1. Auto manufacturing: A job-order example might be Rolls Royce, in which the

cars are made to order. A process-costing example might be Ford Motor
Company.
2. Dental services: A job-order example might be a local, full-service dentist. A
process-costing example might be a denturist (someone who makes only
dentures).
3. Auto repair: A job-order example might be a local mechanic or the service
department of an automobile dealership. A process-costing example might be
a shop that is dedicated to oil changes.
4. Costume making: A job-order example might be a local seamstress who will
make the costumes for children in a junior high school play. A process-

1. Overhead rate = $270/$900 = 0.30 or 30% of direct labor dollars.

(This rate was calculated using information from the Fazel job; however, the
Myron and Patton jobs would give the same answer.)
2. Fazel Myron Patton Raider Willis

Beginning WIP $ 1,730 $1,180 $2,500 $ 0 $ 0
Direct materials 600 350 260 780 725
Direct labor 1,200 980 650 1,350 900
Applied overhead 360 294 195 405 270
Total $ 3,890 $2,804 $3,605 $ 2,535 $ 1,895
Note: This is just one way of setting up the job-order cost sheets. You might
prefer to keep the detail on the materials, labor, and overhead in beginning
inventory costs.
3. Since the Fazel and Myron jobs were completed, the others must still be in
process. Therefore, the ending balance in Work in Process is the sum of the
costs of the Patton, Raider, and Willis jobs.
Patton $3,605
Raider 2,535
Willis 1,895
Ending Work in Process $8,035
Cost of Goods Sold = Fazel job + Myron job = $3,890 + $2,804 = $6,694

3. The activity-based approach to assigning overhead gives a more accurate

cost figure because so much of the overhead is non unit-level and there is
product diversity.

MANAGERIAL DECISION CASES
6–39
1. Gary’s proposal requires Donna to falsify the equivalent unit calculation so

that income and assets can be inflated and reported incorrectly. Falsification
of the production report would be a violation of at least two major ethical
standards: integrity and objectivity. Falsification does not allow the organiza-
tion to attain its legitimate and ethical objectives. Moreover, if Donna agrees
to the proposal, she would be taking action that would discredit her profes-
sion. Finally, Donna has an ethical obligation to communicate information
fairly and objectively, disclosing all information that would be needed for the
loan officer to fairly assess the merits of the company’s request for a loan.
Clearly, Donna should not agree to falsify the production report.
2. Donna has an obligation to report Gary to a superior only if an actual ethical

problem exists. If Gary decides that the course of action he is suggesting is
not really in his or the company’s best interests, then no ethical problem ex-
ists, and no action by Donna is needed.
3. If Gary insists on his idea of falsification of the division’s reports, Donna

should attempt to resolve the conflict by appealing to Gary’s immediate su-
pervisor (and on up, if necessary, until a satisfactory resolution is achieved).
If no satisfactory resolution is possible, then Donna should resign and sub-
mit an informative memo to a representative of the organization.
4. In this situation, the ethical dilemma is complicated by two factors: Donna’s

age and a low likelihood of resolution by appealing to higher-level authorities.
Donna’s age may make it more difficult to find alternative employment (at
least at the same level and pay), and it may mean possible forfeiture of re-
tirement benefits. Many students will likely respond that Donna should still
resign (assuming that resolution is not likely), recommending the ideal out-
come. While Donna’s ultimate resignation is the right choice if resolution
fails, students should realize that ethical behavior may often carry with it
some very significant personal sacrifices. It could be argued, however, that
the costs of unethical behavior are even greater.
Another possibility is to encourage Donna to see a lawyer. She has the option
of fighting back, and at her age (with retirement benefits at stake), a good of-
fense may be her best defense.

JOB ORDER AND PROCESS COSTING

1. Auto manufacturing: A job-order example might be Rolls Royce, in which the

1. Job #614 Job #615 Job #616 Job #617

3. Cost of Goods Sold = Job #615 = $25,570

1. Overhead applied in October:

2. Job #265 Job #266 Job #267 Job #268

4. Cost of Goods Sold = Job #265 = $69,580

1. Direct materials $ 3,400

2. Price per home = 1.5 × $410 = $615

1. Job #70 Job #71 Job #72

2. Ending balance in Work in Process = Job #72 = $56,150

3. Ending balance in Finished Goods = Job #71 = $18,650

4. Cost of Goods Sold = Job #70 = $60,050

1. Applied overhead = Direct labor cost × Overhead rate

2. $140,000 Applied overhead

3. Direct materials $ 40,000

4. Overhead Control ...................................... 1,500

5. Direct materials ($32,000 – $10,000 – $17,500) $ 4,500

1. Overhead rate = $180,000/20,000 = $9 per DLH

2. Direct materials $ 4,140

3. Overhead Control ...................................... 189,300

4. Actual overhead $189,300

5. Normal cost of goods sold $740,000

1. Cutting Sewing Packaging

2. a. Transferred from Cutting to Sewing $6,300

1. Equivalent unit, Ending work in process = 300 × 0.20 = 60

2. Equivalent units in Total = 60 + 600 = 660

1. Physical flow schedule:

2. Equivalent units of production:

1. Cost of ending work in process:

2. Physical flow schedule:

1. Physical flow schedule:

2. Units completed 240,000

3. Unit cost = ($1,171,800 + $390,600)/248,000 = $6.30

4. Cost transferred out = 240,000 × $6.30 = $1,512,000

5. Costs to account for:

Costs accounted for:

Costs accounted for:

1. Physical flow schedule:

3. Unit materials cost ($49,000 + $351,000)/80,000 = $5.00

4. Cost transferred out: 60,000 × $6.13 = $367,800

5. Costs to account for:

Bath Linens Department

Costs accounted for:

1. Physical flow schedule:

2. Units started and completed 280,000

Add: Units to complete beginning WIP (120,000 × 25%) 30,000

3. FIFO unit cost = $1,516,500/337,000 = $4.50

4. Costs transferred out:

5. Costs to account for: Costs accounted for:

Units accounted for: Physical Flow Equivalent Units

Costs accounted for:

2. Ending Work in Process = Cost of Job #65

3. Finished Goods ......................................... 12,310

*(160% × $12,310 = $19,696)

1. Overhead rate = $270/$900 = 0.30 or 30% of direct labor dollars.

2. Fazel Myron Patton Raider Willis

1. Overhead rate = $90,000/10,000 = $9 per MHr

2. Purchasing rate = $30,000/5,000 = $6 per purchase order

3. The activity-based approach to assigning overhead gives a more accurate

1. a. Materials ............................................... 44,200

3. f. Finished Goods ................................... 45,000
