©2003 Prentice Hall Business Publishing, Cost Accounting 11/e, Horngren/Datar/Foster Seven-Step Approach to Job Costing Step 1: Identify the chosen cost object. Step 2: Identify the direct costs of the job. Step 3: Select the cost-allocation bases. Step 4: Identify the indirect costs.

©2003 Prentice Hall Business Publishing, Cost Accounting 11/e, Horngren/Datar/Foster Seven-Step Approach to Job Costing Step 5: Compute the rate per unit. Step 6: Compute the indirect costs. Step 7: Compute the total cost of the job.

Step 1: The cost object is Job 650. Step 2: Direct costs are: Direct materials = $50,000 Direct manufacturing labor = $19,000

©2003 Prentice Hall Business Publishing, Cost Accounting 11/e, Horngren/Datar/Foster General Approach to Job Costing Step 3: The cost allocation base is machine-hours. Job 650 used 500 machine-hours. 2,480 machine-hours were used by all jobs. Step 4: Manufacturing overhead costs were $65,100.

©2003 Prentice Hall Business Publishing, Cost Accounting 11/e, Horngren/Datar/Foster General Approach to Job Costing Step 5: Actual indirect cost rate is $65,100 ÷ 2,480 = $26.25 per machine-hour. Step 6: $26.25 per machine-hour × 500 hours = $13,125

©2003 Prentice Hall Business Publishing, Cost Accounting 11/e, Horngren/Datar/Foster Costing Systems Actual costing is a system that uses actual costs to determine the cost of individual jobs. It allocates indirect costs based on the actual indirect-cost rate(s) times the actual quantity of the cost-allocation base(s).

©2003 Prentice Hall Business Publishing, Cost Accounting 11/e, Horngren/Datar/Foster Costing Systems Normal costing is a method that allocates indirect costs based on the budgeted indirect-cost rate(s) times the actual quantity of the cost allocation base(s).

©2003 Prentice Hall Business Publishing, Cost Accounting 11/e, Horngren/Datar/Foster Normal Costing Assume that the manufacturing company budgets $60,000 for total manufacturing overhead costs and 2,400 machine-hours. What is the budgeted indirect-cost rate? $60,000 ÷ 2,400 = $25 per hour How much indirect cost was allocated to Job 650? 500 machine-hours × $25 = $12,500

©2003 Prentice Hall Business Publishing, Cost Accounting 11/e, Horngren/Datar/Foster Normal Costing What is the cost of Job 650 under normal costing? Direct materials$50,000 Direct labor 19,000 Factory overhead 12,500 Total$81,500
