Cost Accounting Systems
LEARNING OBJECTIVE 1
Describe cost systems and the flow of costs in a job order system.
Cost Accounting
•
Involves measuring, recording, and reporting product costs
•
Accounts are fully integrated into the general ledger
•
Perpetual inventory system provides immediate, up-to-date information on cost of a product
•
Two basic types: (1) a process order cost system and (2) a job order cost system
LO 1

3
Process Cost System
•
Used when a large volume of similar products are manufactured - (cereal, refining of petroleum,
production of ice cream)
•
Costs are accumulated for a time period – (week or month)
•
Costs are assigned to departments or processes for a specified period of time

5
Job Order Cost System
•
Costs are assigned to each job or batch
•
Important feature: Each job or batch has its own distinguishing characteristics
•
Objective is to compute cost per job
•
Measures costs for each job completed – not for set time periods

7
Job Order Cost Flow
Flow of costs parallels physical flow of materials as they are converted into finished goods
LO 1
•
Manufacturing costs are assigned to Work in Process (WIP) Inventory account
•
Cost of completed jobs is transferred to Finished Goods Inventory account
•
When units are sold, cost is transferred to Cost of Goods Sold account

Accumulating Manufacturing Costs
Raw Material Costs
Wallace purchases 2,000 lithium batteries (Stock No. AA2746) at $5 per unit ($10,000) and 800 electronic modules
(Stock No. AA2850) at $40 per unit ($32,000) for a total cost of $42,000 ($10,000 + $32,000). This purchase increases
Raw Materials Inventory as shown.

Accumulating Manufacturing Costs
Factory Labor Costs
Consists of three costs:
LO 1
1.
Gross earnings of factory workers
2.
Employer payroll taxes on these earnings
3.
Fringe benefits (such as sick pay, pensions, and vacation pay) incurred by the employer

Accumulating Manufacturing Costs
Manufacturing Overhead Costs
•
Many types of overhead costs
o
Property taxes, depreciation, insurance, and repairs related to the manufacturing process
•
Costs unrelated to manufacturing are expensed
•
Costs related to manufacturing process are accumulated in Manufacturing Overhead account

Do It! 1: Manufacturing Costs
During the current month, Ringling Company incurs the following manufacturing costs:
a. Raw material purchases of $4,200.
b. Factory labor of $18,000. Of that amount, $15,000 relates to wages and $3,000 relates to payroll taxes.
c. Factory utilities of $2,200 are payable, prepaid factory insurance of $1,800 has expired, and depreciation
on the factory building is $3,500.
Using the format shown in Illustration 2.6, record the company’s manufacturing costs in its job order costing
system.

Assigning Manufacturing Costs
LEARNING OBJECTIVE 2
Use a job cost sheet to assign costs to work in process.
Assigning manufacturing costs to work in process results in the following entries.
LO 2
1.
Increases to Work in Process Inventory
2.
Decreases to
o
Raw Materials Inventory
o
Factory Labor
o
Manufacturing Overhead

Assigning Manufacturing Costs
Job Cost Sheet
•
Used to record costs chargeable to specific jobs
•
Constitutes subsidiary ledger for work in process account
•
Each increase or decrease to Work in Process Inventory must be accompanied by a
corresponding posting to one or more job cost sheets

Raw Material Costs
•
Assigned to a job when materials are issued in response to requests.
•
Materials requisition slip
LO 2
o
Written authorization for issuing raw materials
o
May be directly issued to use on a job - direct materials (charged to Work in Process Inventory)
o
May be considered indirect materials – charged to Manufacturing Overhead
