- Compute the total job cost for each of the following scenarios: a. If the direct labor cost method is used in applying factory overhead and the predetermined rate is 100%, what amount should be charged to Job 2010 for factory overhead? Assume that direct materials used totaled 5,000 and that the direct labor cost totaled 3,200. b. If the direct labor hour method is used in applying factory overhead and the predetermined rate is 10 an hour, what amount should be charged to Job 2010 for factory overhead? Assume that the direct materials used totaled 5,000, the direct labor cost totaled 3,200, and the number of direct labor hours totaled 250. c. If the machine hour method is used in applying factory overhead and the predetermined rate is 12.50 an hour, what amount should be charged to Job 2010 for factory overhead? Assume that the direct materials used totaled 5,000, the direct labor cost totaled 3,200, the direct labor hours were 250 hours, and the machine hours were 295 hours.arrow_forwardAAA Appliances Inc. has two production departments. The nature of the process is such that no units remain in process in Finishing at the end of the period. At the beginning of the period, 10,000 units with a cost of 30,000 were transferred from Assembly to Finishing.

- Rulers Company is a neon sign company that estimated overhead will be $60,000, consisting of 1,500 machine hours. The cost to make Job 416 is $95 in neon, 15 hours of labor at $13 per hour, and five machine hours. During the month, it incurs $95 in indirect material cost, $130 in administrative labor, $320 in utilities, and $350 in depreciation expense. What is the predetermined overhead rate if machine hours are considered the cost driver? What is the cost of Job 416? What is the overhead incurred during the month?arrow_forwardCleanCom Company specializes in cleaning commercial buildings and construction sites. Each building and site is different, requiring amounts and types of supplies and labor for each job. CleanCom estimated the following for the year: During the year, the following actual amounts were experienced: If CleanCom uses a normal costing system and overhead is applied on the basis of direct labor hours, what is the cost of cleaning a construction site that takes 140 of direct materials and 21 direct labor hours? a. 455 b. 508 c. 648 d. 644arrow_forwardAAA Appliances Inc. has two production departments.

Finishing incurred costs of 8,800 for materials, 7,200 for labor, and 8,800 for factory overhead, and finished 10,000 units during the month. Using the data in E5-9, prepare a statement of cost of goods manufactured for the month ended January 31, 2016, assuming that no further work was done in Assembly during January.arrow_forward
- Cycle Specialists manufactures goods on a job order basis. During the month of June, three jobs were started in process. (There was no work in process at the beginning of the month.) Jobs Sprinters and Trekkers were completed and sold, on account, during the month (selling prices: Sprinters, 22,000; Trekkers, 27,000); Job Roadsters was still in process at the end of June. The following data came from the job cost sheets for each job. The factory overhead includes a total of 1,200 of indirect materials and 900 of indirect labor. Prepare journal entries to record the following: a. Materials used. b. Factory wages and salaries earned. c. Factory Overhead transferred to Work in Process d. Jobs completed. e. Jobs sold.arrow_forwardBrady Furniture Company manufactures wooden oak furniture. The company employs a job cost system to trace manufacturing costs to jobs. Each job represents a batch of furniture of the same type. Information regarding direct materials on selected jobs throughout the year is as follows: Dining tables are the most difficult furniture item in Bradys catalog to manufacture. Thus, the most skilled employees are scheduled to make dining tables, unless they are required for other jobs. a. Determine the material cost per unit for each job. b. Use the January material cost per unit for each type of furniture as the base material cost. For each month and each type of furniture, determine the unit material cost as a percent of the base unit material cost. Round percent to one decimal place. Use the following table format: c. Develop a line chart of the percent of unit material cost to the base unit material cost. Place the months on the horizontal axis and use three lines for the three different types of furniture. d. Interpret the chart. What is happening to the dining tables?arrow_forwardDavis 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.

(Hint: Use a single account for raw materials and work in process.)arrow_forward
- Abbey Products Company is studying the results of applying factory overhead to production. The following data have been used: estimated factory overhead, 60,000; estimated materials costs, 50,000; estimated direct labor costs, 60,000; estimated direct labor hours, 10,000; estimated machine hours, 20,000; work in process at the beginning of the month, none. The actual factory overhead incurred for November was 80,000, and the production statistics on November 30 are as follows: Required: 1. Compute the predetermined rate, based on the following: a. Direct labor cost b. Direct labor hours c. Machine hours 2. Using each of the methods, compute the estimated total cost of each job at the end of the month. 3. Determine the under-or overapplied factory overhead, in total, at the end of the month under each of the methods. 4. Which method would you recommend? Why?arrow_forwardNutts 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. Save the completed worksheet as JOBT. Chart. Open JOB8964 and click the Chart sheet tab. Prepare a bar chart for JOB8964 showing the amount of material, labor, and overhead required to complete the job. Use the Chart Data Table found in rows 4246 as a basis for preparing the chart. Enter your name somewhere on the chart. Save the file again as J0B8964. Print the chart.arrow_forwardHandbrain Inc. is considering a change to activity-based product costing. The company produces two products, cell phones and tablet PCs, in a single production department. The production department is estimated to require 2,000 direct labor hours. The total indirect labor is budgeted to be 200,000. Time records from indirect labor employees revealed that they spent 30% of their time setting up production runs and 70% of their time supporting actual production. The following information about cell phones and tablet PCs was determined from the corporate records: a. Determine the indirect labor cost per unit allocated to cell phones and tablet PCs under a single plantwide factory overhead rate system using the direct labor hours as the allocation base. b. Determine the budgeted activity costs and activity rates for the indirect labor under activity-based costing. Assume two activitiesone for setup and the other for production support. c. Determine the activity cost per unit for indirect labor allocated to each product under activity-based costing. d. Why are the per-unit allocated costs in (a) different from the per-unit activity cost assigned to the products in (c)?arrow_forward
