Journalize the entry to record the factory labor costs for the week. If an amount box does not require an entry, leave it blank.

Answer 1

Total productive hours worked on each job is as follows:

Tom Couro = Job 301 + Job 302 + Job 303 = 10 + 15 + 13 = 38

David Clancy = Job 301 + Job 302 + Job 303 = 12 + 12 + 14 = 38

Jose Cano = Job 301 + Job 302 + Job 303 = 11 + 13 + 15 = 39

WIP = (38*22) + (38*36) + (39*28)

WIP = 1216 + 1368 + 1092

WIP = 3,676

Indirect labor = (2*32) + (2*36) + (1*28)

Indirect labor = 64 + 72 + 28

Indirect labor = 164
