CHAPTER 2A

JOB ORDER COSTING

CHAPTER LEARNING OBJECTIVES

  1. Describe cost systems and the flow of costs in job order system. Cost accounting involves the procedures for measuring, recording, and reporting product and service costs. From the data accumulated, companies determine the total cost and the unit cost of each product. The two basic types of cost accounting systems are process cost and job order cost.

In job order costing, companies first accumulate manufacturing costs in three accounts: Raw Materials Inventory, Factory Labor, and Manufacturing Overhead. They then assign the accumulated costs to Work in Process Inventory and eventually to Finished Goods Inventory and Cost of Goods Sold.

2. Use a job cost sheet to assign costs to work in process. A job cost sheet is a form used to record the costs chargeable to a specific job and to determine the total and unit costs of the completed job. Job cost sheets constitute the subsidiary ledger for the Work in Process Inventory control account.

3. Demonstrate how to determine and use the predetermined overhead rate. The predetermined overhead rate is based on the relationship between estimated annual overhead costs and estimated annual operating activity. This is expressed in terms of a common activity base, such as direct labor cost. Companies use this rate to assign overhead costs to work in process and to specific jobs.

4. Record manufacturing and service jobs completed and sold. When jobs are completed, companies add the cost to Finished Goods Inventory and remove it from Work in Process Inventory. When a job is sold, companies increase Cost of Goods Sold and decrease Finished Goods Inventory for the cost of the goods.

5. Distinguish between under- or overapplied manufacturing overhead. Underapplied manufacturing overhead indicates that the overhead assigned to work in process is less than the overhead incurred. Overapplied overhead indicates that the overhead assigned to work in process is greater than the overhead incurred.

TRUE-FALSE STATEMENTS

1. Cost accounting is primarily concerned with accumulating information about product costs.

2. A job order cost system is most appropriate when a large volume of uniform products is produced.

3. A process cost accounting system is appropriate for similar products that are continuously mass produced.

4. The perpetual inventory method cannot be used in a job order cost system.

5. A job order cost system and a process cost system are two alternative methods for accumulating product costs.

6. A job order cost system identifies costs with a particular job rather than with a set time period.

7. A company may use either a job order cost system or a process cost system, but not both.

8. Raw Materials Inventory, Factory Labor, and Manufacturing Overhead are all control accounts is a job order cost system.

9. Accumulating and assigning manufacturing costs are two important activities in a job order cost system.

10. Recording the acquisition cost of raw materials is a part of accumulating manufacturing costs.

11. The acquisition of raw materials increases an asset.

12. The Work in Process Inventory account is decreased for all raw materials purchase returns and allowances.

13. When raw materials are received, no effort is made at this point to associate the cost of the materials with specific jobs.

14. When raw materials are purchased, the Work in Process Inventory account is increased.

15. Factory labor should be assigned to selling and administrative expenses on a proportionate basis.

16. Benefits and payroll taxes associated with factory workers should be accumulated as a part of Factory Labor.

17. Job order cost sheets constitute the subsidiary ledger of the control account, Work in Process Inventory.

18. In a job order cost system, each entry to the Work in Process Inventory account should be accompanied by a posting to one or more job cost sheets.

19. Direct materials requisitioned increase the Work in Process Inventory account and the job cost sheets for the individual jobs on which the materials are used.

20. Manufacturing overhead is the only product cost that can be assigned to jobs as soon as the costs are incurred.

21. There should be a separate job cost sheet for each job.

22. Actual manufacturing overhead costs are assigned to each job by tracing each overhead cost to a specific job.

23. The equation for the predetermined overhead rate is estimated annual overhead costs divided by an estimated volume of annual operating activity.

24. Actual manufacturing overhead costs should be recorded in the Work in Process Inventory account as they are incurred.

25. A job order cost sheet be destroyed as soon as the job is complete.

26. Finished Goods Inventory is increased for the cost of jobs completed during a period.

27. When goods are sold, Cost of Goods Sold is increased and Work in Process Inventory account is decreased.

28. Total manufacturing costs for a period consists of the costs of direct materials used, the cost of direct labor incurred, and the manufacturing overhead applied during the period.

29. Overapplied overhead means that actual manufacturing overhead costs were greater than the manufacturing overhead costs applied to jobs.

30. At the end of the year, the amount of the overapplied overhead is recorded as a decrease to Cost of Goods Sold.

31. A cost accounting system consists of manufacturing cost accounts that are fully integrated into the accounting records of a company.

32. The cost of raw materials purchased is recorded as a decrease to Raw Materials Inventory when materials are received.

33. Requisitions for direct materials are recorded daily to the individual job cost sheets.

34. The predetermined overhead rate is based on the relationship between estimated annual overhead costs and estimated volume of annual operating activity expressed in terms of a common activity base.

35. At the end of the year, underapplied overhead is usually recorded as a decrease to Cost of Goods Sold.

Totals $8,500 $10,400

Foster applies manufacturing overhead to jobs at an overhead rate of 70% of direct labor cost. Job No. 221 is completed during the month.

Instructions

(a) Using the grid below:

(1) Enter the beginning Work in Process Inventory balance, prepare summary entries to record the raw materials requisitioned, factory labor used, the assignment of manufacturing overhead to jobs, and the completion of Job No. 221. Use (+) to indicate increases and (–) to indicate decreases.

(2) Calculate the balance of the Work in Process Inventory account at April 30.

(b) Prove the agreement of the Work in Process Inventory account with the job cost sheets.
