Question

Reynolds Manufacturers Inc. has estimated total factory overhead costs of $104,000 and expected direct labor hours of 13,000 for the current fiscal year. If job number 117 incurs 1,720 direct labor hours, Work in Process will be debited and Factory Overhead will be credited for a.$104,000 b.$52,000 c.$1,720 d.$13,760

Answer 1

Work in Process 13.760

Manufacturing Overhead 13,760

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 104,000 / 13,000

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $8 per direct labor hour

Now, we can allocate overhead to Job 117:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Allocated MOH= 8*1,720

Allocated MOH= $13,760

Work in Process 13.760

Manufacturing Overhead 13,760
