Job order cost system


Previous lecture
 The following two learning
objectives have been covered:
1. Define job order costing and
identify the types of industries that
would be most apt to use this
system.
2. Demonstrate the mechanics of a job
order costing system.
This lecture

 Illustrate the treatment of spoilage,


defective units, scrap materials,
and waste material under job order
costing.

scrap materials, and waste material

1. Allocated (applied) to all jobs:
 When normal spoilage develops, its total cost is
removed from the WIP inventory

 When normal spoilage develops, only the salvage value


is removed from the WIP inventory

Accounting for spoiled units
Abnormal spoilage
The total cost of the abnormal spoiled units should be
removed from the Work-in-Process Inventory account.

The difference between the total cost of abnormal spoilage


and its salvage value is considered a loss and appears in
the income statement.

Accounting for defective units
 Normal defective units:
The normal defective rework costs are
included in the total job order costs.
 Abnormal defective units:
The number of defective units that exceeds
what is considered to be normal.
The abnormal defective rework costs are
considered loss and appear in the income
statement.
Accounting for defective units

either of the following methods:

2. Allocated (applied) to specific jobs:
 When rework costs are incurred, work-in-process
inventory for the specific job is charged and the
entry would be:

Accounting for defective units
Abnormal defective units
The total cost of reworking abnormal defective units
should be charged to a Loss from Abnormal Defective
Units account instead of the Work-in-Process
Inventory account because it is the result of inefficient
operations and the entry would be:

Example
Ahmed Company makes pianos and uses a job order cost
system to record and distribute costs. Work is completed in one
department, Production. The following information relates to
Job 491 which is the production of 52 high-quality pianos:

 Spoiled Units
Wellgoes Company put 1,331 units into production for job 3. Spoilage

costs were $40 per unit. Only, 1,300 good units are produced and the rest

are spoiled, with a salvage value of $6 each. Spoilage of 20 units was

anticipated.(Normal)

Required: Prepare the journal entries necessary to record the above

information, assuming that the normal spoilage costs were:

A. Allocated to all jobs (included in the factory overhead application rate).

B. Allocated to specific jobs (not included in the factory overhead application

rate).
• Defective Units
Cosmo Company placed 16,500 units into production for job 16. Normal
defective units for this job are estimated to be 100 units. The actual defective
units were 250. The total cost to rework the defective units is as follows:
Direct materials ……………………….. $300
Direct labor ………………………….. 450
Applied Factory overhead
(30% of direct labor)…………………… 135
Total …………………..... $885
Required: prepare the journal entries necessary to record the above
information, assuming that the normal rework costs were:
