Determining Manufacturing Costs

Wagner Printing Inc. began printing operations on July 1. Jobs 7-01 and 7-02 were completed during the month, and all costs applicable to them were recorded on the related cost sheets. Jobs 7-03 and 7-04 are still in process at the end of the month, and all applicable costs except factory overhead have been recorded on the related cost sheets. In addition to the materials and labor charged directly to the jobs, $1,540 of indirect materials and $5,500 of indirect labor were used during the month. The cost sheets, in summary form, for the four jobs during the month are as follows:
