Job Cost, Applied Overhead, Unit Cost
Bostian Company uses a normal job-order costing system. It processes most jobs through two departments. Selected budgeted and actual data for the past year follow. Data for one of several jobs completed during the year also follow.
Bostian Company uses a plantwide, predetermined overhead rate to assign overhead (OH) to jobs. Direct labor hours (DLH) is used to compute the predetermined overhead rate. Bostian prices its jobs at cost plus 30 percent.
Required:
Compute the predetermined overhead rate.

Required:
Recalculate the unit manufacturing cost for Job 10 using departmental overhead rates. Use direct labor hours for Department A and machine hours for Department B. Does this approach provide a more accurate unit cost? Explain.

Required:
Assume that Job 10 was completed in May and sold in September. Using your work from Requirement 4, prepare journal entries for the completion and sale of Job 10.
Predetermined overhead rate = Total budgeted overhead for both departments/Total budgeted direct labor hours for both departments
=(100000+500000)/(50000+10000)
= 600000/60000
=$10 per direct labor hour
Predetermined overhead rate= $10 per direct labor hour
Step 1: Compute the predetermined overhead rate.
Budgeted Overhead in Department A & B / Total Expected Direct Labor Hours = Predetermined Overhead Rate
$600,000 / 60,000 hours = $10 per direct labor hour
Step 2: Compute the total manufacturing costs.
Direct Materials | $20,000 |
Direct Labor | 36,000 |
Overhead ($10 x 6,000 DLH) | 60,000 |
Total Manufacturing Costs | $116,000 |
6,000 DLH are the total DLH used by Department A and B for Job 10
Step 3: Compute the per-unit manufacturing cost.
Total Manufacturing Costs / Units Produced = Per-unit Manufacturing Costs
$116,000 / 10,000 = $11.60
$11.60
Successful completion of Task 10

Work in Process — Department B — Expense $51,000
$20,000 to be credited for Materials Inventory
$87,000 to be credited to Manufacturing Overhead
Wages Payable Credit totaling $36,000

Successful completion of Task 10
In order to finish Job 10, you need to make two entries in your diary. The first item details the expenses incurred for the job's supplies as well as the labor required to complete it. The charges that were incurred for the job's overhead were recorded in the second entry of the journal. The direct labor cost of $36,000 is credited to the Work in Process-Department A account as well as the Work in Process-Department B account. The cost of the supplies, which is $20,000, is debited to the Materials Inventory account. The cost of the manufacturing overhead, which comes to $87,000, is deducted from both the Work in Process account for Department A and the Work in Process account for Department B. The direct labor cost of $36,000 is credited to the account that is responsible for paying salaries.
The purchase of Job 10
The purchase and selling of Job 10 each need their own entry in the logbook. The income earned through the selling of the employment is the subject of the first entry. The second column details the total cost of the project in addition to the cost of the products that were sold. The proceeds of the sale of Job 10, totaling $78,300, are deposited into the accounts receivable account, which results in a negative in that account. The same amount is credited to the account that tracks income from sales. The whole amount of $78,000 that was spent on Job 10 has been deposited to the account for completed goods inventory. The same amount is deducted from the account that tracks the cost of products sold. In the end, an extra $300 is credited to the account that is responsible for the cost of products sold. This amount represents the difference between the income made from the sale of Job 10 and the cost of Job 10.
Utilization of a Predetermined Overhead Rate by the Bostian Company
The Bostian Company allocates the overhead expenses associated with tasks based on a plant-wide rate that has been defined. This price is determined by the amount of direct work hours that are anticipated to be performed. The preset rate is arrived at by dividing the overhead expenditures planned for the project by the direct labor hours budgeted for the project. During the course of the previous year, the Bostian Company's Department A and Department B planned overhead expenses of $100,000 and $500,000, respectively. The hours of direct work that were allotted in the budget were split as follows: 50,000 for Department A and 10,000 for Department B. Therefore, the fixed overhead cost for Department A is $2, whereas the fixed overhead cost for Department B is $50.
The cost of job number 10
Bostian Company rates its work at cost + 30 percent. The total amount that Job 10 will cost is $144,000. This includes the cost of supplies, the cost of direct labor, and the cost of overhead. Therefore, the cost of Job 10 is $187,200, which is equal to $144,000 plus 30%.

Department B = 1200*10 = | 12000 | $ 22,000 | |
Total cost of Job 10 | $ 78,000 | ||
Units produced | 10000 | ||
Manufacturing cost per unit | $ 7.80 | ||
This approach provides a more accurate estimate of the cost of production. The | |||
reason is that it uses a separate predetermined OH rate for the two departments | |||
instead of a composite rate. | |||
Using a composite rate is a broad averaging of the overhead costs using a | |||
single cost driver [DLH]. In contrast the department rate uses separate cost | |||
driver for each of the departments which, provide for more rational allocation | |||
of OH. | |||
5] | Price = 78,000*130% = | $ 1,01,400 | |
Step 1: Fist step is to compute for the Predetermine Overhead Rate
Predetermine Overhead Rate = Total Budgeted Overhead of the 2 departments/ Total Expected Activity
= ($100,000+500,000)/(50,000+10,000)
= $10
Step 2: Allocate the Overhead Rate to the 2 Departments
For Department A =Budgeted Overhead/ Expected Activity= $100,000/50,000 = $2
For Department B= Budgeted Overhead/Expected Machine Hours= 500,000/50,000 = $10
Thus,
For Department A = Direct Labor Hours x $2 = 5,000 x $2 = $10,000
For Department B = Machine Hours x $10 = 1,200 x $10 = $12,000
TOTAL OVERHEAD ALLOCATED = $10,000 + $12,000 = $22,000
Step 3 : Calculate the total Manufacturing Costs
Direct Materials $20,000
Direct Labor ( $30,000 +$6,000) $36,000
Overhead Allocated $22,000
Total Manufacturing Costs $78,000
