Answer 1

Answer:

Over Applied Overhead      = $ 4000

Actual Manufacturing Overhead = $45,000

Manufacturing Overhead Applied = $ 49,000

Explanation:

                                          Job 101        Job 102        Job 103

Total Direct materials      $ 19,200     $ 14,400       $ 9,600       $ 43,200

Direct labor                    $ 28,800       $ 11,200        $ 9,600      $ 49,600

Machine hours              1,000 hrs        4,000 hrs      2,000 hrs   7,000 hours

Manufacturing overhead   $ 7000       $ 28,000      14,000

Total                                $ 55,000         53,600        33,200

Actual overhead costs recorded during the first month of operations totaled $45,000.

Job 102              Finished Goods           53,600

                           Work In Process                                     53,600

A journal entry showing the transfer of Job 102 into Finished Goods Inventory upon its completion.

Job 101                Sales                         60,000

                        Cost Of Goods Sold                              60,000

Journal entries to recognize the sales revenue and cost of goods sold for Job 101.

Job 101              Cost of Goods Sold        55,000

                          Finished Goods Inventory                  55,000

Manufacturing Overhead Applied =   $ 7000 + $ 28,000+14,000 = $ 49,000

Job 101 = 1000/60,000 * $ 420,000= $ 7000

Job 102 = 4000/60,000 * $ 420,000= $ 28000

Job 103 = 2000/60,000 * $ 420,000= $ 14000

Actual Manufacturing Overhead = $45,000

Over Applied Overhead      = $ 4000

                                   

      Manufacturing Overhead  Accounts $ 4000  debit                  

              Cost of Goods Sold          $ 4000 Credit
