  Debit Credit
Cash $ 70,000  
Accounts receivable 39,000  
Raw materials inventory 24,500  
Work in process inventory 0  
Finished goods inventory 15,000

Retained earnings (prior year)   94,000
Sales   158,900
Cost of goods sold 112,000  
Factory overhead 28,000  
General and administrative expenses 36,000  
Totals $ 329,500 $ 329,500

 
These six documents must be processed to bring the accounting records up to date.
 

Materials requisition 10: $ 4,400 direct materials to Job 402
Materials requisition 11: $ 7,800 direct materials to Job 404
Materials requisition 12: $ 2,400 indirect materials
Labor time ticket 52: $ 7,000 direct labor to Job 402
Labor time ticket 53: $ 13,000 direct labor to Job 404
Labor time ticket 54: $ 5,000 indirect labor

 
Jobs 402 and 404 are the only jobs in process at year-end. The predetermined overhead rate is 150% of direct labor cost.

 

2-a. In Factory Overhead T-account, enter amounts from part 1 related to factory overhead. Determine the amount of over- or underapplied overhead.
2-b. Prepare the entry to close any over- or underapplied overhead to Cost of Goods Sold.

### Factory Overhead T-Account Analysis

**Instruction:**  
In the Factory Overhead T-account, enter amounts from part 1 related to factory overhead. Determine the amount of over- or underapplied overhead.

**Table: Factory Overhead**

| Description               | Amount ($)  | Overhead Applied ($) |
|---------------------------|-------------|----------------------|
| Actual overhead (given)   | 28,000      |                      |
| Indirect materials        | 2,400       |                      |
| Indirect labor            | 5,000       |                      |
|                           | 0           | 0                    |
| Underapplied overhead     |             |                      |

**Explanation of the Table:**

- **Actual Overhead (given):** This is the total actual cost incurred for factory overhead, which is $28,000.
- **Indirect Materials:** This cost totals $2,400, representing materials used in production that are not directly traceable to a specific product.
- **Indirect Labor:** This cost totals $5,000, representing the labor costs not directly tied to specific units of production.
- **Underapplied Overhead:** This row is intended for calculating the difference if the total applied overhead is less than the actual overhead. The current entries suggest there's no calculated amount for over- or underapplied overhead yet.

**Note:** Highlighted sections indicate areas needing additional data or verification regarding overhead applied and whether there is an underapplied overhead situation.
