14. Sodius Chemical Inc. placed 220,000 liters of direct materials into the mixing process. At the end of the month, 5,000 liters were still in process, 30% converted as to labor and factory overhead. All direct materials are placed in mixing at the beginning of the process and conversion costs occur evenly during the process. Sodius uses weighted-average costing. Determine the equivalent units in process for direct materials and conversion costs, assuming there was no beginning inventory. Determine the equivalent units in process for direct materials and conversion costs, assuming that 12,000 liters of chemicals were 40% complete prior to the addition of the 220,000 liters.
Process Costing
Process costing is a sort of operation costing which is employed to determine the value of a product at each process or stage of producing process, applicable where goods produced from a series of continuous operations or procedure.
Job Costing
Job costing is adhesive costs of each and every job involved in the production processes. It is an accounting measure. It is a method which determines the cost of specific jobs, which are performed according to the consumer’s specifications. Job costing is possible only in businesses where the production is done as per the customer’s requirement. For example, some customers order to manufacture furniture as per their needs.

Cost accounting is generally used by the management so as to ensure better decision-making. In comparison to financial accounting, cost accounting has to follow a set standard ad can be used flexibly by the management as per their needs. The types of Cost Accounting include – Lean Accounting, Standard Costing, Marginal Costing and Activity Based Costing.
