PROCESS COSTING – FIFO METHOD:
Module 1
EVEN & UNEVEN APPLICATION OF COST

LECTURE NOTES

⮚ TWO BASIC PRODUCT-COSTING SYSTEMS


1. Job Order Costing – a system for allocating costs to groups of unique products. It is
applicable to the production of customer specified products such as the
manufacture of special machines. Each job becomes a cost center for which costs
are accumulated.

2. Process Costing – a system applicable to a continuous process of production of the


same or similar goods, e.g., oil refining and chemical production. Since there is no
need to determine the costs of different groups of products because the product is
uniform, each processing department becomes a cost center.

⮚ PROCESS COSTING METHODS ARE USED BY THE FOLLOWING:


1. Industries producing chemicals, petroleum, textiles, steel, rubber, cement, flour,
pharmaceuticals, shoes, plastics, sugar, and coal.
2. Firms manufacturing items such as rivets, screws, bolts, and small electrical parts.
3. Assembly-type industry which manufactures typewriters, automobiles, airplanes, and
household electric appliances.
4. Service industries such as gas, water and heat.

⮚ CHARACTERISTICS OF PROCESS COSTING:


1. Costs are accumulated by department or cost center.
2. Each department has its own general ledger Work in Process Inventory account.
3. Equivalent units are used to restate work in process inventory to terms of completed
units at the end of the period.
4. Completed units and their corresponding costs are transferred to the last department
and then to finished goods inventory.
5. Total costs and unit costs for each department are periodically calculated and
analyzed with the use of department cost of production report.

⮚ COMPARISON OF JOB ORDER COSTING AND PROCESS COSTING

Job Order Costing Process Costing


1. Unique jobs are worked on during a time 1. Homogenous units pass through a series of similar
period. processes.
2. Costs are accumulated by individual job. 2. Costs are accumulated by processing
department.
3. Unit costs are determined by dividing the 3. Unit costs are computed by dividing the
total costs on the job cost sheet by the individual departments’ costs by the equivalent
number of units on the job. production
4. The job cost sheet provides the detail for the 4. The cost of production report provides the detail
Work in Process account. for the Work in Process account for each
department.

⮚ ACCOUNTING PROCEDURES – JOURNAL ENTRIES UNDER BOTH COSTING SYSTEM
TRANSACTIONS JOB ORDER COSTING PROCESS COSTING
(Assuming there are 3 jobs or
departments)
1. Issuance of Direct Materials,
P100,000:
Job/Department 1 – 40,000
Job/Department 2 – 30,000
Job/Department 3 – 20,000
Indirect Materials – 10,000

2. Distribution of Labor, P200,000:

Job/Department 1 – 90,000
Job/Department 2 – 60,000
Job/Department 3 – 30,000
Indirect Labor – 20,000

3. FOH charged to production,


50% of Direct Labor

4. Transfer of Goods Completed:


● For Job Order Costing: Assuming
Jobs 1 and 2 are completed
● For Process Costing: Assuming the
units placed in process is 10,000
units, all are completed from
Department 1 to Department 3.

5. Sale of Finished Goods:


● For Job Order Costing: Job 1 is sold
at 50% mark-up based on cost.
● For Process Costing: Assuming 8,000
units are sold at P50 per unit.

⮚ METHODS OF COSTING UNDER PROCESS COSTING


1. FIFO Method – Under this method, it is considered that those units which are first placed in process
are presumed to be the first ones completed and those that are first completed are presumed
to be the first ones transferred out.

Characteristics:
● The work in process beginning in the department will require a separate computation for
equivalent production.
● The units started, completed and transferred will have its own computation for equivalent
production

2. Weighted Average Method – Under this method, there is no assumed flow of manufacturing
operations. (to be further discussed after FIFO)

⮚ METHODS OF APPLICATION
1. Even Application – Under this method, it is considered that at any stage of during the process of
production, the introduction of the three elements of cost are equal with one another. Only one
computation of equivalent production should be made.

2. Uneven Application – Under this method, the introduction of the elements of cost to production
varies at any stage of the process, hence, there should be as many computations of equivalent
production as the elements of cost that are unevenly applied.

EQUIVALENT UNITS OF PRODUCTION – FIFO METHOD
