Step-by-step explanation:

Problem 3.7A

Northwest Company manufactures a single product. Selected data for the first quarter of the current year are as follows:

Sales ........................ $90,000

Cost of goods sold ............ 42,000

Gross margin ................. $48,000

Selling and administrative expenses ............ 28,000

Net operating income ............ $20,000

In addition, the following information is available:

a. During the first quarter, ending inventories of finished goods were $6,000 more than beginning inventories.

b. Cost of goods sold for the first quarter was composed of $40,000 of direct materials cost, $12,000 of direct labor cost, and $30,000 of manufacturing overhead cost.

Required:

Compute the cost of goods manufactured for the first quarter.

Solution

Cost of Goods Manufactured = Beginning Finished Goods Inventory + Cost of Goods Sold - Ending Finished Goods Inventory

Cost of Goods Manufactured = $0 + $42,000 - $6,000

Cost of Goods Manufactured = $36,000

Therefore, the cost of goods manufactured for the first quarter is $36,000. This can be further broken down into $40,000 of direct materials cost, $12,000 of direct labor cost, and $30,000 of manufacturing overhead cost, as given in the information.
