2. Fixed costs expressed on a per unit basis:
will increase with increases in activity.
will decrease with increases in activity.
are not affected by activity.
should be ignored in making decisions since they cannot change.

3. Inventoriable costs are also known as:
variable costs
conversion costs
product costs
fixed costs

4. When the activity level is expected to decline within the relevant range, what effects would be anticipated with respect to each of the following?
Fixed Costs per Unit Increase and Variable Costs per Unit Increase
Fixed Costs per Unit Increase and Variable Costs per Unit do not change

5. Emco Company uses direct labor cost as a basis for computing its predetermined overhead rate. In computing the predetermined overhead rate for last year, the company misclassified a portion of direct labor cost as indirect labor. The effect of this misclassification will be to:
understate the predetermined overhead rate
overstate the predetermined overhead rate
have no effect on the predetermined overhead rate
cannot be determined from the information given

6. A process cost system is employed in those situations in which:
many different products, jobs, or batches of production are being produced each period
where manufacturing involves a single, homogeneous product that flows evenly through the production process on a continuous basis
a service is performed such as in a law firm or an accounting firm
full or absorption cost approach is not employed

7. Equivalent units for a process costing system using the FIFO method would be equal to:
units completed during the period, plus equivalent units in the ending work in process inventory
units started and completed during the period, plus equivalent units in the ending work in process inventory
units completed during the period and transferred out
units started and completed during the period, plus equivalent units in the ending work in process inventory, plus work needed to complete units in the beginning work in process inventory

8. The contribution margin ratio always decreases when the:
break-even point increases
break-even point decreases
variable expenses as a percentage of net sales increase
variable expenses as a percentage of net sales decrease

9. The break-even point in unit sales is found by dividing total fixed expenses by:
the contribution margin ratio
the variable expenses per unit
the sales price per unit
the contribution margin per unit

10. Under variable costing:
net operating income will tend to move up and down in response to changes in levels of production
inventory costs will be lower than under absorption costing
net operating income will tend to vary inversely with production changes
net operating income will always be higher than under absorption costing

Required: Prepare a Schedule of Cost of Goods Manufactured statement in the text box below.

12. The Michigan Company manufactures a product that goes through three processing departments. Information relating to activity in the first department during June is given below:
Percent completed
Units Materials Conversion
Work in process, June 1 40,000 65% 45%
Work in process, Jun 30 35,000 75% 65%
The department started 175,000 units into production during the month and transferred 180,000 completed units to the next department.
REQUIRED: Compute the equivalent units of production for the first department for June, assuming that the company uses the weighted-average method of accounting for units and costs.
