1、 2 Objective: The averaging process is used to calculate unit costs in process costing.3. Process-costing systems separate costs into cost categories according to the timing of when costs are introduced into the process.4. Estimating the degree of completion for the calculation of equivalent units i
2、s usually easier for conversion costs than it is for direct materials. equivalent units Estimating the degree of completion is easier for the calculation of direct materials since direct materials can be measured more easily than conversion costs.5. Process costing would be most likely used by a fir
3、m that produces heterogeneous products. process costing Process costing would be most likely used by a firm that produces homogeneous products.6. The last step in a process-costing system is to determine the equivalent units for the period. 2 The last step in a process-costing system is to assign th
4、e costs incurred to completed units and to units in ending work in process.7. Equivalent units are calculated separately for each input. 38. In a process-costing system, there is always a separate Work-in-Process account for each different process.9. Process-costing journal entries and job-costing j
5、ournal entries are similar with respect to direct materials and conversion costs. 410. The accounting (for a bakery) entry to record the transfer of rolls from the mixing department to the baking department is: Work in Process-Mixing Department Work in Process-Baking Department The correct accountin
6、g entry is the opposite of the entry shown here.11. The weighted-average process costing method does not distinguish between units started in the previous period but completed during the current period and units started and completed during the current period. 5 weighted-average process-costing meth
7、od12. Equivalent units in beginning work in process + equivalent units of work done in the current period equals equivalent units completed and transferred out in the current period minus equivalent units in ending work in process. The second part of the equation should be: equivalent units complete
8、d and transferred out in the current period PLUS equivalent units in ending work in process.13. In the weighted-average costing method, the costs of direct materials in beginning inventory are not included in the cost per unit calculation since direct materials are almost always added at the start o
9、f the production process. The costs of the direct materials are included in the cost per unit calculation.14. The weighted-average cost is the total of all costs entering the Work-in-Process account (whether they are from beginning work-in-process or from work started during the current period) divi
10、ded by total equivalent units of work done to date.15. The equivalent units are not needed in a weighted-average system, because all costs are just averaged. equivalent units, weighted-average process-costing method The equivalent units are needed in a weighted-average system, even though all costs
11、are averaged.16. The cost of units completed can differ materially between the weighted average and the FIFO methods of process costing. 5, 6 weighted-average process-costing method, first-in, first-out (FIFO) process-costing method17. The first-in, first-out (FIFO) process costing method assigns th
12、e cost of the previous accounting periods equivalent units in beginning work-in-process inventory to the first units completed and transferred out of the process. 6 first-in, first-out (FIFO) process-costing method18. A distinctive feature of the FIFO process costing method is that the work done on
13、beginning inventory before the current period is averaged with work done in the current period. first-in, first-out (FIFO) process-costing method A distinctive feature of the FIFO process costing method is that the work done on beginning inventory before the current period is kept separate from work
14、 done in the current period.19. The FIFO process costing method merges the work and the costs of the beginning inventory with the work and the costs done during the current period. FIFO only includes the work done during the current period.20. The first-in, first-out process-costing method assumes t
15、hat units in beginning inventory are completed during the current accounting period. MULTIPLE CHOICE21.

Which of the following statement(s) concerning conversion costs is correct? a. Estimating the de
