manufactured$1,557,000?Required:a. What is the ending balance in Raw Materials?b. What is the ending balance in Work in Process?
What will be an ideal response?
a. The ending balance in Raw Materials is computed as follows:
*33,000 + 497,000 ? 452,000 = 78,000
b. The ending balance in Work in Process is computed as follows:
Predetermined overhead rate = Estimated total manufacturing overhead cost ÷ Estimated total amount of the allocation base
= $567,000 ÷ 36,000 direct labor-hours = $15.75 per direct labor-hour
Overhead applied = Predetermined overhead rate × Amount of the allocation base incurred
= $15.75 per direct labor-hour × 45,000 direct labor-hours = $708,750
*20,000 + (452,000 + 591,000 + 708,750) ? 1,557,000 = 20,000 + (1,751,750) ? 1,557,000 = 214,750
