Introduction:

Process costing system: Process costing systems is a system to assign the costs where the production goes through different processes. A product may take several processes to complete and when these processes are separable, the process costing system is applied to ascertain the cost of each process.

Equivalent units: Equivalent unit is the product unit that is physically not completed but it is measured as equivalent to completed unit.

FIFO method: FIFO is one of the methods of process costing, under this method the cost and units of beginning work in process inventory are accounted separately.

To Calculate:

1. Number of units transferred to finished goods
2. Number of equivalent units for material and conversion
3. Direct material and conversion cost per equivalent units
4. Cost assigned to units transferred and ending work in process inventory
