The cost of production report summarizes (1) the units for which the department is accountable and the units to be assigned costs and (2) the costs charged to the department and the allocation of those costs.

According to the l ean manufacturing   philosophy,

Equivalent units are the sum of direct materials used and direct labor incurred.

Process manufacturers typically use large machines to process a continuous flow of raw materials into a finished state.

In applying the first-in, first-out method of costing inventories, if 8,000 units which are 30% completed are in process at June 1, 28,000 units are completed during June, and 4,000 units were 75% completed at June 30, the number of equivalent units of production for June was 33,400.

The direct materials costs and direct labor costs incurred by a production department are referred to as conversion costs.

The Brass Works is in the process of determining manufacturing overhead. Journalize events (a) - (d) to Factory Overhead, Administrative Expenses, Selling expenses, or allocated between the three as appropriate. All items were paid in cash at the time of acquisition.  Next calculate the overhead application rate and apply overhead to Work in Process. (a) Brass Works purchases an insurance policy for $4,000. It is computed that 80% of the value of the policy protects production, the balance protects the administrative offices. brass Works charges insurance initially to expense. (b) The electric bill is received showing an amount due of $1,200. This meter is utilized only by production as the office spaces have their own meter. (c) Payroll reports that the sales manager's salary for the period is $3,500 and that production supervisors wages for the period are $5,500. (d) The stockroom reports that $2,575 in materials were purchased for the production Maintenance Department. (e) If the driver for the application of overhead is drop-forge strokes and there are expected to be 1,000 strokes in this period, what is the rate per stroke? Do not round your answer. (f) Assuming that there are 1,150 drop-forge strokes in this period, apply factory overhead to Work in Process. Round your answers to nearest dollar. Round overhead rate to four decimal places and total cost to nearest dollar.

One of the primary uses of a cost of production report is to assist management in controlling production costs.

Which of the following measures would not help managers to control and improve operations?
