- Nutts management is very concerned about the cost of overhead on its jobs. When jobs are complete, overhead costs should be between 15% and 20% of total costs. For example, the labor cost on Job 8958 is 25% of total costs, higher than the norm. Open Job 8961 and click the Chart sheet tab. A pie chart appears showing the cost components on that job. Record the labor cost percentage in the space provided. Repeat this for each of the jobs worked on in August. Did Nutt maintain good cost control on all its jobs? Explain. Worksheet. During September, Job 8963 required two additional material requisitions to complete the job. Open JOB8963 and modify the job cost sheet to include an area for four direct material requisition entries instead of three. Then enter the following two materials requisitions onto the worksheet: Preview the printout to make sure it will print neatly on one page, and then print the worksheet.

- Overhead Assignment: Actual and Normal Activity Compared Reynolds Printing Company specializes in wedding announcements. Reynolds uses an actual job-order costing system. An actual overhead rate is calculated at the end of each month using actual direct labor hours and overhead for the month. Once the actual cost of a job is determined, the customer is billed at actual cost plus 50%. During April, Mrs. Lucky, a good friend of owner Jane Reynolds, ordered three sets of wedding announcements to be delivered May 10, June 10, and July 10, respectively. Reynolds scheduled production for each order on May 7, June 7, and July 7, respectively. The orders were assigned job numbers 115, 116, and 117, respectively. Reynolds assured Mrs. Lucky that she would attend each of her daughters weddings. Out of sympathy and friendship, she also offered a lower price. Instead of cost plus 50%, she gave her a special price of cost plus 25%. Additionally, she agreed to wait until the final wedding to bill for the three jobs. On August 15, Reynolds asked her accountant to bring her the completed job-order cost sheets for Jobs 115, 116, and 117. She also gave instructions to lower the price as had been agreed upon. The cost sheets revealed the following information: Reynolds could not understand why the overhead costs assigned to Jobs 116 and 117 were so much higher than those for Job 115. She asked for an overhead cost summary sheet for the months of May, June, and July, which showed that actual overhead costs were 20,000 each month. She also discovered that direct labor hours worked on all jobs were 500 hours in May and 250 hours each in June and July. Required: 1. How do you think Mrs. Lucky will feel when she receives the bill for the three sets of wedding announcements? 2. Explain how the overhead costs were assigned to each job. 3. Assume that Reynoldss average activity is 500 hours per month and that the company usually experiences overhead costs of 240,000 each year.
