2. Review: Manufacturing Cost Flows Raw Material Purchases Direct Labor Balance Sheet Costs Inventories Income Statement Expenses Manufacturing Overhead Goods Sold How to show product cost flows using T-accounts?

3. Chapter 3: Job order costing  How accounting system reports costs ? Absorption Costing is the most common approach to product costing. It is required for both external financial reporting and tax reporting in this country.  Recall: in absorption costing, all manufacturing costs are assigned to the product or service (fully absorbed), regardless of whether they are fixed or variable.  Two commonly used absorption costing systems: Job-order costing Process costing

4. Job-order costing vs. Process costing Process Costing Job-order Costing   A firm mass-produces many units of a single product.  Continuous flow of virtually identical units over a long period.  Costs may not be directly traceable to each unit. Instead, costs are accumulated by department to get the same average cost for each unit.  Examples: Coca-Cola, Exxon, General Mills, Kellogg

5. Job-order costing vs. Process costing Process Costing Job-order Costing   A firm produces many different products each period.  Products are built to order rather than mass produced.  The unique nature of each order requires tracing and allocating costs to each job and maintain cost records for each job. Examples: Boeing, Walter Disney, Levi Strauss, Hallmark construction firms, hospitals, law firms, advertising agencies, accounting firms, repair shops

6. Job-order costing vs. Process costing

7. Quick Check For each of the following companies, determine whether they are more likely to use job-order costing or process costing? 1. Scott Paper Company for Kleenex. 2. Architects. 3. Heinz for ketchup. 4. Caterer for a wedding reception.

8. Product Cost Flow in Job-order Costing Finished Goods Cost of Goods Sold Direct Labor Applied MOH Costs are traced and applied to individual jobs in a job-order cost system. Direct Materials Work-in-Process (JOB)

9. THE JOB Direct materials Direct labor Traced directly to each job Manufacturing Overhead Job-order costing: cost allocation Applied to each job using a predetermined overhead rate

10. Estimated total MOH cost for the coming period Estimated total units in the allocation base for the coming period POHR = The predetermined overhead rate (POHR) used to apply overhead to jobs is determined at the beginning of the period. Predetermined Overhead Rate The allocation base is typically a cost driver that causes MOH, e.g. DL hours, or machine hours.

11. Using a predetermined rate makes it possible to estimate total job costs sooner. Actual manufacturing overhead costs for the period is not known until the end of the period. The Need for a POHR $

12. Actual Activity: Actual amount of the allocation base, such as direct labor hours (DLH) or machine hours (MH) incurred during the period Overhead Applied POHR * Actual Activity = Applying Manufacturing Overhead

13. For each direct labor hour worked on a particular job, $4.00 of MOH will be applied to that job. Example: POHR POHR = $4.00 per DL hour $640,000 160,000 POHR = Estimated total MOH for the coming period = $640,000 Estimated total DL hours for the coming period = 160,000

14. Example: applying MOH

15. Job-Order Cost Accounting

16. Interpreting the Average Unit Product Cost The average product unit cost should not be interpreted as the costs that would actually be incurred if an additional unit were produced. Fixed overhead would not change if another unit were produced, so the incremental cost of another unit may be less than $118. ( Recall: Fixed cost per unit is decreasing as activity level increases )

17. Example Job WR53 at NW Fab, Inc. required $200 of direct materials and 10 direct labor hours at $15 per hour. POHR is determined annually on the basis of direct labor hours. Estimated total overhead for the year was $760,000 and estimated direct labor hours were 20,000. Q: What would be recorded as the cost of job WR53?

18. Manufacturing Overhead Work in Process Indirect Material Direct Material Applied Overhead If actual and applied MOH are not equal, a year-end adjustment is required. Financial statements need to be properly stated at year end. Indirect Labor Direct Labor Applied Overhead Other MOH ActualApplied Job-Order Costing: T-accounts Cost of Goods Manufactured Beg. Bal.

19. DFW Products computes its POHR annually on the basis of machine hours. At the beginning of the year, it estimated that its total MOH costs would be $600,000 and the total machine hours would be 30,000 hours. Its actual total MOH costs for the year was $470,000 and its actual total machine hours was 25,000 hours. 1)What is DFW Products’ POHR for the year? 2)Determine the amount of MOH applied to jobs during the year. 3)What are the journal entries needed to apply MOH to jobs? 4)Is MOH for the year overapplied or underapplied? By how much? 5)What if the actual total MOH is $530,000? Example: Job-order costing

20. Adjustment Method: Close to Cost of Goods Sold MOH Actual Cost of Goods Sold Unadjusted Balance Adjusted Balance Applied Q: what journal entry will lead to a zero ending balance for MOH T-account?

21. Summary: MOH Application in job-order costing POHR = Estimated total MOH cost / Estimated total activity level Applied MOH = POHR * Actual activity level Actual MOH - Applied MOH At the beginning of the period, calculate: During the period, calculate: At the end of the period, calculate: to determine whether MOH was underapplied or overapplied and do an adjustment entry to close to Cost of Goods Sold.

22. Practice Problem Janna Company applies MOH using a predetermined overhead rate of 60% of direct labor cost. During the year, 4,000 DL hours were incurred at $12 per hour. A year-end calculation of actual MOH costs show the following: Indirect material costs $1,000, indirect labor costs $16,000 and other MOH costs (including factory property tax, utilities and depreciation) amount to $12,000. Questions: (1) Is MOH overapplied or underapplied? (2) What are the journal entries to close the difference to CGS? (3) If CGM is $100,000, the beginning FG inventory is $30,000 and the ending FG inventory is $25,000, what is the CGS after the year- end adjustment entry? (4) What if actual total MOH is $28,000?

23. For Next Class  Review chapter 3, we will do more practice problems.  Attempt the assigned HW problems.  Read chapter 5, we will proceed to cover the basic concepts of cost behavior.

24. Janna Company incurred $400, 000 actual MOH, and overapplied $20,000 on MOH account for the year. If POHR is $10 per direct labor hour, how many hours did the company work during the year? Homework Problem 1

25. Harwood Co. uses job-order costing and applies MOH to jobs based on machine hours. On January 1, 2009, managers estimated that the company will incur $420,000 in MOH costs and work 60,000 machine hours. Managers have the following data on 12/31/2009: Homework Problem 2 Actual direct-labor hours 50,000 Actual machine hours 70,000 Direct labor cost $80,000 Indirect materials $20,000 Other MOH$400,000 Indirect labor cost$100,000 Q: (1) Is MOH under- or overapplied for the year? By how much? (2) What are the journal entries to close to CGS at the year-end?
