Chapter 3, Problem 3.26AE

Record manufacturing overhead (Learning Objectives 5 & 6)

Refer to the data in Exercise 3-25A. Smith’s accountant found an error in the expense records from the year reported. Depreciation on manufacturing plant and equipment was actually $364,000, not the $480,000 that had originally been reported. The unadjusted Cost of Goods Sold balance at year-end was $610,000.

Requirements

1. 1. Prepare the journal entry (entries) to record manufacturing overhead costs incurred.
2. 2. Prepare the journal entry to record the manufacturing overhead allocated to jobs in production.
3. 3. Use a T-account to determine whether manufacturing overhead is underallocated or overallocated and by how much.
4. 4. Record the entry to close out the underallocated or overallocated manufacturing overhead.
5. 5. What is the adjusted ending balance of Cost of Goods Sold?
