Answer:
a) Predetermined overhead rate is 210%
b. Overhead is under-applied by $42,700
c. Particulars Debit credit
cost of goods sold $42,700 $42,700
factory overhead
Explanation:
Beginning of the year
Overhead costs = $840,000
Direct materials costs = $400,000
End of the year actual overhead cost = $1,151,500
Jobs completed and sold = $390,000
Jobs in finished goods inventory = $83,000
Jobs in work in process inventory = $55,000
Total actual direct materials cost = $528,000
a. Calculating the predetermined overhead rate= (Overhead ÷direct labor) × 100
Predetermined overhead rate= ($840,000 ÷ $400,000) × 100
= 210%
b. Factory overhead
Actual overhead = $1,151,500
Applied overhead = $528000 × 210% = $1,108,800
Difference = actual overhead- applied overhead
= $1,151,500 - $1,108,800
= $42,700 Under-applied overhead
c. Adjusting entry to allocate the above under-applied overhead cost of goods sold
Particulars Debit credit
cost of goods sold $42,700 $42,700
factory overhead
