Example (1): (4-1)
Destin Products uses a job-costing system with two direct-cost categories (direct materials and direct
manufacturing labor) and one manufacturing overhead cost pool. Destin allocates manufacturing
overhead costs using direct manufacturing labor costs. Destin provides the following information:
Required:
1. Compute the actual and budgeted manufacturing overhead rates for 2011.
2. During March, the job-cost record for Job 626 contained the following information:
3. At the end of 2011, compute the under- or overallocated manufacturing overhead under normal
costing. Why is there no under- or overallocated overhead under actual costing?
SOLUTION
Required (1): Compute the actual and budgeted manufacturing overhead rates for 2011.
Required (2): Compute the cost of Job 626 using (a) actual costing and (b) normal costing.
(1)
Actual = Actual D.L Cost x Actual Rate = $30,000 x 190% = $57,000
(1)
Normal = Actual D.L Cost x Budgeted Rate = $30,000 x 180% = $54,000
1
Required (3): Compute the under- or overallocated manufacturing overhead under normal
costing. Why is there no under- or overallocated overhead under actual costing?
Over/Under Allocated Manuf. Overhead = Actual Manuf. Overhead – Allocated Manuf. Overhead
Why?

Manufacturing cost data for Orlando Company, which uses a job order cost system, are presented
below.
Required:
Indicate the missing amount for each letter. Assume that in all cases manufacturing over- head is
applied on the basis of direct labor cost and the rate is the Same in all Cases.

SOLUTION
(a) Direct Material Used = Total Manufacturing Costs – Direct Labor – Manuf. Overhead
(b) Work in Process 1/1/14 = Total Cost of Work in Process – Total Manufacturing Costs
(c) Work in Process 12/31/14 = Total Cost of Work in Process – Cost of Goods Manufactured
(d) IF: Manuf. Overhead Rate is the same in all cases, So, by using the data of Case (A)
(e) Total Manufacturing Costs = Direct Material + Direct Labor + Manuf. Overhead
(f) Total Cost of Work in Process = Total Manufacturing Costs + Work in Process 1/1/14
(g) Cost of Goods Manufactured = Total Cost of Work in Process - Work in Process 12/31/14
IF: Direct Material + Direct Labor + Manuf. Overhead Cost = Total Manufacturing Cost
(h & I)
→ $63,150 + (h) + 0.85 (h) = $213,000
(h) = $81,000
(j) Total Cost of Work in Process = Total Manufacturing Costs + Work in Process 1/1/14
(k) Work in Process 12/31/14 = Total Cost of Work in Process – Cost of Goods Manufactured

Example (10): (4-1) Job costing, journal entries.
The University of Chicago Press is wholly owned by the university. It performs the bulk of its work for
other university departments, which pay as though the press were an out- side business enterprise.
The press also publishes and maintains a stock of books for general sale. The press uses normal costing
to cost each job. Its job-costing system has two direct-cost categories (direct materials and direct
manufacturing labor) and one indirect-cost pool (manufacturing overhead, allocated on the basis of
direct manufacturing labor costs).
Required:
1. Prepare an overview diagram of the job-costing system at the University of Chicago Press.
2. Prepare journal entries to summarize the 2011 transactions. As your final entry, dispose of the
year-end under- or overallocated manufacturing overhead as a write-off to Cost of Goods Sold.
Number your entries. Explanations for each entry may be omitted.
3. Show posted T-accounts for all inventories, Cost of Goods Sold, Manufacturing Overhead
Control, and Manufacturing Overhead Allocated.

Example (11): (4-25)
Production Company produces gadgets for the coveted small appliance market. The following data
reflect activity for the year 2011:
Production Co. uses a normal costing system and allocates overhead to work in process at a rate of
$2.60 per direct manufacturing labor dollar. Indirect materials are insignificant so there is no
inventory account for indirect materials
Required:
1. Prepare journal entries to record the transactions for 2011 including an entry to close out over-
or under-allocated overhead to cost of goods sold. For each journal entry indicate the source
document that would be used to authorize each entry. Also note which subsidiary ledger, if any,
should be referenced as backup for the entry.
2. Post the journal entries to T-accounts for all of the inventories, Cost of Goods Sold, the
Manufacturing Overhead Control Account, and the Manufacturing Overhead Allocated Account.
