Question: For a given process/department, if there is no beginning work-in-process, both the weighted average and first-in first out (FIFO) methods of process costing result in
For a given process/department, if there is no beginning work-in-process, both the weighted average and first-in first out (FIFO) methods of process costing result in the same amount for which of the following?
I. Equivalent units of production for materials
II. Cost per equivalent unit for conversion
III. Cost of completed units
IV. Cost of ending work-in-process
| A. | I and III | |
| B. | I, II, III, and IV | |
| C. | II and IV | |
| D. | I and II | |
| E. | I, III, IV |
Which of the following is true of the weighted average method of process costing?
| A. | It better matches ending inventory costs with current costs than the FIFO method. | |
| B. | If there is no ending work in process, it results in the same amount of cost for completed units as the FIFO method does. | |
| C. | It results in higher net income than the FIFO method. | |
| D. | In computing equivalent units of production, it considers all work done during the previous periods. | |
| E. | In computing the cost per equivalent unit of production, it considers only costs incurred in the current period. |
