Job Costing and Process Costing Differences?
Process Cost Systems
Series of manufacturing processes
Cost per process is accumulated and moved from one process to another process
Costs transferred to FG Inventory only from the WIP Inventory of the LAST manufacturing process
When units are sold, cost is transferred out of FG Inventory into COGS

How Does Process Costing Work
Using weighted average assumption
Five steps to process costing:
Summarize the flow of physical units.
Compute output in terms of equivalent units.
Summarize total costs to account for.
Compute the cost per equivalent unit.
Assign total costs to units completed and to units in ending WIP inventory.

Step 1: Summarize the Flow of Physical Units – Exhibit 5-5 on p. 264
Total physical units to account for?
How many individual (physical) units were worked on (completed or not)
Total physical units accounted for?
What happened to those products ? (Finished or still in process)

Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall.
Journal entries used in a process costing system
Similar to job order system except:
The manufacturing costs (direct materials, direct labor, and manufacturing overhead) are assigned to processing departments, rather than jobs.
At the end of the month a journal entry must be made to transfer cost to the next processing department.
Example:
Direct materials were requisitioned for use by department 1.
| Debit | Credit | ||
| Oct. 31 | Work-in-process – Department 1 | 140,000 | |
| Direct Materials | 140,000 | ||
| Materials requisitioned to department 1 |
Copyright © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall.
39
Journal entries used
Labor time records show that $21,250 of direct labor was used in department 1 during October, resulting in this journal entry
Manufacturing overhead is allocated to the department using the company’s predetermined overhead rate. department’s overhead rate is $50 per machine hour and the department used 935 machine hours
