False

Explanation:

Cost

This is simply defined as a payment of cash or the commitment to pay cash in the future for revenues purpose. E.g. The cash used to purchase a tractor, is the cost of the tractor.

Conversion costs

This is simply regarded as direct materials, direct labor, and factory overhead costs that can be selected together or grouped together for analysis and reporting. It consist of direct labor in factory overhead costs.

The Equation for Conversion cost is simply = Direct Labor Cost + Manufacturing Overhead Cost.

While the Equivalent Units of Production = Number of Units Transferred to the next department + Equivalent Units in Ending Works in Process Inventory.

The equation for Equivalent units of production for conversion cost is given below: Units completed and transferred out + Equivalent units in ending work in process for conversion cost.

The equation for Cost per equivalent unit for conversion cost is simply =

(conversion cost of beginning work in process + conversion cost added during the period)/ Equivalent units of production for conversion cost.
