Service department cost allocation

image text in transcribed

I've done the question myself and it is perfect, the only thing i'm finding impossible for me is the last part, the T-Accounts for Overheads, please provide proper T-Accounts with all the data needed in it. You can just do it for the direct method and i can do the rest. Just in case you dont want to waste time on solving these i'll give to the answer for direct method, S1 $20,000 will be reallocated to P1 $15,000 and P2 $5,000, and S2 $25,000 to P1 $10,294 and P2 $14,706. Total costs are P1 $85,294 and P2 $64,706

Thanks.
