Exam 2 Flashcards
Job order production
producing products or providing services customized for specific customers
Job
the production of activities for a customized product
Job Lot
producing more than 1 unit of a unique product
Process operations
Mass production of large quantities of similar products in continuous flow of steps
Job cost sheet
separate record maintained for each job used to record costs
Receiving report
source document used to record quantity and cost of items received
Materials ledger cards
perpetual records that are updated each time materials are purchased and each time materials are issued for use in production
Materials requistion
document identifying the type and quantity of materials needed in production
Job cost sheet
-accumulates the cost of DM as they are placed into production of a job
-accumulates the cost of DL as these costs are incurred
Time tickets
used by employees to see how much time employees spend on each job.
-determine total labor cost for pay period
-DL costs = Debit to WIP and Credit to Factory wages payable
Overhead costs
Indirect materials, labor and other overhead that cannot be cost effectively traced
steps to determine overhead:
1) set predetermined OH rate
2) apply estimated overhead to jobs
3) record actual OH
Predetermined OH rate formula:
Estimated OH cost / Estimated activity base
Applied OH formula:
Predetermined OH rate x Actual activity base used
What is the journal entry for applying overhead?
Debit: WIP inventory
Credit: Factory OH
What goes into recording actual OH?
1) Record ID materials used
2) Record ID labor used
3) Record other OH costs
Closing Underapplied OH:
Actual OH > Applied OH
-remaining debit balance is underapplied OH
-Factory OH credited to close
-COGS is debited
Closing Overapplied OH:
Actual OH < Applied OH
-remained credit balance in Factory OH is overapplied OH
-FOH debited to close
-COGS is credited
Procedure to determine Job order costing for service providers:
1) Determine DL costs
2) Determine the OH based on predetermined rate
3) Combine labor and overhead to obtain cost of job
4) Gross profit ratio
Gross Profit Ratio Formula:
(Service Revenue - Cost of Services) / Service Revenue
Do you want Gross Profit Ratio to be high or low?
Higher GPR means a company is more able to submit a lower price quote
Plantwide OH rate method:
-One OH rate to allocate OH costs
-Rate is determined using a volume related measure like DL and machine hours
Plantwide OH rate formula:
Total budgeted OH cost / allocation base
Plante wide- OH allocated formula:
Plantwide OHR x Allocation Base Used
Departmental OH rate:
-used multiple overhead rates
-uses a different OH rate for each department
