Sagot :

Answer:

Solution 1 : Total Manufacturing Cost of Job S is $434,847.5 while for Job T is $ 392,247.5

Solution 2 : The amount of overheads has been over-applied and the Cost of Goods Sold will decrease by $94,695

Explanation:

Solution 1

Particulars                                             Job S ($)                Job T ($)

Direct material                                47,700               113,450

Direct labor                                        64,500                54,000

Overhead Applied (Hours* $51.50)      322,647.5       224,797.5

Total manufacturing cost                 434,847.5       392,247.5

Solution 2

In order to calculate the amount of over-applied or under-applied, we will take the difference between the overheads applied and the actual overheads incurred during the period. If the applied overheads are more than the actual then the amount has been over-applied and the Cost of Goods Sold will decrease. However, in case the overheads were under-applied then the Cost of Goods Sold would increase. The calculation has been done below:

Actual Overhead = $86,250 + $215,500 + $151,000 = $452,750

Applied overhead = 322,647.5 + 224,797.5 = $547,445

Over-applied/Under-applied overhead = Applied overhead - Actual Overhead

547,445 - 452,750 = $94,695. The overheads has been over-applied.  

Cost of Goods Sold account will be decreased by $94,695.
