Explanation of Solution
The T-accounts with complete information:
T-accounts in job costing: The ledger accounts are also termed as T-accounts which are prepared after the recording of the journal entry of the transactions. The balances of raw materials, work-in-process, finished goods inventory and overheads from the journal book are transferred to the respective T-accounts.
Journal entries (job costing): The journal entries are prepared in order to record the day to day transactions of the entity. The journal entries in job costing are prepared by starting from the materials inventory. The balances are then transferred to work-in-process inventory and after that to finished goods inventory.
