The value of ending inventory using the weighted average method would be a. $15,966.60 b. $31,933.20 c. $23,133.20 d. $65,000.00

Explanation / Answer

5) The correct option is c) $6,319 which is calculated as follows:-

Direct Material Cost = $3,405

Direct Labor Cost = 54 labor hours*$13 = $702

Manufacturing Overhead applied to Job #8 = 158 machine hours*$14 per machine hour = $2,212

Total Cost recorded on job cost sheet for job #8 = $3,405+$702+$2,212 = $6,319

6) The correct option is a).If there is a debit balance in manufacturing overhead account at the end of the period,overhead was overapplied. because this statement is not true regarding job order cost and all the other three are true regarding job costing.

7) The correct option is d) a costume maker that makes speciality costumes for figure skaters because costume is made unit wise and after completion of one complete unit, another unit's production starts. Every costume is different from another in terms of design, length, size etc. Thus process costing can not be used in this situation.

8) The correct option is c) $23,133.20 which is calculated as follows:-

Value of ending inventory = (4,000*100%*$3.5833)+(4,000*50%*$4.40)

= $14,333.20+$8,800 = $23,133.20
