Question

Sawyer Company had the following information for the year: Direct materials used $ 197,700 Direct labor incurred (7,600 hours) $ 248,100 Actual manufacturing overhead incurred $ 335,000 Sawyer Company used a predetermined overhead rate using estimated overhead of $382,500 and 8,500 estimated direct labor hours. Assume the only inventory balance is an ending Finished Goods Inventory balance of $9,400. What was adjusted cost of goods sold

Answer 1

adjusted cost of goods sold is $771,400.

Step-by-step explanation:

Predetermined Overheads = Estimated Overheads ÷ Estimated Activity

= $382,500 ÷ 8,500

= $45

Calculate the Manufacturing Cost

Direct materials $ 197,700

Direct labor $ 248,100

Applied Overheads (7,600 × $45) $342,000

Cost of Goods Manufactured $787,800

Calculate the Cost of Sales

Beginning Finished Goods Inventory $0

Add Cost of Goods Manufactured $787,800

Less Ending Finished Goods Inventory ($9,400)

Cost of Goods Sold $778,400

Adjust the Cost of Sales

Applied Overheads : $342,000 > Actual Overheads $ 335,000, we say that overheads are over-applied.

Therefore,

Cost of Goods Sold $778,400

Less Overheads over-applied ($342,000 - $ 335,000) ($7,000)

Adjusted Cost of Goods Sold $771,400
