Question:

Average and FIFO cost methods; losses at the beginning and end of processing}

Similar to Self-Study Problem 1 Mt. Orab Manufacturing Company uses a process cost system. Its manufacturing operation is carried on in two departments: Machining and Finishing. The Machining Department uses the average cost method and the Finishing Department uses the FIFO cost method. Materials are added in both departments at the beginning of operations, but the added materials do not increase the number of units being processed. Units are lost in the Machining Department throughout the production process, and inspection occurs at the end of the process. The lost units have no scrap value and are considered to be a normal loss.
