Required
a. What is the amount of indirect material cost incurred this period?
b. Specify whether MOH for the period was under- or over applied, and by how much.
c. Determine the COGS amount for this period (before any MOH difference would have been closed out).
d. Prepare the journal entry to close out the MOH difference, given that the company wants to prorate
it to the appropriate accounts based on their ending balances (before proration) (round proportions
to four decimal places, if necessary).
e. Did the proration of the MOH difference in part (d) have a significant effect on COGS this period?
Explain how you could evaluate significance here. Specify the new adjusted COGS.
f. If Locktin reported sales of $475,000 this year, what gross margin percentage did it earn? If the
company goal was to generate at least a 35% gross margin, did it meet its goal? What does this tell us
about Locktin's control of product costs this period?
