Job-Order Costing Chapter Three

3 -2 Types of Product Costing Systems Process Costing Job-order Costing v v A company produces many units of a single product. v The identical nature of each unit of product enables assigning the same average cost per unit. One unit of product is indistinguishable from other units of product.

3 -3 Types of Product Costing Systems Process Costing Job-order Costing v Many different products, each with individual and unique features, are produced each period. v v Products are manufactured to order. The unique nature of each order requires tracing or allocating costs to each job, and maintaining cost records for each job.

3 -6 Direct Manufacturing Costs Direct Materials Job No. 1 Direct Labor Manufacturing Overhead Job No. 2 Job No. 3 Manufacturing Overhead, including indirect materials and indirect labor, are allocated to all jobs rather than directly traced to each job.

3 -12 Why Use an Allocation Base? Manufacturing overhead is applied to jobs that are in process. An allocation base is a measure, such as direct labor hours, direct labor dollars, or machine hours, is used to assign manufacturing overhead to individual jobs. We use an allocation base because: 1. MOH is an indirect cost. It is impossible or difficult to trace overhead costs to particular jobs. 2. Manufacturing overhead consists of many different items ranging from the grease used in machines to production manager’s salary. Some of them are variable Overhead costs and some are fixed overhead costs. 3. Many types of manufacturing overhead costs are fixed even though output fluctuates during the period.

3 -13 Manufacturing Overhead Application The predetermined overhead rate (POHR) used to apply overhead to jobs is determined before the period begins. POHR = Estimated total manufacturing overhead cost for the coming period Estimated total units in the allocation base for the coming period Ideally, the allocation base is a cost driver that causes overhead.

3 -14 Application of Manufacturing Overhead Based on estimates, and determined before the period begins. Overhead applied = POHR Actual amount of the allocation based upon the actual level of activity. × Actual activity

3 -15 Overhead Application Rate POHR = Estimated total manufacturing overhead cost for the coming period Estimated total units in the allocation base for the coming period $640, 000 160, 000 direct labor hours (DLH) POHR = $4. 00 per DLH For each direct labor hour worked on a particular job, $4. 00 of factory overhead will be applied to that job.

3 -18 Interpreting the Average Unit Cost The average unit cost should not be interpreted as the costs that would actually be incurred if an additional unit were produced. Fixed overhead would not change if another unit were produced, so the incremental cost of another unit may be somewhat less than $118.

3 -19 The Need for a POHR Using a predetermined rate makes it possible to estimate total job costs sooner. $ Actual overhead for the period is not known until the end of the period.

3 -20 Quick Check Job WR 53 at NW Fab, Inc. required $200 of direct materials and 10 direct labor hours at $15 per hour. Estimated total overhead for the year was $760, 000 and estimated direct labor hours were 20, 000. What would be recorded as the cost of job WR 53? a. $200. b. $350. c. $380. d. $730.

3 -26 Job-Order Costing: The Flow of Costs The transactions (in Taccount and journal entry form) that capture the flow of costs in a job -order costing system are illustrated on the following slides.

3 -28 Cost Flows – Material Purchases Raw material purchases are recorded in an inventory account.

3 -29 Cost Flows – Material Usage Direct materials issued to a job increase Work in Process and decrease Raw Materials. Indirect materials used are charged to Manufacturing Overhead and also decrease Raw Materials.

3 -35 Applying Manufacturing Overhead Work in Process is increased when Manufacturing Overhead is applied to jobs.

3 -36 Accounting for Nonmanufacturing Cost Nonmanufacturing costs are not assigned to individual jobs; rather they are expensed in the period incurred. Examples: 1. 2. Salary expense of employees who work in a marketing, selling, or administrative capacity. Advertising expenses are expensed in the period incurred.

3 -42 Schedule of Cost of Goods Manufactured Calculates the cost of raw material, direct labor and manufacturing overhead used in production. Calculates the manufacturing costs associated with goods that were finished during the period.

3 -43 Product Cost Flows As items are removed from raw materials inventory and placed into the production process, they are called direct materials.

3 -44 Product Cost Flows Conversion costs are costs incurred to convert the direct material into a finished product.

3 -45 Product Cost Flows All manufacturing costs incurred during the period are added to the beginning balance of work in process.

3 -57 Problems of Overhead Application The difference between the overhead cost applied to Work in Process and the actual overhead costs of a period is referred to as either underapplied or overapplied overhead. Underapplied overhead exists when the amount of overhead applied to jobs during the period using the predetermined overhead rate is less than the total amount of overhead actually incurred during the period. Overapplied overhead exists when the amount of overhead applied to jobs during the period using the predetermined overhead rate is greater than the total amount of overhead actually incurred during the period.

3 -58 Overhead Application Example Pear. Co’s actual overhead for the year was $650, 000 with a total of 170, 000 direct labor hours worked on jobs. How much total overhead was applied to Pear. Co’s jobs during the year? Use Pear. Co’s predetermined overhead rate of $4. 00 per direct labor hour. Overhead Applied During the Period Applied Overhead = POHR × Actual Direct Labor Hours Applied Overhead = $4. 00 per DLH × 170, 000 DLH = $680, 000

3 -59 Overhead Application Example Pear. Co’s actual overhead for the year was $650, 000 with a total of 170, 000 direct labor hours worked on jobs. How much total overhead was applied to Pear. Co’s jobs Pear. Co has overapplied during the Use Pear. Co’s predetermined overhead for year? the year overhead What rate ofwill $4. 00 per direct labor hour. by $30, 000. Pear. Co do? Overhead Applied During the Period Applied Overhead = POHR × Actual Direct Labor Hours Applied Overhead = $4. 00 per DLH × 170, 000 DLH = $680, 000

3 -60 Disposition of Under- or Overapplied Overhead Pear. Co’s Method $30, 000 may be allocated to these accounts. $30, 000 may be closed directly to cost of goods sold. OR Work in Process Finished Goods Cost of Goods Sold

3 -61 Quick Check Tiger, Inc. had actual manufacturing overhead costs of $1, 210, 000 and a predetermined overhead rate of $4. 00 per machine hour. Tiger, Inc. worked 290, 000 machine hours during the period. Tiger’s manufacturing overhead is a. $50, 000 overapplied. b. $50, 000 underapplied. c. $60, 000 overapplied. $60, 000 underapplied. Overhead Applied $4. 00 per hour × 290, 000 hours = $1, 160, 000 Underapplied Overhead $1, 210, 000 - $1, 160, 000 = $50, 000

3 -62 Allocating Under- or Overapplied Overhead Between Accounts Assume the overhead applied in ending Work in Process Inventory, ending Finished Goods Inventory, and Cost of Goods Sold is shown below:

3 -63 Allocating Under- or Overapplied Overhead Between Accounts We would complete the following allocation of $30, 000 overapplied overhead:

3 -66 Multiple Predetermined Overhead Rates To this point, we have assumed that there is a single predetermined overhead rate called a plantwide overhead rate. Large companies often use multiple predetermined overhead rates. May be more complex but. . . May be more accurate because it reflects differences across departments.
