The company also had one job in Finished Goods at the beginning of 2018. This was Job 111, which consisted of 80 units with a production cost of $500 for each unit. For 2018, the company will charge overhead to jobs using direct labor HOURS. The estimated direct labor hours for 2018 was 9,000, and the estimated overhead cost for 2018 was $144,000. The following information shows what happened to the only 4 jobs that the company worked on during 2018:

-------------------------Job 222--------Job 333 --------Job 444--------Job 555

Direct materials:----$43,000--------$51,000---------$17,000-------$19,000

Direct labor hours:---2,000 hours 4,000 hours 3,000 hours 1,000 hours

Units on completed job 200 units, 1,000 units, Unfinished job, 40 units

The actual cost of all direct labor was $15 per hour. The company purchased $166,000 of total materials during 2018. During 2018, the company finished Jobs 222, 333, and 555. Job 444 was NOT completed during 2018. The actual overhead incurred during 2018 was $175,000. Of the total overhead amount of $175,000, $17,000 was for indirect materials used. During 2018, the company sold 60 units from Job 111 for $800 each,150 units from Job 222 for $1,000 each, 525 units from Job 333 for $400 each, and 32 units from Job 555 for $1,500 each. The total period expenses for 2018 were $130,000.

1. Compute the underallocated or overallocated overhead for 2018, and tell whether it is underallocated or overallocated.

2. Assume that you are going to prorate (allocate) your answer in question 1 using the total balances in the appropriate accounts at the end of the year. Compute the PERCENTAGE that would be charged to Cost of Goods Sold using this method. You do not have to actually do the prorating. Just tell me the percentage, and round that percentage to the nearest whole per cent, please.

3. Now assume that you want to prorate your answer in question 1 using the most theoretically correct method. Round your percentages to the nearest per cent, but this time complete the proration process by showing the amount of correction to each account, and then compute the ADJUSTED amount of overhead in Work in Process Control.

4. Using actual costing based on a time period of one year, compute the actual overhead rate for 2018. Then compute the total actual overhead that would have been charged to Job 444 during 2018 using this rate.

A. Does the amount of actual overhead you just computed for Job 444 equal the adjusted overhead balance that you computed for Work in Process in question 3? Should it be equal?

5. Prepare, in good form, a Schedule of Cost of Goods Manufactured for 2018 for the company. You do not need a heading on your schedule, but it should otherwise be in good form.

6. Assuming that all underallocated or overallocated overhead is charged totally to Cost of Goods Sold, prepare in good form an income statement for 2018 for the company. You do not need a heading on your income statement, but it should otherwise be in good form.
