Chapter 20, Problem 20.38P

Backflush, two trigger points, materials purchase and sale (continuation of 20-37). Assume the same facts for Acton Corporation as in Problem 20-37, except that now assume Acton uses a JIT production system and backflush costing with two trigger points for making entries in the accounting system:

  • Purchase of direct materials
  • Sale of finished goods

The inventory account is confined solely to direct materials, whether these materials are in a storeroom, in work in process, or in finished goods. No conversion costs are inventoried. They are allocated to the units sold at standard costs. Any under- or overallocated conversion costs are written off monthly to Cost of Goods Sold.

Acton’s August standard cost per meter is direct materials, $24, and conversion cost, $18. Acton has no direct materials variances. The following data apply to August manufacturing:
