed at the end of the period. All materials are added at the beginning of the process. Direct labor was $32,450 and factory overhead was $18,710. If the average cost method is used the conversion cost per unit (to the nearest cent) would be:

The records further indicate that direct materials, direct labor, and applied factory overhead for Department 2 were $50,000, $60,000, and $70,000, respectively. Department 2 has transferred-in costs of $390,000 for the current period. In addition, work in process at the beginning of the period for Department 2 totaled $75,000, and work in process at the end of the period totaled $90,000. The journal entry to record the flow of costs into Department 3 during the period is:

The cost per equivalent units of direct materials and conversion in the Bottling Department of Beverages on Jolt Company is $.47 and $.15, respectively. The equivalent units to be assigned costs are as follows. The beginning work in process inventory had a cost of $3,500. Determine the cost of completed and transferred out production, and the ending work in process inventory.

The cost per equivalent units of direct materials and conversion in the Bottling Department of Mountain Springs Water Company is $.45 and $.12, respectively. The equivalent units to be assigned costs are as follows. The beginning work in process inventory had a cost of $2,200. Determine the cost of completed and transferred out production, and the ending work in process inventory.

Department G had 3,600 units, 25% completed at the beginning of the period, 11,000 units were completed during the period, 3,000 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 total cost of the departmental work in process inventory at the end of the period (round unit cost calculations to four decimal places) ?

Carmelita Inc., has the following information available: At the beginning of the period, there were 500 units in process that were 60 percent complete as to conversion costs and 100 percent complete as to direct materials costs. During the period 4,500 units were started and completed. Ending inventory contained 340 units that were 30 percent complete as to conversion costs and 100 percent complete as to materials costs. (Assume that the company uses the FIFO process cost method. Round cost per unit figures to two cents, i.e. $2.22 when calculating total costs.) The total costs that will be transferred into Finished Goods for units started and completed were
