Jones Company uses a job-order costing system with a predetermined overhead rate of 120% of direct labor cost. The job cost sheet for Job #420 listed $4,000 in direct materials cost and $5,000 in direct labor cost to manufacture 7,500 units. The unit cost of Job #420 is ___

$2.00 (Total cost of Job #420 = Direct materials + direct labor + overhead (predetermined overhead rate × direct labor cost) = $4,000 + $5,000 + 1.20 × $5,000 = $15,000 Unit product cost = $15,000 ÷ 7,500 units = $2.00 per unit.)

Job XYZ has a total manufacturing cost of $600. If the mark-up percentage is 40%, the job will sell for ___

$840 (600 x .4 = 240; 240 + 600 = 840)

Murphy Manufacturing estimated total manufacturing overhead for 2017 to be $100,000 and uses direct labor-hours as the allocation base. They estimated that 5,000 hours would be used. Actual overhead for 2017 was $120,000 and actual direct labor-hours were 7,500. How much overhead was applied to a job completed during 2017 that used 200 direct labor-hours?

4,000 (The predetermined overhead rate = $100,000 ÷ 5,000 direct labor-hours = $20 per direct labor-hour. The overhead applied to the job = $20 per direct labor-hours ×200 direct labor-hours = $4,000.)

Which of the following would not be a good allocation base for manufacturing overhead? Accounting hours Direct labor hours Units of product Machine hours

Accounting hours

Why do companies use a predetermined overhead rate rather than an actual overhead rate?

An actual overhead rate is not known until the end of the period

Which of the following is only true in a multiple predetermined overhead rate system?

Each production department may have its own predetermined overhead rate

Which of the following would NOT be considered a direct labor cost in a service firm that uses job-order costing? The salary of a surgeon at a hospital The salary of the manager at a hair salon The salary of an attorney at a law firm The wages of technicians at an auto repair shop

The salary of the manager at a hair salon

Which of the following would not be considered a job in a service firm that uses job-order costing? A client at a law firm A patient in a hospital A repair job at an auto repair shop The tax department in an accounting firm

Which of the following statements are true? In practice, most companies base their predetermined overhead rates on the allocation base at capacity. Too much fixed overhead may be applied to products when the predetermined overhead rate is based on estimated activity. When predetermined overhead rates are based on capacity, there will typically be large amounts of overapplied overhead. Total estimated overhead at capacity is generally larger than total estimated overhead at the expected level of activity.

Too much fixed overhead may be applied to products when the predetermined overhead rate is based on estimated activity. Total estimated overhead at capacity is generally larger than total estimated overhead at the expected level of activity.

overhead applied to the job
