Scenario: Davis Skaros has recently been promoted to production manager. He has just started to receive

various managerial reports, including the production cost report you prepared. It showed his department had 2,000

equivalent units in ending inventory. His department has had a history of not keeping enough inventory on hand to

meet demand. He has come to you, very angry, and wants to know why you credited him with only 2,000 units when

he knows he had at least twice that many on hand. Prepare a maximum 700-word informal memo and explain to Mr.

Skaros why his production cost report showed only 2,000 equivalent units in ending inventory. Using a professional

tone, explain to him clearly why your report is accurate. Format the assignment consistent with APA guidelines. Click

FROM: Name

SUBJECT: Production Cost Report

Mr. Skaros,

I would like to congratulate you on your recent promotion as production manager –

Welcome to the team. It is my understanding you were expecting to see your departments

ending production cost report showing 4,000 units instead of 2,000 units. I would like to take a

moment and explain to you what makes up our production cost report. As a new production

manager understanding the various monthly managerial reports can be quite difficult to interpret

to say the least. For each department to run smoothly, it must track inventory, units and costs to

ensure adequate inventory can meet demands.

The company must perform four steps in order to complete a production cost report.

These four steps are (1) physical unit flow, (2) equivalent units of production, (3) unit production

costs, and (4) cost reconciliation schedule (Kimmel, Weygandt, & Kieso, 2016, p. 799). Each

step will be explained, and an example of how equivalent units are figured will be provided to

help walk you through the data process of the report.

Step 1:

Physical units are the actual units to be accounted for during a period, irrespective of any work

performed. To keep track of these units, add the units started (or transferred) into production

during the period to the units in process at the beginning of the period. This amount is referred to

as the total units to be accounted for (Kimmel, Weygandt, & Kieso, 2016, p. 799).
