For E2-17, prepare any journal entries that would have been different if the only trigger points had been the purchase of materials and the sale of finished goods. Davis Co. uses backflush costing to account for its manufacturing costs. The trigger points are the purchase of materials, the completion of goods, and the sale of goods. Prepare journal entries to account for the following: a. Purchased raw materials, on account, 70,000. b. Requisitioned raw materials to production, 70,000. c. Distributed direct labor costs, 15,000. d. Factory overhead costs incurred, 45,000. (Use Various Credits for the account in the credit part of the entry.) e. Completed all of the production started. f. Sold the completed production for 195,000, on account. (Hint: Use a single account for raw materials and work in process.)
Potterii sells its products to large box stores and recently added a retail line of products to sell directly to consumers. These estimates are to be used in determining the overhead allocation rate for ABC: What would be the predetermined rate for each cost pool?
Which is not a step In activity-based costing? A. identify the activities performed by the organization B. identify the cost driver(s) associated with each activity C. compute a cost rate per production D. assign costs to products by multiplying the cost driver rate by the volume of the cost driver units consumed by the product
Wheels, Inc. manufactures wheels for bicycles, tricycles, and scooters. For each cost given below, determine if the cost is a product cost or a period cost. If the cost is a product cost, further determine if the cost is direct materials (DM), direct labor (DL), or manufacturing overhead (MOH) and then determine if the product cost is a prime cost, conversion cost, or both. If the cost is a period cost, further determine if the cost is a selling expense or administrative expense (Admin). Cost (a) is answered as a guide. (If an answer does not apply, leave the box blank.) Product Product Period Cost DM DL MOH Prime Conversion Selling Admin. a. Metal used for rims X X b. Sales salaries c. Rent on factory d. Wages of assembly workers e. Salary…

In a manufacturing company, overhead allocations are made for three reasons: (1) to determine the full cost of a product; (2) to encourage efficient resource usage; and (3) to compare alternative courses of action for management purposes. 1. Why must overhead be considered a product cost under generally accepted accounting principles? 2. Ayam Company makes plastic dog carriers. The manufacturing process is highly automated and the machine time needed to make any size crate is approximately the same. Ayam’s management decides to begin producing plastic lawn furniture and, to do so, two additional pieces of automated equipment are acquired. Annual depreciation on the new pieces of equipment is P38,000. Should the new overhead cost be allocated over all products manufactured by Ayam? Explain.

Explain your classifications. 1. The cost of components that are assembled into a final product. 2. The cost of supplies consumed when maintenance is performed on machines. 3. The wages of machine operators who work on only one product. 4. The cost of training mechanics who service processing machinery. Question content area bottom Part 1 1. The cost of components that are assembled into a final product. Classification Explanation
Levels of cost drivers. Each of the following is a potential activity driver. Identify the most likely level of each driver with U for a unit-level driver, B for a batch-level diver and P for a product-level driver. Loads of materials moved Materials cost Pounds of finished product produced Shipments to customers (where no finished goods inventory is maintained Number of part numbers used Machine hours Purchase orders issued (where large materials inventories are maintained Direct costs Pieces inspected (where output is 100% inspected) Pieces inspected (where only the first piece is inspected after each setup)
