Document Summary

Chapter 5: job-order costing: describe the difference between job order costing and process costing, and identify the types of firms that could use each method. Job order firms produce heterogeneous products/services each unit or batch has a difference total cost. Job order firms include construction, custom cabinetry, dentistry, medical services, and automotive repair. In process firms, the cost of one batch or unit is the same as another batch or unit. Process firms include paint manufacturing, cheque clearing, and toy manufacturing: compute the predetermined overhead rate, and use the rate to assign overhead to units or services produced. Predetermined overhead is total budgeted overhead divided by total budgeted activity level. Overhead is applied by multiplying the rate by the actual activity usage. Applied overhead is added to total actual direct materials and direct labour cost, which is divided by number of units to yield unit cost. Identify and set up the source documents used in job order costing.

Case 3-49

Avid Assemblers uses normal job-order costing to assign costs toproducts. The company assembles and packages 25 different productsaccording to customer specifications. Products are worked on inbatches of 20 to 40 units. Each batch is given a job number. OnOctober 1, the company had the following balances:

Raw materials $9,800
Work in process 65,847
Finished goods 30,640


Work in process consisted of the following jobs:

Job 22 Job 24 Job 25
Direct materials $6,200 $5,190 $4,800
Direct labour 10,500 9,210 9,500
Applied overhead 7,350 6,447 6,650
Total $24,050 $20,847 $20,950
Number of units 20 40 30


Finished goods consisted of Job 23, with the following costs:

Job 23
Direct materials $8,200
Direct labour 13,200
Applied overhead 9,240
Total $30,640
Number of units 50


Shown below are the direct cost data related to jobs started inOctober:

Job 26 Job 27 Job 28 Total
Direct materials $5,180 $5,600 $4,200 $14,980
Direct labour 11,200 9,340 5,910 26,450
Number of units 20 30 20


Other information:

1. Direct materials and direct labour added tobeginning work in process in October were as follows:
Job 22 Job 24 Job 25 Total
Direct materials $1,150 $610 $1,500 $3,260
Direct labour 3,000 4,500 5,500 $13,000
2. Overhead is applied at a predetermined rate basedon the direct labour cost.
3. Actual expenses for October were as follows:
Supervisory salaries $6,000 Supplies (factory) $2,100
Factory rent 5,000 Selling expenses 8,500
Depreciation (machines) 5,000 Property tax and insurance 2,250
Indirect labour 4,000 CPP, EI, and other benefits* 4,200

* 80% of employer contributions and benefits relate to factorypersonnel.
4. Purchases of direct materials (raw materials)during October amounted to $28,500. Indirect materials (supplies)are handled in a separate account.
5. Only Job Nos. 27 and 28 are still in process atclosing on October 31. Finished goods consisted only of Job No. 25at month end.

the gilster company, a machine tooling firm, has several plants,one plant, located in St falls, minnesota, uses a job order costingsystem for its batch production processes. The st. falls plant hastwo departments through which most jobs pass. plantwide overhead,which includes the plant managers salary, accounting personnal,cafeteria, and human services, is budgeted at $ 200,000. during thepast year, actual plantwide overhead was 190,000. Each departmentsoverhead consists primarily of depreciation and othermachine-related expenses. Selected budgeted and actual data fromthe st. falls plant for the past year are as follows

Budgeted department overhead

(excludes plant wideoverhead)...............................DepartmentA....100,000.......Department B.....500,000

Direct laborhours.........................................................50,000......................................10,000

Machinehours...............................................................10,000......................................50,000

Actual activity

Direct laborhours.........................................................51,000.......................................9.000

Machinehours...............................................................10,500........................................52,000


For the coming year, the accountants at st. falls are in theprocess of helping the sales force create bids for several jobs.Projected data pertaining to job no. 110 are as follows


Directmaterials.......................................................20,000

Direct labor cost:

Department A.( 2,000HR).....................................30,000

department B ( 500hr)............................................ 6,000

Machine hours projected:

Department A........................................................... 100

DepartmentB............................................................1,200

Unitsproduced..........................................................10,000

Instructions round overhead rate and unit costs to 2 decimalplaces and round other cost calculations to the nearest dollar.

.

A) Assume the st. falls plant uses a single plantwide overheadrate to assign all over head( plantwide and department) costs tojobs. use expected direct labor hours to compute the overhead rate.find the overhead rate and determine the projected amount of totalmanufacturing costs per unit in job no. 110.


B) recalculate the projected manufacturing costs for job no. 110using three separate rates: one rate for plantwide overhead and twoseparate department overhead rates, all based on machine-hours.


C) The sales policy at st. falls dictates that job bids becalculated by adding 30 percent to total manaufacturing costs. whatwould be the bid for job no. 110 using 1) the overhead rate frompart A and 2) the overhead rate from part B? explain why the bidsdiffer. which of the over head allocation methods would yourecommend and why?


D) using allocation rates in part B, compare the under-or overapplied overhead for the st. falls plant for the year. explain theimpact on net income of assigning the under- overapplied overheadto cost of goods sold rather than prorating the amount betweeninventories and cost of goods sold.



E) A st. falls subcontractor has offered to produce the partsfor job 110. for a price of $ 8 per unit. Assume the st. fallssales force has already committed to the bid price based on thecalculations in part B. should st. falls buy the 8 per unit partfrom the subcontractor or continue to make the parts for job no.110 itself.


F) would your response to part e change if the st. falls plantcould use the facilities necessary to produce parts for job no. 110for another job that could earn incremental profit of $ 15,000


G) if the subcontractor mentioned in part e is located inmexico, what additional international environmental issues, otherthan price, will gilster and st. falls management need toevaluate.
