6. The difference between EUP calculated using FIFO and EUP calculated using weighted
average is the equivalent units _______. (Points: 1)
       started and completed during the period
       residing in beginning Work in Process Inventory
       residing in ending Work in Process Inventory
       uncompleted in Work in Process Inventory

7. In a FIFO process costing system, which of the following are assumed to be completed first in
the current period? (Points: 1)

       units started last period
       units transferred out
       units still in process

8. The primary difference between the FIFO and weighted average methods of process costing is
_______. (Points: 1)
       in the treatment of beginning Work in Process Inventory
       in the treatment of current period production costs
       in the treatment of spoiled units
       none of the above
9. In a cost of production report using process costing, transferred-in costs are similar to the
______. (Points: 1)
