Jobs sold.arrow_forwardLuna Manufacturing Inc. completed Job 2525 on May 31, and there were no jobs in process in the plant. Prior to June 1, the predetermined overhead application rate for June was computed from the following data, based on an estimate of 5,000 direct labor hours: The factory has one production department and uses the direct labor hour method to apply factory overhead. Three jobs are started during the month, and postings are made daily to the job cost sheets from the materials requisitions and labor-time records. The following schedule shows the jobs and amounts posted to the job cost sheets: The factory overhead control account was debited during the month for actual factory overhead expenses of 27,000. On June 11, Job 2526 was completed and delivered to the customer using a mark-on percentage of 50% on manufacturing cost. On June 24, Job 2527 was completed and transferred to Finished Goods. On June 30, Job 2528 was still in process. Required: 1. Prepare job cost sheets for Jobs 2526, 2527, and 2528, including factory overhead applied when the job was completed or at the end of the month for partially completed jobs. 2. Prepare journal entries as of June 30 for the following: a. Applying factory overhead to production. b. Closing the applied factory overhead account. c. Closing the factory overhead account. d. Transferring the cost of the completed jobs to finished goods. e. Recording the cost of the sale and the sale of Job 2526.arrow_forwardAbbey Products Company is studying the results of applying factory overhead to production. The following data have been used: estimated factory overhead, 60,000; estimated materials costs, 50,000; estimated direct labor costs, 60,000; estimated direct labor hours, 10,000; estimated machine hours, 20,000; work in process at the beginning of the month, none. The actual factory overhead incurred for November was 80,000, and the production statistics on November 30 are as follows: Required: 1. Compute the predetermined rate, based on the following: a. Direct labor cost b. Direct labor hours c. Machine hours 2. Using each of the methods, compute the estimated total cost of each job at the end of the month. 3. Determine the under-or overapplied factory overhead, in total, at the end of the month under each of the methods. 4. Which method would you recommend? Why?arrow_forward
