Transcribed Image Text:### Factory Labor Costs for January
**Problem Statement:**
The gross earnings of factory workers for Cullumber Company during the month of January are $508,800. Of the total factory labor cost, 75% is attributable to direct labor and 25% is attributable to indirect labor.
**Task:**
(a) Use the grid below to record the factory labor costs for the month of January.
#### Grid for Recording Factory Labor Costs:
| Manufacturing Costs | Work in Process Inventory |
|--------------------------------|---------------------------|
| **Raw Materials Inventory** | |
| **Factory Labor** | |
| **Manufacturing Overhead** | |
**(a)** $______________ $______________ $______________
### Instructions:
1. **Raw Materials Inventory:** This field is left blank as it pertains to materials, not labor.
2. **Factory Labor:** Calculate the total direct labor cost (75% of $508,800) and enter the value under Manufacturing Costs.
3. **Manufacturing Overhead:** Calculate the indirect labor cost (25% of $508,800) and enter the value under Work in Process Inventory (this field is generally used to account for costs incurred in the production process but not yet associated with completed goods).
Here are the computations to fill in the grid:
- **Direct Labor Cost:** \( 75\% \times \$508,800 \)
- **Indirect Labor Cost:** \( 25\% \times \$508,800 \)
These calculated values will then be placed in the appropriate fields of the grid.
