If 1,800 units were started and there were 200 units in beginning inventory and 400 units in ending inventory,then the number of units completed is 1,600.The number of beginning units in process (200)plus the number of units started (1,800)should equal the number of units completed (1,600)plus the number of ending units in process (400).

For units that are completed and transferred out in a firm that uses the weighted average method of process costing,


A) the number of units that came from beginning inventory is the same as the number of units that were started during the period.
B) the number of equivalent units for direct materials is the same as the number of equivalent units for conversion cost.
C) the number of equivalent units is less than the number of physical units.
D) the number of equivalent units is more than the number of physical units.

For a process costing firm,one could calculate the cost of beginning inventory in which of the following ways?


A) (Equivalent units × cost per equivalent unit) - current costs
B) Current costs - (equivalent units × cost per equivalent unit)

Equivalent units are kept separate for what two categories?


A) Direct labor and manufacturing overhead.
B) Direct materials and conversion cost.
C) Direct materials and indirect materials.
D) Finished goods and cost of goods solD.Direct materials and conversion costs have different percentages of completion,so equivalent units are calculated separately for each of the two categories.

Heathcoat Co.uses process costing to account for the production of canned vegetables.Direct materials are added at the beginning of the process and conversion costs are incurred uniformly throughout the process.Beginning inventory consisted of $7,000 in materials and $4,000 in conversion costs.April costs were $36,000 for materials and $40,000 for conversion costs.On April 1,there were 2,000 units in beginning inventory (80% complete) .During April 10,000 units were completed.Ending in process inventory was 4,000 units (100% complete for materials,40% for conversion) .The cost per equivalent unit for materials using the FIFO method would be


A) $0.9167
B) $3.0000
C) $3.5833
D) $7.2500

For a firm using the weighted average method of process costing,it would not be necessary to translate physical units into equivalent units if


A) the FIFO method were used instead.
B) direct materials were all added at the beginning of the process.
C) direct labor and manufacturing overhead were combined into a single category called conversion costs.
D) all units worked on during the period were completed during the perioD.Equivalent units = physical units × percentage of completion.If all units were 100% complete,equivalent units would equal physical units.
