Standard unit cost and journal entries The normal capacity of Algonquin Adhesives Inc. is 40,000 direct labor hours and 20,000 units per month. A finished unit requires 6 lb of materials at an estimated cost of 2 per pound. The estimated cost of labor is 10.00 per hour. The plant estimates that overhead (all variable) for a month will be 40,000. During the month of March, the plant totaled 34,800 direct labor hours at an average rate of 9.50 an hour. The plant produced 18,000 units, using 105,000 lb of materials at a cost of 2.04 per pound. 1. Prepare a standard cost summary showing the standard unit cost. 2. Make journal entries to charge materials and labor to Work in Process.
Standard cost journal entries Bellingham Company produced 15,000 units that require 2.5 standard pounds per unit at a 3.75 standard price per pound. The company actually used 36,000 pounds in production. Journalize the entry to record the standard direct materials used in production.

A company estimates its manufacturing overhead will be $750,000 for the next year. What is the predetermined overhead rate given the following independent allocation bases? Budgeted direct labor hours: 60,000 Budgeted direct labor expense: $1,500,000 Estimated machine hours: 100,000
Business Specialty, Inc., manufactures two staplers: small and regular. The standard quantities of direct labor and direct materials per unit for the year are as follows: The standard price paid per pound of direct materials is 1.60. The standard rate for labor is 8.00. Overhead is applied on the basis of direct labor hours. A plantwide rate is used. Budgeted overhead for the year is as follows: The company expects to work 12,000 direct labor hours during the year; standard overhead rates are computed using this activity level. For every small stapler produced, the company produces two regular staplers. Actual operating data for the year are as follows: a. Units produced: small staplers, 35,000; regular staplers, 70,000. b. Direct materials purchased and used: 56,000 pounds at 1.5513,000 for the small stapler and 43,000 for the regular stapler. There were no beginning or ending direct materials inventories. c. Direct labor: 14,800 hours3,600 hours for the small stapler and 11,200 hours for the regular stapler. Total cost of direct labor: 114,700. d. Variable overhead: 607,500. e. Fixed overhead: 350,000. Required: 1. Prepare a standard cost sheet showing the unit cost for each product. 2. Compute the direct materials price and usage variances for each product. Prepare journal entries to record direct materials activity. 3. Compute the direct labor rate and efficiency variances for each product. Prepare journal entries to record direct labor activity. 4.
