JOB ORDER COSTING WITH UNDER- AND OVERAPPLIED FACTORY OVERHEAD M. Evans Sons manufactures parts for radios. For each job order, it maintains ledger sheets on which it records direct labor, direct materials, and factory overhead applied. The factory overhead control account contains postings of actual overhead costs. At the end of the month, the under- or over applied factory overhead is charged to the cost of goods sold account. Factory overhead is applied on the basis of direct labor hours. For Job Nos. 101, 102,103, and 104, direct labor hours are 12, 000, 10,000, 11, 000, and 18,000, respectively. The overhead application rate is 1.20/direct labor hour. (a) Purchased raw materials on account, 50,000. (b) Issued direct materials: (c) Issued indirect materials to production, 8,000. (d) Incurred direct labor costs: (e) Charged indirect labor to production, 15,000. (f) Paid electricity bill, taxes, and repair fees for the factory and charged to production, 8,000. (g) Depreciation expense on factory equipment, 30,000. (h) Applied factory overhead to Job Nos. 101104 using the predetermined factory overhead rate (see above). (i) Finished Job Nos. 101103 and transferred to the finished goods inventory account as products N, O, and P. (j) Sold products N and for 50,000 and 45,400, respectively.

Primera Company produces two products and uses a predetermined overhead rate to apply overhead. Primera currently applies overhead using a plantwide rate based on direct labor hours. Consideration is being given to the use of departmental overhead rates where overhead would be applied on the basis of direct labor hours in Department 1 and on the basis of machine hours in Department 2. At the beginning of the year, the following estimates are provided: Actual results reported by department and product during the year are as follows: Required: 1. Compute the plantwide predetermined overhead rate and calculate the overhead assigned to each product. 2. Calculate the predetermined departmental overhead rates and calculate the overhead assigned to each product. 3. Using departmental rates, compute the applied overhead for the year. What is the under- or overapplied overhead for the firm? 4. Prepare the journal entry that disposes of the overhead variance calculated in Requirement 3, assuming it is not material in amount. What additional information would you need if the variance is material to make the appropriate journal entry?
