Management Accounting is the practice of identifying, measuring, analyzing,


interpreting, and communicating financial information to managers for the pursuit of an
organization's goals. It varies from financial accounting because the intended purpose
of managerial accounting is to assist users internal to the company in making well-
informed business decisions.

Financial Accounting is the field of accounting concerned with the summary, analysis
and reporting of financial transactions related to a business. This involves the
preparation of financial statements available for public
use. Stockholders, suppliers, banks, employees, government agencies, business
owners, and other stakeholders are examples of people interested in receiving such
information for decision making purposes.

Cost Accounting is a systematic set of procedures for recording and reporting


measurements of the cost of manufacturing goods and performing services in the
aggregate and in detail.

Financial Accounting
Financial accounting is a branch of accounting that reporting financial information
primarily to the external parties, including investors (the suppliers of funds to the firm)
and creditors(debt provider to the entity). It is primarily concerned with the preparation
of financial statements that are useful for external users. The reports focusses on the
enterprise as a whole. The information is based on historical, qualitative, monetary and
verifiable information and is supported by documented evidence. Reports that are
provided in this branch are in the form of financial statements, tax returns and other
formal reports distributed to the various external users. This information may also be
used for financial analysis by management. This is also required for may corporation
firms as a requirements of the SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission) and BIR
(Bureau of Internal Revenue) for compliance with the country’s tax laws. Financial
accounting presents information with some degree of precision in reporting historical
information as at the same time it emphasizes verifiability and freedom from bias of
information that are relevant to the general user and some degree of timeliness in
reporting which is not critical in managerial accounting.

Management/Managerial Accounting
Management/Managerial accounting focusses on reporting information within the
organization rather than outside users. It addresses the individual or divisional concerns
rather than the enterprise as a whole. The information provided may be current or
forecasted, qualitative or quantitative, monetary or non-monetary and mostly all the data
are timely ad futuristic. Some of the costs are not recorded on the books of accounting
in the organization. Timing and relevance of information that has greater significance to
the internal users of information and decision maker within the organization. The
measurement of

Timeliness is most important quality of information that should be provided to the


internal users than other thus, management should get the information they need for
thier immediate decisions that cannot wait until tomorrow.

Management accountig is not distinct and separate from financial accounting as the
data from financial accounting are used in managerial accouting system.

Cost Accounting
Cost accounting is an expanded phase of general or financial accounting which informs
management promptly with the costs of rendering a particular service, buying and
selling of products and producing a product. It is the field of accounting that measures,
records and reports information about costs and it is also the essential to efficient
cooperation of business and industry.

Cost accounting provides information to both financial accounting and managerial


accounting as necessary information to finalize their reports. This is an intersection
between financial and managerial accounting. It provides product costs information to
external parties for decision making and also to internal parties for planning and
controlling.

Big Picture in Focus: ULOb. Distinguish the differences of merchandising


and manufacturing operation of entities in the industry and differentiate
their cost accounting cycle.

Metalanguage
For you to demonstrate ULOb, you will need operational understanding of the terms
enumerated below.

Merchandising concern business is one of the most common types of businesses we


interact with daily. It is a business that purchases finished products and resells them to
consumers.

Manufacturing concern business is any industry that makes products from raw
materials by the use of manual labor or machinery and that is usually carried out
systematically with a division of labor

Raw Material Inventory is the total cost of all component parts currently in stock that
have not yet been used in work-in-process or finished goods production.

Work in Process Inventory is materials that have been partially completed through
the production process.

Finished Goods Inventory refers to the number of manufactured products


in stock that are available for customers to purchase.

Direct Materials are those materials and supplies that are consumed during the
manufacture of a product, and which are directly identified with that product.

Direct Labor is the production or services labor that is assigned to a specific product,
cost center, or work order.

Factory Overhead is the costs incurred during the manufacturing process, not
including the costs of direct labor and direct materials. It is normally aggregated and
allocated to units produced during the period.

Cost of Goods Sold is the cost of acquiring or manufacturing the products that a
company sells during a period, so the only costs included in the measure are those
that are directly tied to the production of the products, including the cost of labor,
materials, and manufacturing overhead.

Merchandising Business Operation


No need to produce products as they buy products and sell the same products to
the end user. Figure 1. Presents the steps of calculating cost of goods sold for
merchandising concern business operation. Figure 2. Presents the cost flow of
merchandising company. The company purchases products or merchandise for cash or
credit to be sold to customer either on cash or on credit also. The unsold inventory from
last period that is called Beginning Merchandise Inventory and the net purchase that
composed of purchases plus freight in less purchase returns and allowances and
purchase discount will be added together to get the cost of goods available for sale.
Then, deduct the unsold product this period that is called Merchandise Inventory,
Ending to get the cost of goods sold or the cost of the product sold this period.

Illustration 1
Jose Company purchase merchandise worth P/ 750,000 pesos and return P/ 50,000 of
it to the supplier and paid freight for the purchases P/ 2,750. The company avail the P/
25,000 worth of discount. The merchandise beginning and end, respectively are P/
75,000 and P/ 65,000.

Figure b.2 Cost flow of merchandising concern business.

Manufacturing Concern Business

All types of business entities needed to have an information system that provide
necessary information. Manufacturing businesses
the information system that they should have is
designed to accumulate detailed costs data relative
to the production process. Thus, they need to have
a structured cost accounting system that will show
what are the cost necessary for the production,
where and how these costs are utilized by the
production process.

The production process and the merchandising


activities must be understand to appreciate the
importance of the efficient cost accounting system
as manufacturing and merchandising have
similar activities as to the following:
a. Buying of goods;
b. Storing of goods;
c. Selling of goods;
d. Must have efficient management;
e. Adequate sources of capital;
f. Employ many workers.

The distinctions of manufacturing and


merchandising are the following:
a. Manufacturers, must produce the
product they are going to sell to the
customers while merchandisers, buy
items in a marketable form to be resold
immediately to the customers;

b. Manufacturing process convert purchase items to make products while in


merchandising no process like this.
Producing goods by the process of transforming raw materials with the use of labor and
other costs and expenses necessary to finish the product that are to be sold to the
costumers. The similarities and differences of merchandising and manufacturing are
presented above. The 3 main costs in manufacturing concern are the direct raw
materials, direct labor and factory overhead that will form part as the total manufacturing
costs. The manufacturing business will maintain 3 different types of inventory account.
First is the Raw Material inventory are used for raw materials that are used to account
unused raw materials. Second is Work in Process inventory that are used to account
those unfinished product that are still on process. Third is the Finished Goods inventory
is that same set up as Merchandise Inventory account that are used to account unsold
completed products that are readily available for sale and some company use other
type of inventor which is the Factory Supplies inventory that are used to account
overheads that are still not used in the production.

The costs of materials used, direct labor costs and factory overhead costs (that are
composed of indirect materials, indirect labor, utility costs, depreciation of factory
building and machineries and equipment, supplies and other factory costs) are
transferred and accumulated to the Work in Process Inventory account during the
accounting period. After the production is completed and the products are already
finished, all the manufacturing costs from Work in Process Inventory account will be
transferred to the Finished Goods Inventory account. The remaining cost in the Work in
Process inventory account will be the Work in Process Inventory, End and this will be
the Work in Process Inventory, beginning in the next accounting period. All the costs
that are transferred to finished goods will be accounted as Cost of Goods Sold if the
products are sold that are reported to the Statement of Comprehensive Income or the
Income Statement of the company and the costs of the unsold product will make up the
balance of Finished Goods Inventory, end that will form part as the costs of Finished
Goods Inventory, beginning for the next accounting period.

The Uses of Cost Accounting Data


Product cost is important for managing the company’s production costs thus
management needs the information that is provided by cost accounting to help the
manager to gather information for planning and controlling the company’s operation.
The cost accounting provides information that will determine the product cost and
generate properly costed product and meaningful financial statement and other reports
to management.

The information from cost accounting will be used for analysis of the trend of the
manufacturing costs incurred in the production process for management purposes. The
cost determination will help the company to make a variety of important marketing
decision.

1. Determining the selling price of a product. The product cost information is


necessary for management to come up with a reasonable product selling price that
will cover the total cost and expenditures that the company incurred in
manufacturing, storing, selling of product and rendering services to customers.

2. Meeting competition. The reasonable price must be determine by the managers to


meet the price acceptable by the customers means that the price is lower than other
companies that produces the same products. This would be achieve only if the
detailed information about the product cost is appropriately determine and provided
by the company to maintain the cost at a lowest as possible so that the price will
also reduce compare to other company.

3. Bidding on contracts. To be rewarded a manufacturing contract by the


government, private firms submits contract to bid order. The contract price must be
the lowest as possible from other bids so that you will be the one to get the contract
but to come up with the contract price the unit costs of the particular products
relating to the manufacturing contracts. The bid price must cover all the necessary
costs and expenditure to be incurred by the company and at the same time the
company will realized a reasonable profit from the contract.

4. Analyzing profitability. The information of the unit product cost are used by the
management to determine the amount of profit they earned from the products and if
the profit can be maximized by eliminating some unnecessary cost incurred by the
company and concentrating their efforts in creating a highest possible profit for the
company.

Costs are in evitable in a company thus this are said to be used by management
purposes to evaluate the managers for their performance, to evaluate also the
company’s personnel efficiency or sued for decision making purposes. This are the
uses of costs internally but externally to evaluate the top management performance in
the result of the stewardship challenge given to them and decide about the organization.

This are main purpose of cost accounting to the management. Planning is the process
of establishing objectives and determining the strategies to achieve them. This will
provide good management and coordinate all the departments in the operation of the
firm. This can be done by the management with the help of the cost accounting
information by providing historical costa that are basis for projecting the data in the
planning process. The cost accounting information can be also analyze to consider the
relationship among costs and use as aid in estimating cost in the future and create a
decision that will give advantage to the company’s operation by some changes that can
be implemented for the success of the organization such as change in marketing
strategies, obtaining additional capital and acquisition of new and additional facilities.

Planning are divided in 3 components


1. Strategic planning – concerned in creating long-range goals and objective for the
organization as a whole.
2. Tactical planning – concerned in a shorter range plans, this are done to achieved
the strategic goals and objectives of the firm.
3. Operational planning – this are plans for day-to-day operation of the business in
achieving the tactical plans thus, emphasizing the coordination of the major factors
of production (materials, labor and overhead).

Controlling is the process of monitoring and evaluating the company’s operation and
determining whether the set of objectives based on the plans are achieve or not.

Job Order Costing System


It is one of the traditional approaches of product cost accounting system for those
company that make one-of-a-kind or special-order product. In this system, direct
material, direct labor and factory overhead are assigned to specific jobs orders or
batches of production. This system measures cost for each job, rather than for set time
periods. The company that uses this system are company that make ships, airplanes,
large machines and special orders. This are also used in service industry firms such as
in public accounting firms that are cost assigned to the audit engagements, the
consulting and architectural firms that assigned cost to contracts, while for universities it
may assign cost to every research projects. The unit cost are computed by dividing the
total manufacturing cost per job to the number good units produced for that order. It
uses one Work in Process Inventory Control account in the general ledger and
supported by job order cost cards or sheets for each job in process at any point of time.

Process Costing System


It is the other traditional approaches of product cost accounting system for those
company that make a large number of similar products or maintain a continuous
production. In this system the manufacturing costs are group per department or per
work center. It emphasizes a time period rather than the time taken to complete an
order. This uses several Work in Process(WIP) account as this system provides one
WIP account each work center or department or process. The cost are determined by
dividing total manufacturing cost assigned to each department or work center during the
period to the equivalent unit of production. If production process is consists of four
department process then the cost of the four department will be added together to
determine the costs of the product. This system is used by the company that produces
paints, gas and oils, automobiles, bricks, or soft drinks.

Operation Costing
It is a hybrid product costing system that are used in a repetitive manufacturing where
finished product have common as well as distinguishing characteristics. The
manufacture of clothing this can be assembled in one operation but these can be move
to other operation and have a deluxe lining added.

In the general rule, job order product costing system is more costly than process costing
system. Job order costing system is more detailed in record keeping than process
costing system. The managers should compare the additional benefits that will be
derive from knowing the actual cost of each unit. Thus, if the record keeping costs is
equal from job order costing and process costing then it is better to use job order
costing system but in order have a better decision then they need to get all the data
needed to consider the process costing system.

Out-of-pocket costs is the direct payment of money that may or may not be later
reimbursed from a third-party source.

Sunk costs is a cost that has already been incurred and cannot be recovered.
Controllable costs re those costs that can be altered in the short term. More
specifically, a cost is considered to be controllable if the decision to incur it resides with
one person.

Non-controllable costs is an expense that is not within the sphere of control of a


manager.

PRODUCT COST AND PERIOD COST

Product Cost
This is consist of the 3 major components namely: Direct Material, Direct Labor and
Factory Overhead. This are cost nescessary to produce a finish product.

Direct Materials are basic inggredients that are transformed to a finished product
aligned with the use of direct labor anf factory overhead. This are materials that are
directly, conveniently and economically traceable to the product example: flour is for
bread, steel sheet for automobiles, wood for tables and chairs and others

Directly traceable means that materials can be seen immediately to the product.
Conveniently tarceable means that the materials can be recognized without undue cost.
Economically treaceable means that the cost of the materials can be measureable
immediately without undue effort and cost.

If the material cost are not economically, directly and conveniently traceable they are
recorded as part of the factory overhead in the form of indirect materials. The example
of this cost are nails and paints in the furnitures, rivets in airplanes and bolts in
automobiles.

Direct Labor are amount of peso paid as wages to the people who works directly to the
product. This direct labor costs that are directly relates to the product of the company
includes the amount paid to machine operators, maintenance workers and other
workers directly involved in molding the products, while those amount paid to the people
not directly shaping the products are part of the indirect labor costs reported to the
factory overhead. This cost includes wages and salaries given to supervisors, machine
helpers and other support personnel. Payroll taxes, group insurance, sick pay, vacation
and holiday pay and other fringe benefits are usually included in the factory overhead
even it is part of the direct labor cost.

Factory Overhead the element that are considered as the indirect cost of all the
product cost. All cost that are not classified as direct material and direct labor costs are
recognized in this section. This are cost that are not practically, economically and
conveniently traced to the product. This is also called as manufacturing overhead,
factory burden and indirect manufacturing costs.

Indirect materials and supplies: nails, rivets, lubricants and small tools

Indirect labor costs: wages of lift-truck driver, maintenance and inspecton labor,
engineering labor, machine helpers and supervisors.

Other indirect factory costs: building, machinery and tool maintenance, propery taxes,
property insurance, pension costs, factory rent and utility.

Period Costs

46
Department of Accounting Education
Mabini Street, Tagum City
Davao del Norte
Telefax: (084) 655-9591, Local 116

This are cost that are reported as expense in the period it is incurred. This costs are
group into marketing or selling expenses and administrative or general expense.

Marketing or selling expense is the costs that are inccurred in connectionwith


securing the customer orders until the delivery the product or services to the hands of
the customers. This cost are referred to as order-getting and order-filling costs. Example
of this costs are advertising, shipping, sales travel, sales commission, sales salaries,
and expenses relates to the finished goods warehouse.

Administrative or general expenses is the costs that are spent to all executive,
organizational and clerical expenses that are not included in production and marketing.
This expenses are executive compensation, general accounting, general administration
and all expenses that are incurred by the company in the administrative and general as
a whole in the organization.

PRIME COSTS AND CONVERSION COSTS


Prime costs are costs that are direct cost to the product as this is the combination of
the direct material cost and direct labor costs.

Conversion costs are the costs combined from the direct labor and factory overhead
that are use to transform the raw materials to finished products.

DIRECT COSTS AND INDIRECT COSTS


Direct costs are costs that are immediately traceable to the product if it is product costs
and costs that are charged to the particular manufacturing department that incurred the
costs that are conveniently identified with the departments that benefited from said
costs are called direct departmental charges if the cost is the cost from the department..

Indirect costs are costs that are not conveniently and economically traceable to the
product and if indirect costs that is charge to other departments that are later transferred
to other department are called indirect departmental charges.
VARIABLE COSTS, FIXED COSTS AND MIXED COSTS
Variable costs are costs that will vary directly to the change in total in relation to the
volume of production. In essence, the total costs will vary as the volume changes but
the cost per unit will not change even if there are changes in volume.

Figure f.1. Plotted graph for variable costs.

Illustration 1

The labor cost of the company is P/ 4 pesos per volume produce


Volume Labor cost Cost per Unit(volume)
May 8,000 32,000 4
June 9,500 38,000 4
July 7,800 31,200 4
August 6,500 26,000 4
September 9,900 39,600 4
October 6,700 26,800 4
November 8,800 35,200 4

Therefore, the labor cost per unit will not change but the total costs will increase if the
volume will increase but if the volume will decrease then the total costs will also
decrease.

Fixed costs are costs that will remain constant in total even if there are changes in
volume of production but as to per unit it will vary inversely to the change in volume.

Examples are salaries of production executives, depreciation of the equipment and


building using straight-line basis of depreciation rental payments and insurance.

This costs are categorized into committed fixed costs and managed fixed costs.

Committed fixed costs are costs that are relatively committed on the management as
a result of past decision in a long-term basis. Example; depreciation.

Managed fixed costs are costs that are incurred in a short term basis and can be
easily modified and changed in respond to management objectives. Example;
advertising, research and development and training of employees.

Therefore, the total cost will not change as volume change as even if no produce the
cost will still be incurred by the company but the cost per unit is changing inversely as
the volume increase the cost per unit decreases and the cost per unit will increase if the
volume will decrease.

Mixed Costs are costs that has both the characteristics of fixed and variable cost or this
are cost that are partly fixed and partly variable. This cost has two types; semi-variable
costs and step costs.

Semi-variable costs are costs that definitely has fixed portion of the minimum fee
required and the variable portion is charge of using the service. Examples; utilities, cost
of cellphone or telephone plan. In the figure f.3 the line where it start is the fixed portion
and as the volume increase the cost will increase accordingly and that is the variable
portion of the costs.

The company renting a building for P/ 250,000 and in addition the company also will pay
2% of the total sales of the company per year. The company earned a P/ 2,500,000
total sales for the current year.

Fixed rent 250,000


Variable rent (P/ 2,500,000*2%) 50,000
Total rent expense 300,000

Step Costs are costs changes abruptly in a various activity levels. This are similar to
fixed cost in a very small relevant range. In other words the fixed costs will change in a
various level of production of the company as presented in the figure f.4.

Figure f.4 The graphical illustration of the step costs.

Separating the Fixed cost portion and the Variable cost portion in the mixed costs

The problem of the manager is to ascertain as to how much is the fixed portion of the
mixed costs thus, separating the variable and fixed in a mixed cost is necessary. Then,
the manager will now have to use either of the three (3) methods of separating fixed and
variable costs to analyze and evaluate the cost incurred by the company.

This course will only discuss two of the methods namely the High-Low Method and the
Least Square Method, while the scatter graph method will be discuss in other
accounting related subject.

High-Low Method is the method of separating fixed and variable components of the
mixed cost by getting the highest volume and their corresponding cost and the lowest
volume and also their corresponding cost. Then follow the formula below
Cost of the Highest Volume minus(-) Cost of the Lowest Volume
Variable Costs/unit = ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Highest Volume minus(–) Lowest Volume


or
CHV – CLV
VCU = ------------------
HV - LV

Fixed Cost = Cost of the highest volume – (Highest volume * Variable cost per unit)
or
FC = CHV – (HV * VCU)
or
Fixed Cost = Cost of the lowest volume – (Lowest volume * Variable cost per unit)
or
FC = CLV – (LV * VCU)

Total costs = Fixed cost + Variable costs or TC = FC + VC

Whereas;

Variable costs = volume produced * Variable cost per unit or V * VCU

Legends:
TC – Total Costs VC – Variable Costs
FC – Fixed Costs VCU – Variable Cost per Unit
FCU – Fixed Cost per Unit TCU – Total Cost per Unit
V – Volume LV – Lowest Volume
HV – Highest Volume CLV – Costs of the Lowest Volume
CHV – Costs of the Highest Volume

1. Compute:
a. the variable cost per unit
b. the total fixed costs

2. Compute for the total costs if the production is 7,800 units will be produced

Solution:

1.A
CHV – CLV 15,500 – 8,500
VCU = ------------------------- VCU = ------------------------
HV – LV 9,000 – 3,000

7,000
VCU = ---------- VCU = 1.1666…
6,000

1.B
FC = 15,500 – (9,000 * 1.1666…) FC = 8,500 – (3,000 * 1.1666…)
FC = 15,500 – 10,500 FC = 8,500 – 3,500
FC = 5,000 FC = 5,000

2.
TC = FC + VC
TC = FC + (V * VCU)
TC = 5,000 + (7,800 * 1.1666…)
TC = 5,000 + 9,100
TC = 14,100
Least Square Method

The formulas that are to be use in this solution are the linear equation formula.

Equation 1: Y = a + bx

Common Costs and Joint Costs


Common costs are costs that are employed in two or more department, operation,
accounting periods, services or commodities. This are cost that need allocation.

Example: Cost of depreciation of a building that are needed to be allocated to the


departments based on floor area that are used by that department accordingly.

Joint costs are costs that are apportioned to the products as these are product cost of
a process that produces more than one product and that the costs of the direct
materials, direct labor and factory overhead are incurred that are allocated to the
product at split-off point, which the product are already separable to each other. This

54
Department of Accounting Education
Mabini Street, Tagum City

Telefax: (084) 655-9591, Local 116

cost are not directly identifiable to any of the products, thus allocation is needed for the
products that are produced to absorb the cost of the production.

Capital Expenditure and Revenue Expenditures


Capital expenditures are expenditures of the company that will give benefits to more
than one(1) accounting periods. These costs are allocated to the different accounting
periods (e.g. depreciation, amortization and depletion)

Revenue expenditures are expenses that are charge directly to the current period this
is also the same with the term period costs.

Controllable Costs and Non-controllable Costs


Controllable costs are costs that can be manage by the managers that has power to
authorize the costs. E.g. Sales expenses and advertising costs are controllable costs

Non-controllable costs are those cost that cannot be managed or controlled by the
managers. E.g. Depreciation, amortization and depletion.

Cost Necessary for Planning, Control and Analytical Processes


Standard Costs are costs of direct materials, direct labor and factory overhead that are
predetermined and established by the organization for a product from the accumulated
past experiences and date from research studies. This is the benchmark of
management by accountant for budgetary cotrol system.

Opportunity Costs are costs of the alternative that are given up. Example beow:
Alternative 1. You are going to buy fone and load a prepaid worth P/ 15,000 and P/ 600
load per month.
Alternative 2. You are going to get a plan from a telecom company P/ 500.00 per
month for 2 years.

Therefore, if you chose to Alternative 2 then the benefit of the Alternative 1 is


considered as opportunity costs.
Differential Costs are cost that are called incremental or decremental costs that are
present in both alternatives. Changes of the costs are employs the revenue and cost
that are called marginal cost and marginal revenue. This maybe variable or fixed.

Example:

PARTICULARS Proposed Actual DIFFERENCE


Revenue 1,350,000 980,000 370,000
Cost of Goods Sold 650,000 420,000 230,000
Advertising 60,000 90,000 (30,000)
Commission 10,000 45,000 (35,000)
Warehouse Depreciation 100,000 85,000 15,000
Other Expenses 90,000 90,000 -
Total Expenses 910,000 730,000 180,000

Relevant Costs are future costs that are changing across the alternatives. All the cost
in the table above except other expenses are considered relevant costs.

Out-of-Pocket Costs are cost that require payment of money or this are cost that are
petty in nature.

Example: The employee will pay fare for the taxi P/ 90.00, then, this cost is considered
as pocket cost as this cost should be paid in cash.

Sunk Costs are costs that are historical and cannot be change anymore.

Example: The company purchase machine P/ 200,000 for special purpose. The P/
200,000 is the outlay and cannot be change therefore this is sunk costs.

Job Order Costing System


Job order costing system is a procedure that keeps the costs information during their
manufacture and construction separate in each jod or contracts. This method is applied
by shipbuilders, printers, construction engineers, repair shops, factories, workshops and
other. The cost per unit will be shown in each record for each job, contract and work
order. This identify each job produce and charge the cost in each job.

The quantity of the products are conveniently and economically produce and costed as
each job is considered as one lot, as the method is costing order by lots. The product
costs are assigned directly to the job order number or the lot number. This costs are
recorde in the summary sheet called the job order cost sheet, this sheet will collect
and accummulate the product costs that are applicable to a specific job.

Documents Used by Job Order Costing that provides Major Source of Information
Job order cost sheet is a document that collects and accumulates the production costs
in every job of the producing department.

Materials stock card is a record for perpetual inventory system that provides information
about the materials for the controls of materials in the company

Finished goods stock card is a document that are controls for the unsold finished goods
of the firm

Factory overhead control cost record is a document that is used to accumulate and
collects actual indirect costs of the production in producing the product.

Material requisition is a form that is use when the department need materials for thier
production. It specifies the unit cost, the quantity and the description of the materials
they need.

Time ticket a document needed in allocating and charging the cost that are done for
each job. This specifies the rate per hour of the emplyee in the specific job they worked
and the specific time they spent on that specific job, while clock card is needed by the
accounting department for payroll purposes.

systems used in accounting for materials and compute for the cost of
goods sold and ending inventory using different method of costing.

Metalanguage
For you to demonstrate ULOa, you will need operational understanding of the terms
enumerated below.

Purchase Requisition is a document used when an employee needs to make


a purchase or an order request on behalf of their company.

Purchase Order is a commercial document and first official offer issued by a buyer to
a seller indicating types, quantities, and agreed prices for products or services.

Receiving Report is a form of the business that documents what is owed to the
supplier in terms of payment for the goods received or in some cases, return of the
goods and an important record of the merchandise that a retailer has actually received
from a supplier.

Material Requisition is a document used by the production department to


request materials they need to complete a manufacturing process

Perpetual Inventory System a system that involves the continuous updating


of inventory records through the use of stock cards.
Periodic Inventory System is a form of inventory valuation that tracks the beginning
and the ending inventory within the accounting period, where the inventory account is
updated at the end of an accounting period rather than after every sale and purchase.

First In, First Out Costing a method of costing inventory that assumes that the oldest
products in a company's inventory have been sold first.

Average Inventory Costing a method of costing that computes units cost based on the
total cost of goods purchased or produced in a period divided by the total number of
items purchased or produced.

Essential Knowledge
To perform the aforesaid big picture (unit learning outcomes), you need to fully
understand the following essential knowledge laid down in the succeeding pages.
Please note that you are not limited to exclusively refer to these resources. Thus, you
are expected to utilize other books, research articles and other resources that are
available in the university’s library e.g. ebrary, search.proquest.com etc., and even
online tutorial websites.

Ending Material Inventory 400 units

Therefore, the ending inventory is coming from the latest purchase and that is from
purchase on May 31 at a cost of 52.50

So, the ending material inventory is 400 units * 52.50 = 21,000.00

And the direct material used is computed as follows

Material, Beginning 5,000


Purchases (41,600+25,500+20,600+36,750) 124,450
Total Materials Available for Use 129,450
Less: Material, Ending 21,000
Direct Materials Used 108,450

Alternative solution;

The direct material used is the total Cost subtract the ending material inventory
P 129,450.00 – 21,000.00 = 108,450.00

Discounts constitute a reduction in price


Trade discounts (Quantity Discounts) a reduction in price that is related to the volume of
units purchase. This is not recorded as this will just reduce the list price to come up with
the invoice price.

Example: Sunshine Company is to buy materials and supplies in bulk to Moonlight


Corporation and allow the company to a trade discount of 15%. The purchase is worth
1,000,000. To record the transaction is:
Materials (1,000,000*85%) 850,000
Accounts Payable 850,000
Purchases on account.

Same information above except that the trade discount is 10%, 15% and 5%. To record
the transaction is:
Materials (1,000,000*90%*85%*95%) 726,750
Accounts Payable 726,750
Purchases on account.
Cash discounts (sales discounts and purchase discounts) is given for prompt payment
of accounts.

Taken is a method that records purchases and liabilities at gross amount at the time of
purchase the discount is recognized when paid within the discount period.

Not Taken is a method that records purchase and liabilities at net amount at the time of
purchase as the discount is recognized immediately but recognize it as a loss
(Purchase Discount Loss) if payment is beyond the discount period.

Offered is a method that records purchase is recognized at a net amount and the
liabilities at gross amount and recognize the discount in the allowance for purchase
discount at the time of purchase. When payment is made within the discount period
then the allowance is closed and the amount paid is net amount but recognize it as a
loss (Purchase Discount Loss) if payment is beyond the discount period.

Essential Knowledge

To perform the aforesaid big picture (unit learning outcomes), you need to fully
understand the following essential knowledge laid down in the succeeding pages.
Please note that you are not limited to exclusively refer to these resources. Thus, you
are expected to utilize other books, research articles and other resources that are
available in the university’s library e.g. ebrary, search.proquest.com etc., and even
online tutorial websites.

Control Procedures

A good system is important for a company to achieve this, a company should keep the
costs at a minimum level, smooth and uninterruptible schedule. The following concept
should employed in an inventory control system.

Inventory is a result of transaction from purchase and production of goods and reduction
of inventory is the result of normal use and scrapping unneeded items.

The inventory investment is optimized based on quantitative techniques is the


minimization of the carrying cost and ordering costs of inventory. Accurate forecast of
sales and resulting production schedule will result to an efficient purchasing,
management and investment in materials.

Controlling the inventory is really accomplished by scheduling production and forecast


help when to purchase materials. It is more than maintaining a records. Controls are
perform by person who are making judgements base on past experiences but within the
general framework of organizational objectives and policies to achieve them. The
expensive materials that are essential to the production will tend to have focus on
control and more frequently reviewed despite the cost and effort of doing so by
experienced personnel. Methods of inventory will vary dependent on the cost and the
importance of the material to the production. This controls encourages the reduction of
costs by eliminating waste and operational inefficiencies. The effective system is
designed to control the people responsible for expenses because cost don’t control
people but people control the costs.

Commonly Used Control Procedures

Order cycling this procedures uses the time interval to order additional materials. Such
as purchases are every 30th day or 60th day or 90th day. The cycle length depends on
the type of materials. This is used for small items.

Min-Max Method a control procedure that is based on the assumption of maximum and
minimum levels of materials inventory. Minimum level signals re order to increase the
level of inventory to maximum level and it protects from stock out.

Two-Bin Method is a method used for nonessential and inexpensive. In this method the
materials are divided into two separate bins. One bin is ready for used between an
order is received and the next order is places and the other bin is used between the
92
Department of Accounting Education
Mabini Street, Tagum City
Davao del Norte
Telefax: (084) 655-9591, Local 116

rime of ordering and delivery of materials. When 1 bin is empty and use for the
production

Automatic order system is a method used by computerized company that an order is


automatically placed when the level of inventory is at minimum level or the
predetermined order point quantity.

ABC Plan is a methods used by companies with a large number of materials. This uses
different types of method in a different classification of material inventory. This method
is used by expensive materials for production. This plan is a systematic way of grouping
materials into classification separately. Example inexpensive or not critical materials are
control under min-max method and the expensive and critical and a more sophisticated
method such as automatic order system may be used.

Material Control

Two basic aspect of materials control;


1. Physical Control or safeguarding materials
2. Control of the investment

Physical control of materials


Inventories are susceptible to theft and unauthorized use. Thus, inventories must be
protected same as marketable securities. In general effective physical control of
materials involves:
1. Limited access means that only the authorized personnel have access to
materials storage. The materials are issued only if the documents presented
are properly approved for issuance and release
2. Segregation of duties means that the functions should be segregated to
minimize the opportunity of misappropriation of inventories such as per
department purchasing, receiving, storage, use and recording. This
departments must be segregated from each other to eliminate or to manage
risk in the inventory.
3. Accuracy in recording means that the records should permit a correct
judgement and the records should be provide the data for the valuation of
inventories for the preparation of financial statements.

Controlling the investment in materials


The most important objective of control is to maintain the proper balance of materials on
hand as higher value of inventory on hand will also need higher cost and lower value of
inventory sometimes also have a negative effect as this will cause interruptions to your
production.

Order Point is the point in which the order should be place as this is the predetermined
minimum level of inventory on hand.
The calculation of order point needs the following data:
Usage is the anticipated level at which the material is used
Lead time is the estimated interval of time between placing an order and receipt of an
order.

93
Department of Accounting Education
Mabini Street, Tagum City

Telefax: (084) 655-9591, Local 116

Safety stock is the estimated level of inventory to protect from running out of stock or
stockout.
Example: The Company’s expected daily usage level of materials is 200 units the
anticipated lead time is 6 days and the estimated safety stock is 750 units. The order
point is 1,950 units.
200 units (daily usage) * 6 days (lead time) 1,200 units
Safety stock 750 units
Order point 1,950 units

Economic Order Quantity

The order or purchase that results to a minimum total cost by considering the carrying
cost and ordering costs.

Factors that are considered in determining ordering costs:


1. Employee benefits of purchasing, receiving and inspecting materials
2. Communication costs associated with ordering
3. Materials accounting and record keeping.

Factors that are considered in determining carrying costs:


1. Material storage and handling costs
2. Interest, Insurance and property taxes.
3. Loss due theft, deterioration or obsolescence.
4. Records and supplies associated with carrying the inventories.

The Company manufactures wooden chairs from the suppliers set. Total annual needs
are 10,000 units at a rate of 25 set per working day. The carrying cost per units is 200
pesos and 625 cost per order.

Two methods of accounting for spoiled materials

Charge to specific job

The spoilage relates to specific job directly so this would reduce the work in process
account. The amount is equal to the spoiled units multiplied by estimated sale value per
unit.
Spoiled Goods xxxxxx
Work In Process xxxxxx

Charge to all production

The method considers that the reason of spoilage as normal to the company. This is
considered normal as t does not exceed the limit set by the company. The spoiled
goods is equal to the number of spoiled units multiplied by the estimated sale value per
unit. The amount is credited to the work in process the total costs per unit multiplied by
spoiled units and the loss is recognized as part of the factory overhead control. If the
spoiled exceeds the limit set by the company then, it is not normal and the loss on
spoiled unts is charge to the loss account. Therefore, the unit cost per unit originally
charged will not increase anymore even there are spoiled units discovered later on.

b. Spoiled Goods (50*500) 25,000


Work in Process 25,000

c. Finished Goods 671,000


Work in Process 671,000

Start = 696,000/8,000 = P 87.00


Finished = 671,000/7,500 = 89.47

To compute for the difference of the start Cost and the finished cost.
89.47 - 87.00 = 2.47

Cost of spoiled goods 500*87 43,500


Less: Recovered amount from sale (500*50) 25,000
Loss on spoiled units 18,500

Then, the loss are absorbed by the good units = 18,500/7,500 = 2.47
Or
Total cost at the start – (Cost of the Finished Goods units / Goods units)

87.00 – (671,000/7,500)

Metalanguage
For you to demonstrate ULOg, you will need operational understanding of the terms
enumerated below.

Factory Overhead costs are those cost that are indirect to the production of products.

Variable factory overhead costs are indirect costs that will vary to the level of
production in the relevant range.

Fixed variable overhead costs are indirect cost that will remain constant as to total
even there are increase or decrease in production level within the relevant range.

Mixed factory overhead costs are those costs that are having the characteristics of
both variable and fixed factory overhead.

Budgeted factory overhead costs are costs for the planned production of the
company for the future period.

Essential Knowledge
To perform the aforesaid big picture (unit learning outcomes), you need to fully
understand the following essential knowledge laid down in the succeeding pages.
Please note that you are not limited to exclusively refer to these resources. Thus, you

FACTORY OVERHEAD

All cost incurred related to factory that are indirect cost. All the cost that are not direct
materials and direct labor is now considered as factory overhead.

There are three categories of factory overhead are:

Variable factory overhead cost is the cost that will vary directly as to the change in level
of production within the relevant range as to total, it means that the production
increases the total variable factory overhead variable cost will also increase but the
variable FOH cost per unit is constant and does not change as the level of production
changes.

Fixed factory overhead cost – cost that is constant as to total and does not vary whith
the changes in the level of production but in fixed FOH cost per unit, it vary inversely to
the production, means that the production increases the cost per unit will decrease and
vice versa.

Mixed factory overhead cost are cost that are partially fixed and partially variable in
nature and have characteristics of both fixed and variable. This cost must be separated
properly for the purpose of planning and control of the costs within the organization.

Budgeted Factory Overhead Costs are costs that are prepared for the plan of the
expected level of production. In order to create a flexible budget the separation of the
cost in the classification is a must.

COMPUTATION OF THE FACTORY OVERHEAD PREDETERMINED RATE


The basis are the following of the computation:

Physical output or the units produced –expressed in peso per unit

Estimated FOH

methods;

Metalanguage
For you to demonstrate ULOg, you will need operational understanding of the terms
enumerated below.

Departmental costs is the expenses related to a certain department that entrusted to


them to achieve their goals and objective.

Direct method is the method that allocates the costs of the manufacturing services
department directly to the production department of the company and to the product
itself

Step method is a method that allocates the cost of a service department to other
service departments in a sequential manner as well as to operating departments

Algebraic method is a method that the cost are allocated to each one of producing
and service departments and vice versa that’s why this is also known as reciprocal
method

Service department is part of the company that gives services to the whole company.

Producing department is a part of the company that is responsible of producing what


are to be produced and manufactured.

STEPS IN COMPUTING DEPARTMENTALIZED OVERHEAD RATE

Each company are divided intor segment that is also called departments or cost center
to which the expenditures are charge and allocated.

Reasons of allocating the cost to the departments:

a. To encourage operating departments to wisely use service department resources.


b. To provide operating departments with more complete cost data for making
decisions.
c. To help measure the profitability of operating departments.
d. To create incentive for service departments to operate efficiently.
e. To value inventory for external financial reporting purposes.
f. To include all overhead in the cost base when cost-plus pricing is used.

Selection of Allocation Bases

The allocation bases used should “drive” the cost being allocated. For example, when
allocating costs of the employee cafeteria, the number of meals served would be a good
choice for the allocation base.

There are 3 methods of allocating srvice department cost to producing departments

1. Direct Method
Service Departments Producing Departments

2. Step Method or Step Down Method, under this method the one of the service
department will give allocation to other service departments. The one who will be
allocated first is the one that renders the greatest service to the other departments.

Labor overhead is labor that is reported to the factory overhead. This is labor other
than direct and indirect.

Essential Knowledge
To perform the aforesaid big picture (unit learning outcomes), you need to fully
understand the following essential knowledge laid down in the succeeding pages.
Please note that you are not limited to exclusively refer to these resources. Thus, you
are expected to utilize other books, research articles and other resources that are

ACCOUNTING FOR LABOR

Labor are any physical or mental effort provided by employee, works or human
resources in producing the product. They are paid with employee benefit such as
compensation, salaries and wages and this payment may be hourly, daily, weekly,
biweekly, monthly, yearly or piece work basis. Wages are paid to production workers
and salaries are paid to managerial and clerical services.

Factory payroll are classified into direct labor and indirect labor. Direct Labor are cost
that are directly related to the production cost, while indirect labor are those cost that
are not directly attributed to the product.

The procedures of recording payroll cost.

 Recording the number of hours by total or by job, the quantity produced by


factory workers
 Determine and analyze the hours how time are used by the employee and how
this to be charge.
 Payroll cost are allocated to the job and factory overhead accounts
 Preparation of payroll including gross earning, total deductions and net earnings.

Wage Plan

The company uses different type of wages plans established by management and
approved by unions and comply with regulatory agencies.

Hourly-Rate Plan is a plan that each employee will be given a fix rate per hour and their
compensation will be computed by multiplying the number of hours and the fix rate per
hour. This does not provide incentive to employee during high productivity.

Piece-Rate Plan a plan that the company provide a fix rate per unit and of the earnings
are based on the output of the employee finished during the production. The earnings
shall be computed by the total output multiplied by the fixed rate per unit.

Modified Wage Plan a plan of the company to give a combines the features of Hourly-
Rate plan and Piece rate plan. The company will give fix amount of earnings to the
employee at the same time provides incentive for high level productivity or exceed the
quota.

Controlling Labor Cost

Maintaining a reliable record of labor is the responsibility of time-keeping department


and payroll department. Time-keeping department account the time spent by the
employee per job or in the organization and keeping the records from clock cards, time
ticket and production reports, while payroll department computes the compensation of
the employee and workers and they maintain records about payroll, employee earnings
and payroll summaries.
Accounting for Labor Cost

The labor costs is distributed to the appropriate accounts. The company should
segregate the overtime pay from regular employee time as the treatment of this pay is
different from each other. The overtime will earn an overtime premium, this premium will
be recorded as part of the factory overhead control account.

Example: Jose an employee that earn a regular rate of P 75.00 per hour for an 8-hour
duty. Jose partake 2 hours every day for 5 days in excess of the 8 hours and he will get
40% overtime premium form the excess time from the regular 8-hours duty. He will be
paid weekly
Computation:
Direct Labor (8 * P 75.00 * 5) = 3,000

SSS Contribution is a statutory deduction for an employee that is contributed to the
Social Security system for monthly pension at the time of retirement and death benefits
and loans (housing, calamity, educational, maternity, fraternity and other loans).

Pag-Ibig Contribution is also a statutory deduction that should be according to the


table of payment. Upon retirement the amount returned to the employee will be the
contribution of the employee and employer plus accumulated dividends

Classification of Labor

Direct labor – labor that are feasible to be measured and directly identified and charge
to the production of the products.

Indirect labor – labor that are feasible but cannot be charge and identify directly to the
production of the products. This will benefit the production, in general.

Labor Overhead

Waiting time – is non-productive hours of employees and workers due to lack of work,
materials delay, machine breakdown and machine set-up the amount paid to the
employee due to this reason shall be recognized in the factory overhead accounts.
Example the company is setting up the machine for the new manufacturing process and
it take two hours to set up then, Jose is an employee who is affected by the set up and
paid 100 per hour for 8 hours a day. In his weekly payroll the journal entry is:
Work in Process (8 * 5 = 40 – 2 = 38 * 100) 3,800
Factory Overhead Control*** (2 * 100) 200
Payroll 4,000
***the two hour set up time

Make-up pay – the employee are paid based on the number of units produced are at a
“piecework” compensation plan. The employee is given a minimum wages but they can
earn if they can produced more. Thus, the minimum pay guarantees them salary. If the
employee has P 5,000 minimum wages and his rate is P 200 pesos per piece of output
and for the payroll period he finished 23 units. Thus, his pay based on the piecework is
P 4,600 but he will receive P 5,000 as the minimum wages, so the difference of P 400 is
known as the make-up pay and charge to the factory overhead.
The journal entry would be:
Work in Process 4,600
Factory Overhead Control 400
Payroll 5,000

And if the employee produce 29 units of output thus, the payment received by the
employee is 5,800 (29*200). Then in this situation there is no make-up pay.
The journal entry would be:
Work in Process 5,800
Payroll 5,800
And if the employee produce 25 units of output thus, the payment received by the
employee, since the minimum wage is equal to the actual pay, then no make-up pay is
given. The journal entry would be:
Work in Process 5,000
Payroll 5,000

Overtime premium – an amount paid in excess of the regular time of work.

Example: Princess is an evening shift that earns P 400 per day for 8-hour duty and 50%
is given for an overtime premium. She render 3 hours overtime in Monday, Wednesday
and Friday. She is paid weekly and work 5 days in a week. The journal entry and
computation is as follows:

Work in process (50 * 49) 2,450


Factory Overhead Control (50 * 50% * 9) 225
Payroll 2,675

400/8 = 50 per hour


8 * 5 = 40 hours and 3 * 3 = 9 overtime ; 40+9 = 49 total hours

125

Shift premium – an extra pay for the employee, who work during evening or evening
shift or night shift. This shift or differential premium is charge to factory overhead.
Assume that Princess is an evening shift that earns P 400 per day for 8-hour duty and
P 100 differential pay. She is paid weekly and work 5 days in a week. The journal entry
and computation is as follows:

Work in Process (400 * 5) 2,000


Factory Overhead Control (100 * 5) 500
Accrued Payroll 2,500

Employer’s payroll taxes – the share of the employer from the statutory deduction that
is remitted to the SSS premiums, PhilHealth contributions and Pag-Ibig contributions.

Big Picture in Focus: ULOg. Compute for the product cost using process
costing system by preparing cost of production report.

Metalanguage
For you to demonstrate ULOg, you will need operational understanding of the terms
enumerated below.

Process Costing is a term used in to describe a method for collecting and assigning
manufacturing costs to the units produced and used for processing identical products.

Cost of Production Report a report that summarizes the production and cost activity
within a department for a reporting period. It is simply a formal summary of the four
steps performed to assign costs to units transferred out and units in ending work-in-
process (WIP) inventory.

Essential Knowledge
To perform the aforesaid big picture (unit learning outcomes), you need to fully
understand the following essential knowledge laid down in the succeeding pages.
Please note that you are not limited to exclusively refer to these resources. Thus, you
are expected to utilize other books, research articles and other resources that are
available in the university’s library e.g. ebrary, search.proquest.com etc., and even
online tutorial websites.

PROCESS COSTING

Costs incurred in this system are allocated during the period. The cost is summarized
on the cost of production report and one report per department for the period of time.
The cost is allocated to the work in process, end and units completed and transferred or
the finished goods. The cost per unit will increase as the product will approaching to the
end of the process as the cost per department is added.

The cost are computed as follow: if the cost of cutting department is P 25.00 per unit,
assembly department is P 20.00 per unit, furnishing department is P 35.00 per unit and
finishing department is P 24.00 per unit.

Product Flow

The production process will flow through the factory in the three different ways.

1. Sequential product flow – the process starts in the first department and every other
department must be finished first before other department started.

Department 1

Department 2

Departmetn 3

Department 4

2. Parallel product flow – in this process two departments will start at the same time
and meet or combined in one process.

THE COSTS OF PRODUCTION REPORT

All costs are chargeable to a department are presented according to the cost elements.
The cost are determine by presenting this report as this is the analysis of the activity in
the department for the period. The following steps must be followed in presenting and
preparing cost of production report.

Step 1 – The quantity schedule

This presents the physical flow of the units into and out of departments and all the units
started in the department must be accounted for. This schedule is concern only with the
whole units and not considering the stage of completion.

Step 2 – Calculate Equivalent Units and Unit Costs

Not all units are not usually completed thus, there are still units that are still in process
and varying stage of completion at the end of the period. The equivalent unit of
production is equal to the restatement of the completed unit in the work in process, end
and the completed unit. The completed units are not a problem. The problem is the
restatement of incomplete units in terms of completed unit. The incomplete units is
accounted for as work in process inventory, end.

Step 3 – determine the costs to be accounted for (cost charge to the department)

The cost of the beginning work in process is the combination of direct materials, direct
labor and factory overhead that were assigned from the last period that must be
accounted for. If the department is not the first department of the process then the
department will receive units from previous department from there as the units receive
the cost from the previous department is also received accordingly. The department

132
Department of Accounting Education
Mabini Street, Tagum City
Davao del Norte
Telefax: (084) 655-9591, Local 116

also incur costs from material, labor and factory overhead in its own processing. The
total of this costs must be determined and that composes the total cost of the product.

Step 4 – Account for all cost

The cost now is allocated to the completed and transferred, work in process, end and
lost if there is any. The cost for the completed units will be charge to the next
department, and the remaining cost will be allocated to either the work in process, end
and the lost units if there is any.

Methods of Application of Elements of Cost to Production

Even application – the introduction of the three elements of the product cost are evenly
introduce in the process. Thus, one equivalent production is computed.

Uneven application – the elements are introduce to any stage of the process hence,
many computation of equivalent production is computed as the elements are applied to
the production not equal.

Computation of Equivalent Production


1. Units received from preceding department 15,000 units
Units Completed and Transferred 12,000 units
Units in process, end (60% completed) 3,000 units
Materials are added 100% at the beginning of the process

15,000 15,000 13,800

As you observe the materials are 100% work done in either units completed or units in
process. This is the result as the materials are added to the process at the beginning.

the end. The units in process are still in 60% means that it does not approach to the end
of the process, so the material is none.

3. Same date as number but this time the materials are added in the following stage
of the process.
20% completed = 50% of the materials
80% completed = 50% of the materials

Solution: Materials Labor and Overhead

15,000 13,500 13,800
As you observe the materials are 100% work done in the units completed and 50% work
done in units in process. This is the result as the 50% of the materials are added to the
process when the units are 20% completed and the other 50% is added to the process
when the units are 80% completed. Therefore, 50% is the work done is applied to the
units in process.

4. Same date as number but this time the materials are added in the following stage
of the process.
At the beginning of the process = 50% of the materials
50% completed = 30% of the materials
At the end of the process = the remaining materials

Solution: Materials Labor and Overhead

As you observe the materials 80% work done in units in process. This is the result when
the 50% of the materials are added at the beginning of the process, another 30% will be
added when the units are 50% completed and the remaining 20% are added at the end
of the process. Therefore, 80% work done of material applied to the units in process.

The scrap and defective units are accounted the same as the accounting in job order
costing. The cost to rework is normally charge to factory overhead control account
rather than work in process because usually the defective unit is a result of internal
failure rather than customer’s specifications. The units are classified as lost in a process
costing is the same accounting of the spoiled under job order costing. During the quality
control inspection, when lost are discovered the lost are removed from the process as
this is discovered with imperfections.

NORMAL/ABNORMAL LOSS

Normal loss is an expected loss of the company; while abnormal loss is the loss beyond
the expected loss of the company. The cost of normal lost is charged to product cost as
they become part of the finished goods. While cost of the abnormal lost is recognized in
the factory overhead cost.

A. The cost of the normal lost units is charged to completed units and units in process
at the end, when normal lost are discovered

1. At the beginning
2. During the process and no quality control inspection is indicated
3. At the end of the process

B. The cost of the abnormal lost units is charged to loss account or factory overhead,
when abnormal lost are discovered
1. At the beginning
2. During the process with the point of discovery stated in the problem
3. At the end of the process

Suggestions of procedures in calculating equivalent units of production for normal lost


units

A1 and A2
a. Do not assign work done to the lost units; and
b. Adjust the unit cost from the preceding department due to decrease in number of
units.
c. The cost of the normal lost are automatically charge to both completed units and
units in process, end due to above procedures.
A3
a. Assign work done to the lost units; and
b. No need to adjust the unit cost from the preceding department despite of the lost
units.
c. The cost of the lost units are calculated and added to the cost of the completed
units.

B1
a. Do not assign work done to the lost units; and
b. Cost from the preceding department will be charge to factory overhead.

B1
a. Assign work done to the lost units; and
b. The cost of the abnormal lost units is charge as an abnormal loss and debited to
the factory overhead control.

Computation of equivalent units of production for abnormal lost units is as follows:

a. The cost from the preceding department of the abnormal lost is charge as
abnormal loss, if the lost is discovered at the beginning of the process.
b. The cost of abnormal lost is charged to factory overhead control if the lost is
discovered at any other points in the process with or without inspection point.

Let’s Analyze!
The Dark Delectables Company has two processing departments, Cooking and
Packaging. Ingredients are placed into production at the beginning of the process in
Cooking, where they are formed into various shapes. When finished, they are
transferred into Packaging, where the candy is placed into heart and tuxedo boxes and
covered with foil. All material added in Packaging is considered as one material for
convenience. Since the boxes contain a variety of candies, they are considered partially
complete until filled with the appropriate assortment. The following information relates to
the cooking departments for February 2020:

Units started this period 19,500 Units


Units completed and transferred 19,000 Units
Ending WIP (60% complete as to conversion) 500 Units

a. Compute for the product cost using process costing system by


preparing cost of production report considering the effect of beginning
work in process inventory using FIFO and Average method of
computing the product under process costing system;

Big Picture in Focus: ULOa. Compute for the product cost using process
costing system by preparing cost of production report considering the effect
of beginning work in process inventory using FIFO and Average method of
computing the product under process costing system;

Metalanguage
For you to demonstrate ULOa, you will need operational understanding of the terms
enumerated below.

FIFO Method is the method of first in, first out consideration

Average Method is the method of computing cost and units in average format and not
consider the concept of which is first in and which is first out.
Essential Knowledge
To perform the aforesaid big picture (unit learning outcomes), you need to fully
understand the following essential knowledge laid down in the succeeding pages.
Please note that you are not limited to exclusively refer to these resources. Thus, you
are expected to utilize other books, research articles and other resources that are
available in the university’s library e.g. ebrary, search.proquest.com etc., and even
online tutorial websites.

METHODS OF COSTING IN PROCESS COSTING SYSTEM

FIFO METHOD

146
Department of Accounting Education
Mabini Street, Tagum City
Davao del Norte
Telefax: (084) 655-9591, Local 116

The method that assumes the flow of production that the units first placed in the process
is presumed to be the completed first and those that are first completed are those first
transferred out.

Under this method, the work in process beginning will require a separate computation of
equivalent unit of production and the units started, completed and transferred is will also
have separate computations of equivalent units of production.

The equivalent unit of production of this period shall consist only of those that
completed this period and the completed last period is recorded last period.

Example if the product is 70% completed last period. The 70% is recorded as work
done last period so, how many percentage do we need to complete the product? Yes,
30% then the 30% completion is recorded as work done this period.

The unit cost are computed by current period product cost divided by the equivalent
units of current work done.

The cost of goods transferred out is computed as the sum of the following:
a. The cost in beginning work in process inventory
b. The current period cost to complete beginning inventory, computed by the
equivalent unit of production of the beginning work in process multiplied by
the current period unit cost
c. The cost to start and complete units, calculated by number of units multiplied
by the current cost computed

The cost of work in process ending is computed by multiplying the equivalent units of
production by the current product cost per unit.

AVERAGE METHOD

The method the merges all the departmental costs by elements of the beginning work in
process and cost incurred for the period an getting the average units cost by dividing
the total cost by elements tot equivalent units of production.

Under this method, the computation of equivalent units of production from the beginning
work in process is ignored and the total units completed and transferred are considered
to be 100% completed.

The equivalent unit of production of this period does not consider or ignore the work
done last month in computing equivalent unit of production.

The unit cost are computed as follows cost of the beginning work in process added to
the current period product cost divided by the sum of equivalent units of production of
the beginning work in process and the equivalent units of the current work done.

The cost of goods transferred out and the cost of work in process ending is computed
as follows: total units transferred multiply by the weighted average unit cost.

147
Department of Accounting Education
Mabini Street, Tagum City

The cost of work in process, ending is equal to the equivalent units of production
multiplied by the weighted average unit cost.

________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________

II. True or False

1. To calculate weighted-average equivalent production you do not need to


know the number of units in the beginning inventory.
2. Equivalent production calculated using FIFO is higher than equivalent
production calculated using weighted average.
3. If a company has no inventories, the weighted-average approach and the
FIFO approach will result in the same income.
4. Although weighted average and FIFO may give different values for inventory,
the resulting income will always be the same.
5. When the beginning work in process inventory is zero, the peso amounts
assigned to units transferred out under FIFO and weighted-average method
is equal.

III. Multiple choice

1. Which of the following is NOT relevant in determining weighted-average unit


cost in process costing?
a. Cost of beginning inventory.
b. Equivalent unit production in beginning inventory.
c. Equivalent unit production in ending inventory.
