Which of the following is an operating budget?
budgeted income statement
Operating budgets are
concerned with the income-generating activities of a firm.
The costs included in the cost per equivalent unit using the weighted average method are
current costs & beginning work in process.
Unit cost of materials for a department using the FIFO method of process costing is found by taking the total cost of materials issued to the department during the year divided by
equivalent units of output.
Equivalent units expresses all activity of the period in terms of
fully completed units.
Materials are added to a second production department and will not increase the number of units produced in this department. Adding materials to the second department will
increase total unit cost

labor and overhead are added at the same rate but different materials are added at a different point.
Transferred-in costs are accounted for in the same manner as
materials added at the beginning of the process.
