The cost of production report may be used as the basis for allocating product costs between Select Work in Process Finished Goods and Select Transferred-Out Goods Cost of Goods Sold. The report can also be used to control costs by holding each department head responsible for the units entering production and the costs incurred in the department. Any differences in unit product costs from one month to another, such as those in part (3), can be studied carefully and any significant differences investigated.
