During March, workers completed Jobs 134, 158, and 212. Jobs 134 and 212 were delivered to customers during March. Actual overhead for the month of March was $176,300. Required: a) Calculate the predetermined overhead rate used by Magic Lens Inc., in 2017 b) Calculate the total manufacturing cost for March. g) Calculate the total cost for each of the five jobs as of March 31. d) Calculate the cost of goods manufactured for March. e) Calculate the balance in the Work in Progress Inventory account as of March 31 f Calculate the Cost of Goods Sold for March. a) Calculate the balance in the Finished goods Inventory account as of March 31. h) Magic Lens Inc., incurred $176,300 manufacturing overhead in the month of March.

Explanation / Answer

Solution a:

Predetermined overhead rate = Estimated overhead / Estimated direct labor hours

= $1,960,000 / 98000 = $20 per direct labor hour

Solution b:

Solution c:

Solution d:

Cost of goods manufactured for march = Cost of Job 134 + cost of job 158 + cost of job 212

= $134,000 + $142,110 + $213,850 = $489,960

Solution e:

Balance in work in progress inventory account as of March 31 = Cost of job 287 + cost of job 301

= $192,000 + $68,835 = $260,835

Solution f:

Cost of goods sold for march = Cost of job 134 + cost of job 212

= $134,000 + $213,850 = $347,850

Solution g:

Balance in finished goods inventory account as of march 31 = Cost of job 158 = $142,110

Solution h:

Manufacturing overhead incurred = $176,300

Manufacturing overhead applied = $160,000

Underapplied overhead = $176,300 - $160,000 = $16,300

Solution i:

Adjsuted cost of goods sold = Unadjusted cost of goods sold + Underapplied overhead

= $347,850 + $16,300 = $364,150
