Final answer:
Juanita Corporation should transfer a total of $1730 to finished goods inventory for the job completed in November, which accounts for the initial costs and the additional direct labor and applied overhead.
Step-by-step explanation:
To calculate the total cost Juanita Corporation would transfer to finished goods inventory for the job completed in November, we need to add the additional direct labor cost of $100 to the previous total costs and then apply overhead based on the new total direct labor cost. The job cost initially was direct materials at $480, direct labor at $150, and applied manufacturing overhead at $600. When an additional $100 of labor is needed, the direct labor cost becomes $250 ($150 + $100).
Assuming that the rate of overhead application remains consistent, the overhead applied on the additional labor would be the overhead application rate times $100. Given that initially $600 of overhead was applied on $150 of direct labor, the overhead application rate is $600 / $150 = 4 (or 400%). Therefore, the overhead applied for the additional $100 direct labor is $100 * 4 = $400. Adding this to the initial overhead, we get a total applied overhead of $600 + $400 = $1000.
The total cost transferred to finished goods inventory is the initial direct materials, direct labor, and applied overhead plus the new direct labor and applied overhead: $480 + $250 + $1000 = $1730.
