Production Company uses a normal job-costing system and allocates overhead to work-in-process at a rate of $2.50 per direct manufacturing labour dollar. Indirect materials are insignificant, so there is no inventory account for indirect materials.
Required
1. Prepare journal entries to record the 2015 transactions including an entry to close out over allocated or under allocated overhead to cost of goods sold. For each journal entry, indicate the source document that would be used to authorize each entry. Also note which subsidiary ledger, if any, should be referenced as backup for the entry.
2. Post the journal entries to T-accounts for all of the inventories, Cost of Goods Sold, Manufacturing Overhead Control, and Manufacturing Overhead Allocated accounts.
