Document Summary

The fifo method is generally considered more accurate than the weighted-average method: fifo calculates unit costs using only the costs and outputs from the current period. Step 1: compute the equivalent units of production. Units completed and transferred out of department a during june. Equivalent units needed to complete beginning wip inventory. The fifo method removes the equivalent units that were already in beginning inventory from the equivalent units as defined using the weighted-average method. Thus, the fifo method isolates the equivalent units due to work performed during the current period. Step 2: compute the cost per equivalent unit. Or the equivalent units of production can also be determined as follows. Part 1: record the cost in beginning work in process inventory. Part 2: compute the cost to complete the units in beginning wip inventory. Part 3: compute the cost of units started and completed this period. Part 4: compute the total cost of units transferred out.
