CHAPTER 6
JOB ORDER AND PROCESS COSTING

QUESTIONS FOR WRITING AND DISCUSSION
1. Job-order costing accumulates costs by
jobs, and process costing accumulates costs
by processes. Job-order costing is suitable
for operations that produce custom-made
products that receive different doses of
manufacturing costs. Process costing, on
the other hand, is suitable for operations that
produce homogeneous products that receive
equal doses of manufacturing costs in each
process.
2. More paperwork is required. Labor and materials are assigned to departments in a
process-costing system. In a job-order costing system, labor and materials must be
tracked to each job, requiring time tickets
and more use of materials requisitions. Additionally, a job-order costing system requires
a separate job-order cost sheet for each job.
3. Job-order costing is appropriate for many
service firms. The key factor is that differing
amounts of resources must be used for different jobs. Examples of service firms that
use job-order costing are law firms, accounting firms, dentists, automobile repair, and
architectural firms.
4. Unless all your jobs (lawns) are the same
size and require the same services, you will
need to use a job-order costing system. At
minimum, you will need job-order cost
sheets for each customer. You will need labor time tickets to record the amount of time
spent on each job, both to cost the job and
to pay the individual doing the work. A materials requisition form may be needed if fertilizer or weed control products are used (alternatively, it may be possible to just list the
amount of product used directly on the joborder cost sheet). The more complicated
your business becomes (e.g., mowing,
trimming, fertilizing, trimming shrubbery, and
planting shrubs and trees), the more source
documents will be needed to keep track of
time, materials, and use of capital equipment (e.g., trimmers and brushhogs).
5. The cost of a job is often strongly related to
the price charged. Logically enough, the
higher the cost of the job, the higher the
price charged to the customer. This relation-
145
ship makes sense not only to the business

but also to the customer. By comparing the
cost of the individual job with the price
charged, the firm can determine the profit attributable to each job. Then, the firm can decide whether the profit is sufficient to continue offering the product or service under the
current terms.
6. Materials requisition forms serve as the
source documents for posting materials
usage and costs to individual jobs. Time or
work tickets serve a similar function for labor. Predetermined overhead rates are used
to allocate overhead to jobs.
7. In sequential processing, products pass
through a series of processes, one after
another (i.e., in a given sequence). In parallel processing, products pass through two or
more different sequences at the same time,
merging eventually at the final process.
8. Equivalent units are the number of whole
units that could have been produced, given
the amount of materials, labor, and overhead used. Equivalent units are the measure of a periods output, a necessary input
for the computation of unit costs in a
process-costing system.
9. In calculating this periods unit cost, the
weighted average method treats prior-period
output and costs carried over to the current
period as belonging to the current period.
The FIFO method excludes any costs and
output carried over from this periods unit
cost computation.
10. If the per-unit cost of the prior period is the
same as the per-unit cost of the current period, there will be no difference between the
results of the weighted average and FIFO
methods. Additionally, if no beginning workin-process inventory exists, both the FIFO
and weighted average methods give the
same results.
11. Separate equivalent units must be calculated for materials and conversion costs.
12. Transferred-in units represent partially completed units and are clearly a material for the
receiving department. To complete the

product (or further process it), additional materials and conversion costs are added by
the receiving department.
13. The work-in-process account of the receiving department is debited, and the work-inprocess account of the transferring department is credited. The finished goods account is debited, and the work-in-process
account of the final department is credited
upon completion of the product.
14.
The first step is the preparation of a physical

flow schedule. This schedule identifies the
physical units that must be accounted for
and provides an accounting. The second
step is the equivalent unit schedule. This
schedule computes the equivalent whole
output for the period. The schedules computations rely on information from the physical flow schedule. The next step is computation of the unit cost. To compute the unit
cost, the manufacturing costs of the period
for the process are divided by the periods
output. The output is obtained from the
equivalent unit schedule. The fourth step
146
uses the unit cost to value goods transferred

out and those remaining in work in process.
The final step checks to see if the costs assigned in step 4 equal the total costs to account for.
15.
The weighted average method uses the

same unit cost for all goods transferred out.
The FIFO method divides goods transferred
out into two categories: units started and
completed and units from beginning work in
process. The periods unit cost is used to
value goods started and completed. The
cost of goods transferred out from beginning
work in process is obtained by (1) assigning
them all costs carried over from the prior period and (2) using the current periods unit
cost to value the equivalent units completed
this period.
16.
Service firms generally do not have work-inprocess inventories, and so equivalent units
of production are not needed. An important
factor in process costing for services is determining just what constitutes a unit of output.

Auto manufacturing: A job-order example might be Rolls Royce, in which the

cars are made to order. A process-costing example might be Ford Motor
Company.
Dental services: A job-order example might be a local, full-service dentist. A
process-costing example might be a denturist (someone who makes only
dentures).
Auto repair: A job-order example might be a local mechanic or the service
department of an automobile dealership. A process-costing example might be
a shop that is dedicated to oil changes.
Costume making: A job-order example might be a local seamstress who will
make the costumes for children in a junior high school play. A processcosting example might be a firm dedicated to the manufacture of dance costumes that are sold nationwide. The designs are preset.

Jordan would need to prepare a simple form that included columns for the
date, the beginning time, the ending time, the total number of hours worked,
and the job name (or number). She could have a separate page for each day.
This would be especially helpful if she hired other employees from time to
time to work on jobs.

Overhead rate = $270/$900 = 0.30 or 30% of direct labor dollars.

(This rate was calculated using information from the Fazel job; however, the
Myron and Patton jobs would give the same answer.)

prefer to keep the detail on the materials, labor, and overhead in beginning
inventory costs.

Since the Fazel and Myron jobs were completed, the others must still be in
process. Therefore, the ending balance in Work in Process is the sum of the
costs of the Patton, Raider, and Willis jobs.

The activity-based approach to assigning overhead gives a more accurate

cost figure because so much of the overhead is non unit-level and there is
product diversity.

*When conversion costs are not broken into labor and overhead components,
a control account for conversion costs is used. Some firms now combine
overhead and direct labor costs into one category. This practice is developing because direct labor is becoming a small percentage of total manufacturing costs.

MANAGERIAL DECISION CASES
639
1.
Garys proposal requires Donna to falsify the equivalent unit calculation so

that income and assets can be inflated and reported incorrectly. Falsification
of the production report would be a violation of at least two major ethical
standards: integrity and objectivity. Falsification does not allow the organization to attain its legitimate and ethical objectives. Moreover, if Donna agrees
to the proposal, she would be taking action that would discredit her profession. Finally, Donna has an ethical obligation to communicate information
fairly and objectively, disclosing all information that would be needed for the
loan officer to fairly assess the merits of the companys request for a loan.
Clearly, Donna should not agree to falsify the production report.
2.
Donna has an obligation to report Gary to a superior only if an actual ethical

problem exists. If Gary decides that the course of action he is suggesting is
not really in his or the companys best interests, then no ethical problem exists, and no action by Donna is needed.
3.
If Gary insists on his idea of falsification of the divisions reports, Donna

should attempt to resolve the conflict by appealing to Garys immediate supervisor (and on up, if necessary, until a satisfactory resolution is achieved).
If no satisfactory resolution is possible, then Donna should resign and submit an informative memo to a representative of the organization.
4.
In this situation, the ethical dilemma is complicated by two factors: Donnas

age and a low likelihood of resolution by appealing to higher-level authorities.
Donnas age may make it more difficult to find alternative employment (at
least at the same level and pay), and it may mean possible forfeiture of retirement benefits. Many students will likely respond that Donna should still
resign (assuming that resolution is not likely), recommending the ideal outcome. While Donnas ultimate resignation is the right choice if resolution
fails, students should realize that ethical behavior may often carry with it
some very significant personal sacrifices. It could be argued, however, that
the costs of unethical behavior are even greater.
Another possibility is to encourage Donna to see a lawyer. She has the option
of fighting back, and at her age (with retirement benefits at stake), a good offense may be her best defense.
