Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:-
A. the total cost for Job M1
Labor hour used in Job M1 = Direct manufacturing labor ÷ Direct manufacturing labor per hour
= $273,000 ÷ $26
= 10,500
Manufacturing overhead costs of Job M1 = Labor hour used in Job M1 × Predetermined overhead rate
= 10,500 × $20
= $210,000
Total cost for Job M1 = Direct materials + Direct manufacturing labor + Manufacturing overhead costs
= $78,000 + $273,000 + $210,000
= $561,000
B. the cost per pipe
Cost per pipe = Total cost for Job M1 ÷ No of unit produced
= $561,000 ÷ 1,100
= $510
C. The Journal entry is shown below:-
Finished Goods Dr, $561,000
To Work in Process $561,000
(Being the transfer is recorded)
D. Ending balance in the Work-in-Process Control account
Labor hour used in Job M2 = Direct manufacturing labor ÷ Direct manufacturing labor per hour
= $208,000 ÷ $26
= 8,000
Manufacturing overhead costs of Job M2 = Labor hour used in Job M2 × Predetermined overhead rate
= 8,000 × $20
= $160,000
Ending balance in the Work-in-Process Control account = Direct materials of Job M2 + Direct manufacturing labor of Job M2 + Manufacturing overhead costs of Job M2
= $51,000 + $208,000 + $160,000
= $419,000
