- For the weighted average method of process costing, the: total cost of completed units equals the total cost of ending work in process. unit cost of materials equals the unit cost for conversion costs. equivalent units for conversion costs are higher than the equivalent units for materials. flow of physical units produces the same results as the computations for equivalent units. None of the above is true.arrow_forwardWhich of the following quantities is an example of an activity cost driver in activity-based costing? O A. number of direct labour hours O B. number of labour transactions O C. number of machine hours O D. all of the abovearrow_forwardHow would I start a Production Cost Report. Should I use the refined weighted average method to start or should I use this formula?
