PROCESS COSTING
Process Costing is a method of costing that is used in those industries where a product passes through different stages of manufacture before it becomes a finished product. Each stage of manufacture/production is known as process & ascertainment of cost at each stage is called process costing. This method of costing is suitable for industries engaged in the continuous production of identical & uniform-size products. The output of one process is passed on to the next process & the output of the last process becomes the finished product. The raw material is introduced in the first process & its output is passed on to the second process & so on unless it reaches the final process where the finished product is obtained. Some materials may be introduced in different processes also. The cost (P.U) at each process can be obtained by dividing the total cost by the no.of units produced there. The cost of the final product is calc
