Q3 Part 2 Problem Solving on Job Order Costing 1st Semester A.Y.

2021-2022

Problem 1

S5Tank Co. uses a job order costing system and the following information is available from its records. The
company has 3 jobs in process: #5, #8, and #12.

Raw material used P120,000

Direct labor per hour P8.50

Overhead applied based on

direct labor cost 120%

Direct material was requisitioned as follows for each job respectively: 30 percent, 25 percent, and 25 percent; the
balance of the requisitions was considered indirect. Direct labor hours per job are 2,500; 3,100; and 4,200;
respectively. Indirect labor is P33,000. Other actual overhead costs totaled P36,000.

Required:

1. What is the prime cost of Job #5?


2. What is the total amount of overhead applied to Job #8?
3. What is the total amount of actual overhead?
4. How much overhead is applied to Work in Process?
5. If Job #12 is completed and transferred, what is the balance in Work in Process Inventory at the end of the
period if overhead is applied at the end of the period?
6. Assume the balance in Work in Process Inventory was P18,500 on June 1 and P25,297 on June 30. The balance
on June 30 represents one job that contains direct material of P11,250. How many direct labor hours have been
worked on this job (rounded to the nearest hour)?
Answers:

1. P57,250 [120,000 x 30% + (8.5x2500)]


2. P31,620 [3,100x8.5 x1.2]
3. P93,000 [24,000 from RM + 33,000 +36,000]
4. P99,960 [sum all DL hours x 8.5 x 1.2]
5. P170,720 [(120,000 x 55%)+(5,600x8.5)+(47,600x1.2)
6. 751 [(25,297-11,250)/2.2)/8.5)
Problem 2

Aye Co. uses a job order costing system. During April 2001, the following costs appeared in the
Work in Process Inventory account:

Beginning balance P 24,000


Direct material used 70,000
Direct labor incurred 60,000
Applied overhead 48,000
Cost of goods manufactured 185,000

Aye Co. applies overhead on the basis of direct labor cost. There was only one job left in WIP
Inventory at the end of April which contained P5,600 of overhead. What amount of direct
material was included in this job?

Answer: P4,400

Solution:

Work In Process, Beg P24,000


Manufacturing Cost:
Direct Material Used 70,000
Direct labor incurred 60,000
Applied Overhead 48,000 178,000
Goods Available for Production 202,000
Cost of Goods Manufactured (185,000)
Work in Process, End 17,000

Breakdown of the WIP End:


Balance P17,000
Overhead (5,600)
Direct Labor (7,000) [5,600/80%]
Direct Material P4,400

How to compute the predetermined OH rate:


1. Since the overhead applied is based on direct labor cost, we can use the data above 48,000/60,000.
2. 80% is the answer, which means in every direct labor cost, 80% of that amount is equal to the OH
applied.
3. Ending WIP end contains P5,600 Overhead, gross it up using 80% to get the direct labor cost.
Problem 3

Elemenopi Co. is a print shop that produces jobs to customer specifications. During January
2001, Job #1253 was worked on and the following information is available:

Direct material used P2,500


Direct labor hours worked 15
Machine time used 6
Direct labor rate per hour P7
Overhead application rate per
hour of machine time P18

What was the total cost of Job #1253 for January?

Answer: P2,713

Solution:

Direct Material Used P2,500


Direct labor cost (15x7) 105
OH Cost (18 x 6) 108
Total Cost of Job P2,713
Problem 4

The following information pertains to XYZ Co. for September 2001.

Direct Material Direct Labor Overhead


Job #123 P3,200 P4,500 ?
Job #125 ? 5,000 ?
Job #201 5,670 ? P5,550

XYZ Co. applies overhead for Job #123 at 140 percent of direct labor cost and at 150 percent of
direct labor cost for Jobs #125 and #201. The total cost of Jobs #123 and #125 is identical.

1. What amount of overhead is applied to Job #123?

Answer: P6,300

P4,500 x 140% = P6,300

2. What amount of overhead is applied to Job #125?

Answer: P7,500

P5,000 150% = 7,500

3. What is the amount of direct material for to Job #125?

Answer: P1,500

Job #123 = P3,200 + 4,500 + 6,300


= 14,000

Job #125 = 14,000


Direct Labor (5,000)
Overhead (7,500)
Direct Materials P1,500

4. Assume that Jobs #123 and #201 are incomplete at the end of September. What is the
balance in Work in Process Inventory at that time?
Answer: P28,920

Job #123 = 14,000


Job #201 = P5,670 +5,550 + (5,550/150%) 14,920
P28,920
Problem 5

HAYNAKU Company manufactures custom-built conveyor systems for factory and commercial
operations. Cardo Dalisay is the cost accountant for HAYNAKU and he is in the process
of educating a new employee, Popoy Bash, about the job order costing system that
HAYNAKU uses. (The system is based on normal costs; overhead is applied based on
direct labor cost and rounded to the next whole dollar.) Cardo gathers the following job
order cost records for May:

Direct Direct Total

Job No. Materials Labor Applied OH Cost


667 P 5,901 P1,730 P 1,990 P 9,621

669 18,312 1,810 2,082 22,204

670 406 500 575 1,481

671 51,405 9,500 10,925 71,830

672 9,615 550 633 10,798

To explain the missing job number, Cardo informed Popoy that Job #668 had
been completed in April. He also told him that Job #667 was the only job in process at
the beginning of May. At that time, the job had been assigned P4,300 for direct
material and P900 for direct labor. At the end of May, Job #671 had not been
completed; all others had. Cardo asked Popoy several questions to determine whether
he understood the job order system.

Required: Help Popoy answer the following questions:


a. What is the predetermined overhead rate used by HAYNAKU Company?
b. What was the total cost of beginning Work in Process inventory?
c. What was total prime cost incurred for the month of May?
d. What was cost of goods manufactured for May?
ANSWER:

a. Use any job started in May:

Rate = MOH JOB P670 P575 = 115%/DL Cost

DL COST P500

b. DM P4,300

DL 900

FOH 1,035 (P900 × 115%)

P6,235

c. Prime Cost =DM + DL

DM = P85,639 – 4,300 = P81,339

DL = 14,090 – 900 = 13,190

P94,529

d. COGM = P9,621 + 22,204 + 1,481 + 10,798 = P44,104
