CHAPTER 6
DISCUSSION QUESTIONS
Q6-1. The basic objective of process costing is to

determine the costs of the products manufactured by the company. Determining the cost of
the products manufactured is necessary in
order to properly cost ending inventories for
external reporting purposes (i.e., reporting to
creditors and owners of the company, the
SEC, and the IRS) and to evaluate the profitability of the manufacturing activity. In order
to cost products, the costs must be determined for materials, labor, and factory overhead used to process each unit of product
through each department.
Q6-2. The products manufactured within a department (or cost center) during the period can be
heterogeneous if job order costing is used,
but must be homogeneous if process costing
is used. In job order costing, products are
accounted for in batches. The cost of each
unit of product manufactured on a job is determined by dividing the total cost charged to the
job by the number of units produced on the
job. Since the manufacturing cost of each job
is accounted for separately, accurate and
useful product cost can be determined even
when the products manufactured on different
jobs are substantially different. By contrast, in
process costing, all manufacturing costs are
charged to the department, and the unit cost
is determined by dividing the cost charged to
the department by the number of units produced. As a consequence, the units of product manufactured within a department must
be essentially alike in order for the cost allocated to each unit to be meaningful (i.e., to
reasonably reflect the actual cost of the
resources used to manufacture the product).
Q6-3. (a) Process
(b) Process, unless significantly different
models are manufactured
(c) Process
(d) Job order
(e) Process
(f) Process
(g) Job order
(h) Process, unless different fabrics are used

for different models, in which case the
conversion costs may be accounted for
using process, but the materials using job
order
Q6-4. Three product flow formats are: sequential,
parallel, and selective.
Sequential means that the product flows or is
manufactured in an unchanging fixed set of
operations, going from one department to the
next.
Parallel means that certain operational
phases take place simultaneously in other
departments and the partially completed units
or parts are brought together in subsequent
departments.
Selective refers to the fact that a product does
not necessarily move through every department. Depending upon the character or shape
of the final product, different departments are
engaged in completing the desired product.
Q6-5. Materials CostsIn job order costing, materials requisitions are used and charges are
made to jobs; in process costing, charges for
materials issued to production are made to
departments, with infrequent use of materials
requisitions.
Labor CostsTime tickets are used in job
order costing to accumulate labor costs for
each job; in process costing, labor costs are
charged to departments, and, therefore,
detailed time records are not necessary.
Factory OverheadJob order costing
requires the use of predetermined rates for
charging overhead to jobs; in process costing,
actual overhead may be used. (However, predetermined rates are often used in order to
smooth overhead that is not incurred at the
same rate as production activity.)
Summarizing CostsA job order cost sheet is
used to accumulate the costs of an order in job
order costing; a cost of production report is
used in process costing. In job order costing,
costs are summarized on completion of the
job; in process costing, costs charged to the
6-1
6-2
department and costs accounted for are summarized in the cost of production report each
month (or sometimes each week).
Q6-6. Predetermined overhead rates can and
should be used if the pattern of overhead cost
incurrence does not follow the pattern of production activity. Some items of overhead are
fixed and not responsive to changes in production activity. If production volume varies each
month, then predetermined overhead rates
should be used. Some items of overhead are
incurred only at certain times during the year,
but benefit production throughout the year
(e.g., payroll taxes, insurance, property taxes,
vacation pay, etc.). These items can be
recorded as prepaid expenses and amortized
uniformly to each month if actual overhead is
charged to production. Alternatively, estimates
of such costs can be included in the predetermined overhead rate, and the actual cost
charged to overhead when incurred. The use
of predetermined rates is often simpler than
the allocation of actual costs because a single
predetermined rate requires only one overhead charge to each department each month.
In contrast, the capitalization and amortization of each item of actual overhead would
require numerous charges each month.
Q6-7. A cost of production report is an effective
monthly (or weekly) summary of the cost of
materials, labor, and overhead consumed by
each department or cost center, along with a
record of the quantity of products manufactured.
It provides information necessary to cost
Chapter 6
products, prepare journal entries to record the

transfer of costs between departments, and
control costs.
Q6-8. The sections commonly found in a cost of production report are: (a) a quantity schedule
indicating the source and disposition of the
units of product, (b) a cost charged to the
department section, indicating the cost in total
and per unit for the cost transferred in from
the preceding department, as well as materials, labor and overhead charged to the
department, and (c) a cost accounted for section indicating the amount of cost assigned to
the units transferred out of the department, as
well as the cost of ending inventory.
Q6-9. Separate departmental cost of production
reports are used to accumulate costs more
accurately and to provide more detailed data
for cost control purposes than a plant-wide
cost of production report could provide. In
some cases (e.g., a manufacturing plant that
has a selective production flow for its products), a plant-wide cost of production report
cannot be used.
Q6-10. An equivalent unit of production is the amount
of a resource (e.g., materials, labor, or overhead) that would be required to complete one
unit of the product with respect to the cost element being considered. The total number of
equivalent units, with respect to a particular
element of cost, represents the number of
units of the product that could have been
completed with the resources used during the
period.
