Question

Luzadis Company makes furniture using the latest automated technology. The company uses a job-order costing system and applies manufacturing overhead cost to products on the basis of machine-hours. The predetermined overhead rate was based on a cost formula that estimates $1,615,000 of total manufacturing overhead for an estimated activity level of 85,000 machine-hours. During the year, a large quantity of furniture on the market resulted in cutting back production and a buildup of furniture in the company's warehouse. The company's cost records revealed the following actual cost and operating data for the year: 77,000 $1,574,000 Machine-hours Manufacturing overhead cost Inventories at year-end: Raw materials Work in process (includes overhead applied of $73,150) Finished goods (includes overhead applied of $277,970) Cost of goods sold (includes overhead applied of $1,111, 880) $ $ 14,000 94,000 257 299 $1,428,800 tha Required: 1. Compute the underapplied or overapplied overhead. 2. Assume that the company closes any underapplied or overapplied overhead to Cost of Goods Sold. Prepare the appropriate journal entry. (If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.) 3. Assume that the company allocates any underapplied or over appliedoverhead proportionally to Work in Process, Finished Goods, and Cost of Goods Sold. Prepare the appropriate journal entry. (If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.) 4. How much higher or lower will net operating income be if the underapplied or overapplied overhead is allocated to Work in Process, Finished Goods, and Cost of Goods Sold rather than being closed to Cost of Goods Sold? Complete this question by entering your answers in the tabs below. Req 1 Req 2 Req 3 Req 4 Compute the underapplied or overapplied overhead. Reg 1 Reg 2 >

Answer 1

1) Applied overhead = 77000*19 = 1463000

Actual overhead = 1574000

Under applied overhead = 1463000-1574000 = 111000

2) Adjusting entry

Date	account and explanation	Debit	Credit
	Cost of goods sold	111000
	Manufacturing overhead		111000

3) Adjusting entry

Date	account and explanation	Debit	Credit
	Work in process (111000*5%)	5550
	Finished goods	21090
	Cost of goods sold	84360
	Manufacturing overhead		111000

4) Net operating income increase by (5550+21090) = 26640
