Chapter 2, Problem 19E
A machine shop manufactures a stainless steel part that is used in an assembled product. Materials charged to a particular job amounted to $600. At the point of final inspection, it was discovered that the material used was inferior to the specifications required by the engineering department; therefore, all units had to be scrapped.
Record the entries required for scrap under each of the following conditions:
- a. The revenue received for scrap is to be treated as a reduction in
manufacturing cost but cannot be identified with a specific job. The value of stainless steel scrap is stable and estimated to be $125 for this job. The scrap is sold two months later for cash at the estimated value of $125. - b. Revenue received for scrap is to be treated as a reduction in manufacturing cost but cannot be identified with a specific job. A firm price is not determinable for the scrap until it is sold. It is sold eventually for $75 cash.
- c. The production job is a special job, and the $85 received on account for the scrap is to be treated as a reduction in manufacturing cost. (A firm price is not determinable for the scrap until it is sold.)
- d. Only $40 cash was received for the scrap when it was sold in the following fiscal period. (A firm price is not determinable for the scrap until it is sold, and the amount to be received for the scrap is to be treated as other income.)

A machine shop manufactures a stainless-steel part that is used in an assembled product. Materials charged to a particular job amounted to P6,000. At the point of final inspection, it was discovered that the material used was inferior to the specifications required by the engineering department; therefore, all units had to be scrapped. The revenue received for scrap is to be treated as a reduction in manufacturing cost but cannot be identified with a specific job. A firm price is not determinable for the scrap until it is sold. It is sold eventually for P7,500. How much is the scrap revenue to be recorded?
Pharoah Corp. received an order for 25 automatic mixing machines. Because of the order's exacting specifications, it is anticipated that defective and spoiled work will exceed the normal rate. The materials cost per unit is P80; labor cost, P194; and manufacturing overhead for this order is to be applied at 100% of the labor cost. During production, 5 units were found to be defective and required the following total additional costs: materials, P97, labor, P125, and manufacturing overhead at the 100% rate. On final inspection, 2 units were classified as seconds and sold for P400 each, the proceeds being credited to the order. The purchaser has agreed to accept the 23 machines, although the acceptable units are fewer than the number ordered. What is the unit cost of the completed units?

- Lloyd Industries manufactures electrical equipment from specifications received from customers. Job X10 was for 1,000 motors to be used in a specially designed electrical complex. The followingcosts were determined for each motor: At final inspection, Lloyd discovered that 33 motors did not meet the exacting specifications established by the customer. Anexamination indicated that 18 motors were beyond repair andshould be sold as spoiled goods for 75 each. The remaining15 motors, though defective, could be reconditioned as first-qualityunits by the addition of 1,650 for materials, 1,500 for labor, and1,200 for factory overhead. Required: Prepare the journal entries to record the following: 1. The scrapping of the 18 motors, with the income from spoiledgoods treated as a reduction in the manufacturing cost of thespecific job. 2. The correction of the 15 defective motors, with the additionalcost charged to the specific job. 3. The additional cost of replacing the 18 spoiled motors with newmotors. 4. The sale of the spoiled motors for 75 each. 5. If the reconditioned motors sell for 400 each, is Lloyd betteroff reconditioning the defective motors or selling them as isfor 75 as spoiled goods?arrow_forwardMt. Palomar Manufacturing Co. uses a process cost system. Its manufacturing operation is carried on in two departments: Machining and Finishing. The Machining Department uses the weighted average cost method, and the Finishing Department uses the FIFO cost method. Materials are added in both departments at the beginning of operations, but the added materials do not increase the number of units being processed. Units are lost in the Machining Department throughout the production process, and inspection occurs at the end of the process. The lost units have no scrap value and are considered to be a normal loss. Production statistics for July show the following data: Required: Prepare a cost of production summary for each department. (Round unit costs to three decimal places.) Which department will have an easier time determining how its unit costs compare from month to month?

- Journal entries to correct defective work. Columbus Fabricators manufacture golf carts and other recreational equipment. One order from Wisconsin Wholesale Company for 1000 carts showed the following costs per unit: direct materials, $40, direct labor, $20, and factory overhead applied at 140% of direct labor cost if defective work is charged to a specific job and 150% if it is not.
