MEMORANDUM
TO:
FROM:
DATE:
RE: Percentage of Completion Error Analysis
If the units in ending inventory are 75% complete instead of 25% with respect
to conversion, the number of equivalent units in ending inventory with respect
to conversion is understated, and the total equivalent units produced for the
period is also understated. If the correct percentage of completion with
respect to conversion is used, the conversion cost per equivalent unit will be
smaller. However, the cost of conversion in ending Work in Process is larger
because the percentage of equivalent units remaining in ending inventory is
greater.
Regarding financial statements, this error causes an overstatement of cost of
goods sold and an understatement of net income on the income statement for
September. On the September 30 balance sheet, the Work in Process
inventory and retained earnings are understated; therefore total assets and
equity are also understated.
