The document discusses product costing and cost accumulation in a batch production environment. It explains that product costs are used for financial accounting, managerial accounting, and cost management purposes. It also describes how costs flow through a manufacturing firm, beginning with being added to work-in-process inventory, then transferred to finished goods inventory when production is complete, and finally expensed as cost of goods sold when products are sold. The document provides an overview of job-order costing and process costing systems.
2. goods sold on the income statement.
Managerial Accounting and Cost Management
Product costs are used for planning, control, directing, and
management decision making.

Other Interested Organizations
There is an ever increasing need to use data in external
organizations as well.
Product costing is the assignment of production costs to all
output of the organization. A product-costing system
accumulates the costs incurred in a production process and
assigns those costs to the organization’s outputs. Product
costing produces data that are needed for a variety of purposes
in financial accounting, managerial accounting, and cost
management.
Use in Financial Accounting – Products costs are used to value
inventory on the balance sheet and to compute the cost of goods
sold on the income statement.
Use in Managerial Accounting - Product costs are needed to
help management plan, control, and direct operations. In
addition, they are needed to help with management decision
making.
Use in Reporting to Interested Organizations – There is an ever-
growing need for product cost information in relationships
between firms and outside organizations. (LO 3-1)
Flow of Costs in Manufacturing Firm
3-*
3. Manufacturing costs consist of direct material, direct labor, and
manufacturing overhead. As production takes place, all
manufacturing costs are added to the Work-in-Process Inventory
(WIP) account with a debit. As soon as products are completed,
their product costs are transferred from Work-in-Process
Inventory to Finished-Goods Inventory with a credit to Work in
Process and a debit to Finished Goods. During the time period
when products are sold, the product cost of the inventory sold is
removed from Finished Goods and added to Cost of Goods Sold,
which is an expense of the period in which the sale occurred. A
credit to Finished Goods and a debit to Cost of Goods Sold
completes this step. Cost of Goods Sold is closed into the
Income Summary account at the end of the accounting period,
along with all other expenses and revenues of the period. We
will look at this in more detail and go through each journal
entry recorded as the costs progress through the accounting
system. (LO 3-2)

Types of Product-Costing Systems
3-*
Used for production of large, unique, high-cost items. Built to
order rather than mass produced. Many costs can be directly
traced to each job. TWO TYPES: Job-shop operations Products
manufactured in very low volumes or one at
a time. Batch-production operations Multiple products in
batches of relatively small
quantity.
Reviewer (R) - Slide 7 NN
First paragraph, first sentence: Changed the words 'Job-order
costing' to bold font.
Job-order costing is used by companies with job-shop
operations or batch-production operations. In a job-shop
environment, products are manufactured in very low volumes or
one at a time. In job-order costing, each distinct batch of
production is called a job or job order. The cost-accounting
procedures are designed to assign costs to each job. Then the
total costs assigned to each job are divided by the units of
production in the job to obtain an average cost per unit.
Examples of job-shop environments include film production,
custom home building, and aircraft manufacturing.
5. In a batch-production environment, multiple products are
produced in batches of relatively small quantity. Examples
include furniture manufacture, printing, agricultural equipment,
and pleasure boat production. (LO 3-3)

Types of Product-Costing Systems

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. Typical process cost applications: Petrochemical
refinery Paint manufacturer Paper mill
Process costing is used by companies that produce large
numbers of identical units. A process-costing system
accumulates all the production costs for a large number of units
of output, and then these costs are averaged over all of the
units.
Firms that produce chemicals, microchips, gasoline, beer,
6. fertilizer, textiles, processed food, and electricity are among
those using process costing. In these kinds of firms, there is no
need to trace costs to specific batches of production because the
products in the different batches are identical. (LO 3-3)
The primary document for tracking the costs associated with a
given job is the
job-cost record.
Accumulating Costs in a
Job-Order Costing System
3-*
In a job-order costing system, costs of direct material, direct
labor, and manufacturing overhead are assigned to each
production job. These costs comprise the inputs of the product-
costing system. As costs are incurred, they are added to the
Work-in-Process Inventory account in the ledger. To keep track
of the manufacturing costs assigned to each job, a subsidiary
ledger is maintained. The subsidiary ledger account assigned to
each job is a document called a job-cost record. (LO 3-3)
Job-Order Cost Accounting
3-*
Three major sections on the job-cost record are used to
accumulate the costs of direct material, direct labor, and
manufacturing overhead assigned to the job. The other two
sections are used to record the total cost and average unit cost
7. for the job, and to keep track of units shipped to customers. A
job-cost record may be a paper document upon which the entries
for direct material, direct labor, and manufacturing overhead are
written. Increasingly, it is a computer file where entries are
made using a computer. (LO 3-3)

A materials requisition form is used to authorize the use of
materials on a job.
13. As raw materials are needed for the production process, they are
transferred from the warehouse to the production department.
To authorize the release of materials, the production department
supervisor completes a material requisition form and presents it
to the warehouse supervisor. (LO 3-3)

Manufacturing overhead is a pool of indirect production costs,
such as indirect material, indirect labor, utility costs, and
depreciation. These costs often bear no obvious relationship to
individual jobs or units of product, but they must be incurred
for production to take place. (LO 3-3)

Therefore, it is necessary to assign manufacturing-overhead
costs to jobs in order to have a complete picture of product
costs. This process of assigning manufacturing-overhead costs
to production jobs is called overhead application. A
predetermined overhead rate is used to apply overhead on the
job-cost record. (LO 3-3)

Overhead is applied to jobs using a predetermined overhead
rate based on estimates made at the beginning of the accounting
period.
Overhead applied = Rate × Actual activity
Based on estimates, and determined before the period begins
Actual amount of the allocation base, such as direct labor hours,
incurred during the period
Manufacturing Overhead Costs

Predetermined
Rate =
Budgeted manufacturing overhead cost
Budgeted amount of cost driver (or activity base)
41. The accounting department chooses some measure of productive
activity to use as the basis for overhead application. In
traditional product-costing systems, this measure is usually
some volume-based cost driver (or activity base), such as
direct-labor hours, direct-labor cost, or machine hours. An
estimate is made of (1) the amount of manufacturing overhead
that will be incurred during a specified period of time and (2)
the amount of the cost driver (or activity base) that will be used
or incurred during the same time period. (LO 3-4)
Job-Order Cost Accounting

Reviewer (R) - Slide 19 NN
First sentence: Added a comma after the word 'costs' (total
direct labor costs).
Once manufacturing overhead has been applied, the cost
summary can be completed. Total direct material costs, total
direct labor costs, and total manufacturing overhead costs are
added together to determine total costs. These costs are divided
by the number of units completed to arrive at the unit cost. (LO

Overhead is applied to jobs using a predetermined overhead
rate (POHR) based on estimates made at the beginning of the
accounting period.
$360,000 / 40,000 hours = $9 per machine hour
Overhead applied = Hours on Job = 30 X $9 per hour = $270

Reviewer (R) - Slide 23
48. Bottom text box: Added a space after the value '30.'
So if we assume that the company has budgeted manufacturing
overhead for the period of $360,000 and they expect to use a
total of 40,000 machine hours over that same period, then the
pre-determined rate would be computed by taking the estimated
overhead of $360,000 and dividing it by the number of machine
hours to be used over that same period – in this case 40,000
hours. This equates to a rate of $9 per machine hour that will
be used to charge overhead to all of the jobs. If one specific
job took 30 machine hours to complete, then a total of $270 or
30 hours multiplied by 9 per hour would be charged to the job.
(LO 3-4)

49. 3-*
The production order for the job authorizes the start of the
production process. The materials requisition form identifies
the amount of direct material to add to the job-cost records and
the amount of indirect materials to add to the manufacturing
overhead account.
The employee time tickets identity the amount of direct labor to
add to the job-cost records and the amount of indirect labor to
add to the manufacturing overhead account.
Overhead is applied to the job-cost records using some cost
driver or activity base and a predetermined overhead rate.
Let’s examine the cost flows in a job-order costing system. We
will use T-accounts and start with materials. (LO 3-5)
Journal Entry
Purchases of Raw Materials
A company worked on two jobs during the accounting cycle.
One of the jobs involved making 80 deluxe models and another
job involved making 80 standard models. During the month, the
company purchased, on account, $38,000 worth of materials and
parts to be used in the manufacturing operation. The journal
entry to record the purchase of the materials on account is
shown. (LO 3-5)
50. Journal Entry
Use of Direct Materials
During the month, materials were requisitioned for use to
manufacture the products. One job (Job D42) requisitioned
$34,000 of direct materials and the second job (Job S116)
requisitioned $28,000 of direct materials. The journal entries
record the release of the materials requested into production.
(LO 3-5)
Journal Entry
Use of Indirect Materials
Reviewer (R) - Slide 29 NN
First sentence: Added a comma after the word 'month.'
During the month, indirect materials were requisitioned into
use. These materials are used on all types of jobs and the cost
incurred is relatively small. Since the amounts cannot be easily
traced to specific jobs, the company makes the decision to
charge the amounts to the Manufacturing Overhead account.
(An example of such a material would be epoxy or glue
products.) (LO 3-5)
Journal Entry
51. Use of Direct Labor
Reviewer (R) - Slide 32 & Slide 32 NN CORRECTION
REQUIRED
This slide and the narration notes does not make sense. The
slide shows $31,000, while the narration notes discusses
$28,000 ($16,000 + $12,000).
The cost accounting department uses the labor time records
filed during the month to determine the following direct labor
costs of all jobs. One job (Job D42) used $16,000 worth of
direct labor costs and the other job (Job S116) used $12,000 of
direct labor costs. The journal entry to record these costs is
shown. (LO 3-5)
Journal Entry
Use of Indirect Labor
The analysis of labor time records also revealed that the
company incurred $14,000 of labor costs that were not charged
out to any particular job. This labor cost comprises some
production supervisor time and wages of various employees who
spent some of their time on maintenance and general clean up of
the factory. This journal entry records the indirect labor costs
to manufacturing overhead. (LO 3-5)
52. Journal Entry
Manufacturing Costs Incurred
The company incurred various overhead costs or indirect
production costs provided during the month. After analyzing
the costs, the compound entry is made to record these overhead
costs. (LO 3-5)

(Job-Cost Record)
Job-Order System Cost Flows
3-*
In a previous slide, we saw how overhead costs were incurred or
accumulated on the debit side of the manufacturing overhead
account. Overhead must be applied to each job-cost record
based on the predetermined overhead rate and the actual activity
for that job. The overhead applied is also recorded in the work-
in-process account with a debit. The manufacturing overhead
account is decreased by the amount of overhead applied with a
credit. The actual overhead cost incurred and the amount of
applied overhead rarely will match. This is caused by errors in
the estimates of overhead and activity used to compute the
predetermined overhead rate. Let’s see how overhead is applied
through the journal entry process. (LO 3-5)
Application of Overhead
Actual use of machine hours for the two jobs were as follows:
Reviewer (R) - Slide 36 NN
Second paragraph, third sentence: Changed the value '1800' to
read '1,800.'
Recall that we discussed the pre-determined overhead rate
54. earlier. The rate was computed by taking the company’s
estimated manufacturing overhead and dividing by the total
budgeted machine hours. We computed the rate per machine
hour to be $9.00.
The company reviewed factory machine usage records that
indicated that the actual machine usage was as shown. Now let’s
make a journal entry to reflect the application of the overhead
costs to the jobs. Job number D42 used 1,800 machine hours
and so that job will be charged with $16,200 in overhead costs.
Job S116 used 2,000 machine hours and so that job will be
charged with $18,000 in overhead costs. The journal entry to
show how the overhead is applied will be shown next. (LO 3-5)
Journal Entry
Application of Manufacturing Overhead
The journal entry to add applied manufacturing overhead to
Work-In-Process using the previous computations includes a
debit to WIP and a credit to Manufacturing Overhead. (LO 3-5)
Journal Entry
Selling and Administrative Costs
Actual Costs Incurred
Journal Entry to record the costs
During the month the company incurred some typical selling
and administrative costs as shown. Remember that these costs
55. are period costs, not product costs. They are NOT
manufacturing costs and so they do NOT go through the WIP
account. They are instead treated as expenses of the
accounting period in which they are incurred. Take a moment to
review the costs incurred and the resulting journal entry. (LO
3-5)
Journal Entry
Completion of a Production Job
Job Number S116 was completed during the period, whereas Job
umber D42 remained in process at the end of the period. As the
job cost record (or Cost Summary) for Job S116 indicates, the
total cost of job S116 was $48,000. Since this job was
completed, the cost of $48,000 is transferred out of the WIP
account and into Finished-Goods. (LO 3-5)
Journal Entry
Sale of Goods
Sixty of the standard product in job number S116 were sold for
$900 each during the period. The cost of each unit sold was
$600 as shown in the job record. The following journal entries
are made. The first one for $54,000 records the revenue
generated by the sale and can be computed by taking the sixty
units sold multiplied by the selling price of $900 each. Next,
the per unit cost associated with the sale was $600 each. So the
$36,000 or $600 multiplied by 60 units was taken out of the
56. Finished Goods inventory and charged to Cost of Goods Sold.
The remaining unsold units are still in Finished Goods account
and will remain there until the units are sold. (LO 3-5)
Underapplied and Overapplied Overhead
Remember that the company incurred actual manufacturing
overhead of $34,450, but only applied $34,200 to the jobs in
Work-In-Process. The amount by which the actual overhead
exceeded the applied overhead was $250 as shown. This is
referred to as underapplied overhead. This means that the pre-
determined overhead rate was underestimated by just a small
amount. If the actual overhead had been less than the applied
overhead, then we would have overapplied overhead. If the
amount is immaterial, you can close it to cost of goods sold. In
this case, the $250 would be disposed of by the journal entry
shown. (LO 3-5)

In many ways, job-order costing and process costing are similar.
Both product-costing systems have the same ultimate purpose—
assignment of production costs to units of output. Moreover, the

In job-order costing, costs are accumulated by job order and
recorded on job-cost records. The cost of each unit in a
particular job order is found by dividing the total cost of the job
order by the number of units in the job. This cost flow was
described in the previous chapter. (LO 4-1)

In process costing, costs are accumulated by department, rather

In a single production department situation, direct-material,
direct-labor, and manufacturing-overhead costs are added to a
Work-in-Process Inventory account. As goods are finished,
costs are transferred to Finished-Goods Inventory. During the
period when goods are sold, the product costs are transferred to
Cost of Goods Sold. Let’s take a look at the specific journal
entries involved in a two-department process. (LO 4-2)

Journal Entry
Direct Material, Direct Labor, and Overhead Applied
The journal entry for the case of two sequential departments, as
illustrated in your text, will be demonstrated. In this journal
entry, we see $50,000 of direct materials, $20,000 of direct
labor, and $30,000 of manufacturing overhead applied to the
WIP account for Department A – the first department. The
overhead would have been applied using the same method as we
learned about in the job order costing chapter. The numbers
used in the journal entry are assumed for the purpose of
showing the form of the entries. (LO 4-2)

84. Journal Entry
Dept. B – Transferred In Costs
When production in Department A completes its work on some
units of the product, those units are transferred to production
department B. The costs assigned to these goods are transferred
from the Work-In-Process Inventory account for department A
to the Work-In-Process Inventory Account for Department B.
In Department B, the costs assigned to those partially completed
products are called transferred-in costs. (LO 4-2)
Journal Entry
Dept. B – Direct materials, Direct Labor, and Manufacturing
Overhead
Direct material and direct labor are used in production
department B, and manufacturing overhead is applied using a
predetermined rate. These costs are accumulated in Department
B and recorded as shown. (LO 4-2)
Journal Entry
Goods Completed
85. As goods are completed in Department B, the cost of those
goods are transferred out of Work-In-Process and into Finished
Goods Inventory. (LO 4-2)
Journal Entry
Goods Sold
The costs of the goods completed stay in the Finished-Goods
Inventory account until the units are sold, at which point the
costs are transferred OUT of Finished-Goods Inventory and
INTO Cost of Goods Sold. At this point, the cost has finally
been transferred to the Income Statement. The costs have no
more future value. (Note: Just as in Job-Order Costing, the
revenue earned from the units sold would also typically be
recorded when the goods are sold.) (LO 4-2)

Learning Objective 4-3. Prepare a table of equivalent units
under weighted-average process costing.
Equivalent Units: A Key Concept
Costs are accumulated for a period of time for products in work-
in-process inventory.
86. Products in work-in-process inventory at the beginning and end
of the period are only partially complete.
Equivalent units is a concept expressing these partially
completed products as a smaller number of fully completed
products.
The term equivalent units is used in process costing to refer to
the amount of manufacturing activity that has been applied to a
batch of physical units. (LO 4-3)
*
Equivalent Units Example
Two half completed products are equivalent to one completed
product.
So, 10,000 units that are 70% complete
are equivalent to 7,000 complete units.

*
For example, two units which are 50 percent complete are
equivalent to one unit that is 100 percent complete. Likewise,
10,000 units that are 70 percent complete is 7,000 equivalent
units. (LO3)
For the current period, Jones started 15,000 units and completed
10,000 units, leaving 5,000 units in process 30% complete.

90. For the current period, Jones 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 Jones
have for the period?
a. 10,000
b. 11,500
c. 13,500
d. 15,000
10,000 units + (5,000 units × .30)
= 11,500 equivalent units
Equivalent Units Question 1
4-*
*
The 5,000 units that are 30 percent complete are equivalent to
1,500 units. Add that to the 10,000 units that are 100 percent
complete for a total of 11,500 equivalent units. (LO 4-3)
Jones incurred $27,600 in
production costs for the 11,500 equivalent units. What was
Jones’s cost per equivalent unit for the period?
a. $1.84
b. $2.40
c. $2.76

Jones’s cost per equivalent unit for the period?
a. $1.84

c. $2.40
d. $2.90
Equivalent Units Question 2
4-*
$27,600 ÷ 11,500 equivalent units
= $2.40 per equivalent unit
*
The production costs are divided by the number of equivalent
units to arrive at the cost per equivalent unit. (LO 4-3)
Calculating and Using Equivalent Units of Production

4-*
*
Direct material is usually placed into production at beginning of
the production process. In contrast, direct labor and
manufacturing overhead, called conversion costs, usually are
incurred uniformly throughout the process. When an accounting
period ends, the partially completed goods that remain in
process generally are at different stages of completion with
respect to material and conversion activity. The most important
feature of process costing is that the costs of direct material and
conversion are assigned to equivalent units rather than to
physical units. (LO 4-3)

*
The key document in a typical process-costing system is the
departmental production report, prepared for each production
department at the end of each accounting period. The
departmental production report summarizes the flow of
production quantities through the department, and it shows the
amount of production cost transferred out of the department’s
Work-in-Process Inventory account during the period. There are
four steps used in preparing a departmental production report:
94. 1. Analysis of physical flow of units.
2. Calculation of equivalent units.
3. Computation of unit costs.
4. Analysis of total costs.
(LO 4-3)
Equivalent Units of Production –
Weighted-Average Method
The weighted-average method . . .Makes no distinction between
work done in the prior period and work done in the current
period.Blends together units and costs from the prior period and
the current period.
4-*
The FIFO method is a more
complex method and is
rarely used in practice.
*
The method of process costing that we will focus on in this
chapter is called the weighted-average method. This method is
almost always used in practice by companies using process
costing. There is another process-costing method called the
first-in, first-out, or FIFO, method. (LO 4-3)
