Chapter 2, Problem 19E
A machine shop manufactures a stainless steel part that is used in an assembled product. Materials charged to a particular job amounted to $600. At the point of final inspection, it was discovered that the material used was inferior to the specifications required by the engineering department; therefore, all units had to be scrapped.
Record the entries required for scrap under each of the following conditions:
- a. The revenue received for scrap is to be treated as a reduction in
manufacturing cost but cannot be identified with a specific job. The value of stainless steel scrap is stable and estimated to be $125 for this job. The scrap is sold two months later for cash at the estimated value of $125. - b. Revenue received for scrap is to be treated as a reduction in manufacturing cost but cannot be identified with a specific job. A firm price is not determinable for the scrap until it is sold. It is sold eventually for $75 cash.
- c. The production job is a special job, and the $85 received on account for the scrap is to be treated as a reduction in manufacturing cost. (A firm price is not determinable for the scrap until it is sold.)
- d. Only $40 cash was received for the scrap when it was sold in the following fiscal period. (A firm price is not determinable for the scrap until it is sold, and the amount to be received for the scrap is to be treated as other income.)

Jack Company's production report for Job #901 showed that 5 vehicle parts out of 100
vehicle parts are spoiled. Costs assigned prior to the inspection point are P10,000 per
part. When the spoilage is detected, the spoiled goods were valued at P2,000 per part,
the net disposal value.
Required: Compute the following:
(1) Jack determined that the spoilage is caused by the specifications of a particular
job. What amount should be debited to factory overhead?
(2) Based on your answers to (1), how much is the cost per good unit?
(3) If the spoilage is a normal characteristic of the production process, what
amount should be debited to factory overhead?
(4) If the spoilage is abnormal, how much is the cost per good unit?
