Barbara's Holiday Styles has been busy in the month of November! It seems Barbara's marketing efforts have paid off, as she has

answered many calls to help decorate homes for the upcoming holidays. The company carries an inventory of decorative items in its

store and then installs them in creative and fun ways. The MOH costs are fairly low, since the company has just a small space to hold

the inventory. The applied MOH rate is $$10$ per direct labor hour.

During December, the following events occurred.

Purchased direct materials costing $$14,400$ on account.
