Hydro Paddle Boards, Inc. manufactures all products in a single production department. An individual job-order cost sheet is maintained for each job. The job-order cost sheet contains accumulated costs for each job, including actual direct materials, actual direct labor, and applied factory overhead.

Gross pay for direct labor is recorded by a debit to Work in Process. Salaries for all other factory personnel are recorded by a debit to Factory Overhead. Salaries of nonfactory personnel are recorded at the end of each month by a debit to the appropriate salary expense accounts. Deductions for employees FICA and federal income taxes are recorded whenever gross pay is recorded, using the simplified rates of 8% (for FICA, including Medicare) and 15% (for federal income tax).

Factory overhead is applied to each job based on 130% of direct labor cost for that job(was 125% in Dec). Hydro Paddle Boards, Inc. maintains only one factory overhead account. Remember that debits to Factory Overhead represent actual overhead and credits to Factory Overhead represent applied overhead.
