Question 2

Equivalent units of production in the first quarter Under the Weighted average units Cost inventory valuation method

Answer 2

1) Complete the equivalent units of production
2) Compute the unit cost of production
3) Apply the equivalent units to the ending inventory
Units completed+ Completed portion of WIP
PROOF is BASE

Question 3

Under FIFO method

Answer 3

Under FIFO method The equivalent units is compromised of three parts:
The completion of units of hand at the beginning of the period
The units started and completed during the period and the units partially completed at the end of the period.

Question 4

The basic assumption of ABC costing is

Answer 4

Products or services require the performance of activities, and activities consume resources

Question 5

Cost of goods sold for November is

Answer 5

Beginning blance of finished goods
Plus goods transferred to finished goods
————————————————————-
Finished Goods Available
COGS(Squeeze)
———————————————————–
Ending finished goods

Question 6

Goods Transferred to Finished goods

Answer 6

Beginning bal of WIP
Plus total manufacturing cost
———————————————————–
Goods available to transfer
Goods transferred to finished goods(Squeeze)
————————————————————–
Ending Balance of WIP
—————————————————-

Question 7

Under Weighted Average method what are the equivalent units

Answer 7

Units completed+ Ending WIP*Percentage completed

Question 8

Treatment of normal and abnormal spoilage

Answer 8

Normal spoilage is inventoriable cost that is add to cost of inventory and abnormal spoilage is period cost that is expense it

Question 9

ABC Costing

Answer 9

Multiple cause and effect releationships

Question 10

To calculate the equivalent Units of production

Answer 10

The difference is how you treat the opening inventory and closing inventory opening inventory if they ask just the Total equivalent units of production
Work in process if given 60% then take 40% for calculation
Work in process
Given * 40 % to complete
Units started and completed:
Units completed and transferred out-
Units in beginning inventory ()
Add workin process at end
Equivalent units of production

Question 11

Conversion cost unit of inventory

Answer 11

In the closing inventory take the percentage of COnversion cost inventory

Question 12

Engineered cost

Answer 12

Fixed cost that bears an observable and known releationship to a quantifiable activity base

Question 13

Target Cost

Answer 13

Is carefully predetermined standard cost

Question 14

process costing

Answer 14

is a method of allocating production costs to products and services by averaging the cost over the total units produced. Costs are usually accumulated by department rather than job

Question 15

Operation costing

Answer 15

is a hybrid system that allows the company to use job order product costing for some costs of production process costing for others

Question 16

Activity costing

Answer 16

ABC costing is a system that accumulates all costs of overhead for each of the activities for the organization then allocate those activity cost to the cots objects that caused the activity
Activity based costing is an accounting system that collects financial and operating data on the underlying nature and extent of cost drivers.

Question 17

Revolution occurring in cost accounting

Answer 17

Using cost drivers as application bases to increase the accuracy of reported product costs.
Using throughput time as an application base to increase awareness of the costs associated with legthned throughput time
Using several machine cost pools to measure product costs on the basis of time in a machine center

Question 18

Overapplied overhead

Answer 18

overhead overapplied occurs when the amount of overhead applies exceeds the actual amount of overhead incurred

Question 19

Plant wide rate

Answer 19

plant wide rates will propably be used if manufacturing operations are all automated, basically labor based, if manufacturing overhead is the largest component of the product

Question 20

Direct costing or variable or marginal costing

Answer 20

capitalizes only the variable production costs to inventory when fixed cost are expensed

Question 21

relevant cost

Answer 21

Relevant costs are costs which are relevant to a particular decision

Question 22

product cost

Answer 22

Product cost is assigned to goods that were either purchased or manufactured for resale

Question 23
