Date Explanation Debit Credit Balance
2017
Dec. 31 Direct materials cost 1,500,000 1,500,000

31 Overhead applied 600,000 2,400,000
31 To finished goods 2,350,000 50,000
1. Determine the predetermined overhead rate used (based on direct materials cost).

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a. The predetermined overhead rate is

= Overhead applied ÷ direct material cost

= $600,000 ÷ $1,500,000

= 40%

2. The direct labor cost and the overhead cost assigned is

= Total cost in process - applied overhead - material cost

= $50,000 - ($30,000 × 0.40) - $30,000

= $8,000

Hence, the same would be considered
