Custom Metal Works produces castings and other metal parts to customer specifications. The company uses a job-order costing system and applies overhead costs to jobs on the basis of machine- hours. At the beginning of the year, the company used a cost formula to estimate that it would incur S4,320,000 in manufacturing overhead cost at an activity level of 576,000 machine-hours. The company had no work in process at the beginning of the year. The company spent the entire month of January working on one large order—Job 382, which was an order for 8,000 machined parts. Cost data for January follow: a. Raw materials purchased on account, $312,000.
b. Raw materials used in production, $254,000 (80% direct materials and 20% indirect materials).
c. Labor cost accrued in the factory, $171,000 (one-third direct labor and two-thirds indirect labor).
d. Depreciation recorded on factory equipment, $64,000.
e. Other manufacturing overhead costs incurred on account, $84,200.
f. Manufacturing overhead cost was applied to production on the basis of 40,670 machine-hours actually worked during the month.
g. The completed job for 12,400 custom-made machined parts was moved into the finished goods warehouse on January 31 to await delivery to the customer. (In computing the dollar amount for this entry, remember that the cost of a completed job consists of direct materials, direct labor, and applied overhead.)

Required:

3. Journal Entry for item (g):

Debit Finished Good $565,225

Credit Work in Process $565,225

To record the transfer to the finished goods inventory.

4. Computation of the unit product cost for Job 382:

Total cost of production = $565,225

Total machined parts worked = 8,000

Unit cost = $70.65

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Estimated Manufacturing Overhead Cost = $4,320,000

Estimated Machine-Hours = 576,000

Job 383 Parts Worked = 8,000 machined parts

Predetermined overhead rate = $4,320,000/576,000 = $7.50

Applied manufacturing overhead = $7.50 * 40,670 = $305,025
