Expand Your Critical Thinking 15-02 a1-a4 In the course of routine checking of all journal entries prior to preparing year-end reports, Betty Eller discovered several strange entries. She recalled that the president’s son Joe had come in to help out during an especially busy time and that he had recorded some journal entries. She was relieved that there were only a few of his entries, and even more relieved that he had included rather lengthy explanations. The entries Joe made were: (1) Work in Process Inventory 20,000 Cash 20,000 (This is for materials put into process. I don’t find the record that we paid for these, so I’m crediting Cash because I know we’ll have to pay for them sooner or later.) (2) Manufacturing Overhead 8,500 Cash 8,500 (This is for bonuses paid to salespeople. I know they’re part of overhead, and I can’t find an account called "Non-Factory Overhead" or "Other Overhead" so I’m putting it in Manufacturing Overhead. I have the check stubs, so I know we paid these.) (3) Wages Expense 108,000 Cash 108,000 (This is for the factory workers’ wages. I have a note that employer payroll taxes are $16,200. I still think that’s part of wages expense and that we’ll have to pay it all in cash sooner or later, so I credited Cash for the wages and the taxes.)
