done is futile. That is the reason the FASB is so worried about the unwavering quality of budget
summary data.

dependability, and lack of bias.

In process costing Cost of Production Report also called Process Cost Sheet is the key document. At the
end of costing period, generally a month, a Cost of Production Report is prepared. It summarizes the
data of quantity produced and cost incurred by each producing department. It also serves as a source
document for passing accounting entries at the end of costing period. A cost of production report
shows:
 Total unit costs transferred to it from a preceding department
 Materials, labor, and factory overhead added by the department

information. A brief description of these sections is presented below:
1. Quantity Schedule
2. Cost Charged to the Department
3. Equivalent units produced
4. Cost Per Unit
5. Cost Accounted for as Follows
Example # 1:
A manufacturing company makes a single production in one department; you are required to make a
Cost of Production Report (CPR) from the following data:
Cost Data Production Data
Material Cost Rs. 24,500 Unit started for production 50,000 Units
Labor Cost 29,450 Unit completed 45,000
Factory overhead Cost 28,500 Unit in process 5,000
At the end of month Raw material 100% completed and Labor and FOH 50%.

Solution:

Quantity Schedule:

50,000
Units started in process

======

Units completed and transferred to next department 45,000

Units still in process (All materials – 50% Labor and FOH) 5,000

50,000
======

Quantity Schedule
The first section Quantity Schedule contains input and output data in terms of quantities. The
information is presented in the following order.

Cost Charged to the Department

This section contains direct materials, direct labor and factory overhead added by the department:
Cost Charged to the Department:

Materials Rs. 24,500

Labor 29,450

28,500
Factory Overhead (FOH)
——-

Cost Charged to the Department Rs. 82,450

======

Equivalent Units Produced

In order to arrive at cost per unit of output, total of each cost element is divided by the number of units
produced. For this purpose, where at the end of costing period, there are some partially completed units
in process, these units must be stated in terms of equivalent completed units. These equivalent units are
added to units completed by the department to arrive at equivalent production. Then total cost is
divided by this equivalent production figure to calculate unit cost.

Equivalent Units Produced:

Materials (45,000) + (5,000*100%) 50,000 Units

Labor (45,000) + (5,000*50%) 47,500 Units

47,500
Factory Overhead (45,000) + (5,000*50%)
===========

Cost per Unit

The unit cost of the equivalent units for a given period is calculated as follows:

Cost per Unit:

Materials (24,500 / 50,000) 0.49 per Un

Labor (29,450 / 47,500) 0.62 per Un

Factory Overhead (28,200 / 47,500) 0.60 per Un

Total per unit cost 1.71 per Un

Cost Accounted for as Follows

This section shows total cost for which the departments are accountable:
Cost Accounted for as Follows:

Transferred to next department (45,000 × Rs. 1.71) Rs. 76,950

Work in process – ending inventory:

Materials (5,000 × 100% × Rs. 0.49) Rs. 2,450

Labor (5,000 × 50% × Rs. 0.62) 1,550

marketing]". Seeing that something does not fill in as anticipated the seventh day rather than the 47th is
