Preparing Entries for Manufacturing Costs

Roy’s Appliance Repair Shop uses a job order costing system to track the cost of each repair. Roy’s applies its “garage or shop” overhead at a rate of $25 per direct labor hour spent on each repair. Roy’s uses the following accounts to track the cost of all repairs:

Raw Materials (parts and supplies)

 

 

 

Repair Jobs in Process

 

 

 

Cost of Repairs Completed and Sold

 

 

 

Garage/Shop* Overhead Costs

 

 

 * Because an auto shop does not manufacture a product, the overhead cost would include all of the indirect costs that are incurred in the “garage or shop” that cannot be traced to a specific repair job.

The following transactions occurred during the most recent month:

(a)Purchased raw materials (parts and supplies) on account $21,000.

(b)Used $16,000 in raw materials (parts and supplies). Of this, $14,000 was for major parts that were traceable to individual repair jobs, and the remainder was for incidental supplies such as lubricants, rags, fuel, and so on.

(c)Recorded a total of $8,000 in direct labor cost (for 400 hours) that are owed but not yet paid.

(d)Applied overhead to repair jobs at a rate of $25 per direct labor hour.

(e)Recorded the following actual overhead costs:

Rent on garage (pre-paid in the prior month)

14,000

Depreciation on repair equipment

2,000

Garage supervisor’s salary (owed but not yet paid)

3,000

(f) Completed repair jobs costing $45,000 and charged customers at cost plus 30 percent. (Note: You can bypass the Finished Goods Inventory account, which is not appropriate in this context.)

Required:

Prepare journal entries for transactions (a)(f) using the account names shown and other appropriate accounts such as Cash, Payables, Accumulated Depreciation, Prepaids, and Sales Revenue.
