2. Computations
using a job order system
General Corporation employs a job order cost system. On May
1 the following balances were extracted from the general ledger;
Work in process $ 35,200
Finished goods 86,900
Cost of goods sold 128,700
Work in Process consisted of two jobs, no. 101 ($20,400) and
no. 103 ($14,800). During May, direct materials requisitioned from the
storeroom amounted to $96,500, and direct labor incurred totaled $114,500.
These figures are subdivided as follows:
Direct Materials
Direct Labor
Job No. Amount Job No. Amount
101 $5,000 101 $7,800
115 19,500 103
20,800
116 36,200 115
42,000
Other 35,800 116
18,000
$96,500 Other 25,900
$114,500
Job no. 115 was the only job in process at the end of the
month. Job no. 101 and three “other” jobs were sold during May at a
profit of 20% of cost. The “other” jobs contained material and labor
charges of $21,000 and $17,400, respectively.
General applies overhead daily at the rate of 150% of direct
labor cost as labor summaries are posted to job orders. The firm’s fiscal year
ends on May 31.
