Exam 12: Job-Order, Process, and Hybrid Costing Systems

Select the correct formula for computing equivalent units for the period under the weighted average approach.

Indicate whether each of the following statements about process costing systems is true or false.The use of a predetermined overhead rate is not required with process costing because the method calculates an average unit cost.When manufacturing overhead is applied to units of product, total assets do not change.For Morris Company, the cost per equivalent whole unit was $3.58. If the ending work in process was 8,000 units 85% complete, the total cost assigned to these units would be $28,640.A company with three processing departments generally would calculate a cost per equivalent whole unit for each department.With a process costing system, a company will not have to deal with underapplied or overapplied overhead.

In a job-order cost system, the inventory accounts generally are maintained on a perpetual basis.

Job-order cost systems are used by many service businesses; process cost systems are not applicable to service businesses.
