INCREASE IN UNITS DUE TO ADDITION OF MATERIALS
With some products, the addition of materials in the subsequent departments may
cause the units to increase. This require an adjustment in the unit cost from the
preceding department because the total. cost will remain the same while the units to
absorb the same cost will increase and this will result in a decrease in the unit cost
from preceding department. :
Computation of adjusted cost from preceding department
= Total cost from preceding department
Units received + increase in units
Iflost units are discovered in the same department where we had an increase in units,
the adjusted cost will be computed based on the following assumptions.
a units normal, discovered at the beginning of the process
