Compute the balance in the manufacturing overhead account on January 31. Debit or credit?Manufacturing overhead account balance on January 31 is ___________ and is ____________. (Debit or Credit)

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

1)

Prime Cost = Direct materials Used + Direct labor cost

= (Raw materials beg inv. + Raw materials purchased - Raw materials end. inv)

= (133000+191000-124000) + 400000

= 200000 + 400000

= 600,000

2)

Total manufacturing cost for January = Direct materials Used + Direct labor cost + manufacturing overhead

= 200000 + 400000 + (400000*0.6) = 200000+400000+240000= 840,000

3)

Cost of goods manufactured = total manufacturing cost for January + beginning Work in Process - Ending Work in Process

= $840000 + $235000 - $251000 = $824,000

4)

Cost of goods sold = cost of goods manufactured + beginning Finished goods - Ending Finished goods

= $824000 + $125000 - $117000 = $832,000

5)

manufacturing overhead account on january 31 = Applied Overhead - Actual overhead

= (400000*0.6) - $170000 = $70,000 (Credit balance)

So, Manufacturing overhead account balance on January 31 is $70,000 and is Credit.
