Finding Missing Data
A new computer virus (AcctBGone) destroyed most of the company records at BackupsRntUs. The computer experts at the company could recover only a few fragments of the company’s factory ledger for March as follows:
Further investigation and reconstruction from other sources yielded the following additional information:
- The controller remembers clearly that actual
manufacturing overhead costs are recorded at $18 per direct labor-hour. (The company assigns actual overhead to Work-in-Process Inventory.) - The production superintendent’s cost sheets showed only one job in Work-in-Process Inventory on March 31. Materials of $15,600 had been added to the job, and 300 direct labor-hours had been expended at $36 per hour.
- The Accounts Payable are for direct materials purchases only, according to the accounts payable clerk. He clearly remembers that the balance in the account was $36,000 on March 1. An analysis of canceled checks (kept in the treasurer’s office) shows that payments of $252,000 were made to suppliers during the month.
- The payroll ledger shows that 5,200 direct labor-hours were recorded for the month. The employment department has verified that there are no variations in pay rates among employees (this infuriated Steve Fung, who believed that his services were underpaid).
- Records maintained in the finished goods warehouse indicate that the finished goods inventory totaled $108,000 on March 1.
- The cost of goods manufactured in March was $564,000.
Required
Determine the following amounts:
- a. Work-in-process inventory, March 31.
- b. Direct materials purchased during March.
- c. Actual manufacturing overhead incurred during March.
- d. Cost of goods sold for March.

Its internal controls were reviewed, and the plant appeared to be strong; segregation of duties was in place. As the accountant was reconciling some inventory accounts, she found more than a normal amount of scrap tickets. The tickets were for scrapping the same inventory part, signed by the same person, and the scrap was sold to only one company. The inventory item was still being ordered, and only one supplier was used to purchase the parts. After further investigation by the accountant, the company buying the inventory and the company selling the inventory to the company had different names but shared the same address. Comment on what went wrong. What happened to the internal controls the company had in place?arrow_forward
