Expert Solution

Ans to Q-1 Journal Entry for payroll Calculation of manufacturing labour
Account Debit Credit We Know,
Manufacturing Labour        4,000.00 Direct Material+Direct Labour+ Direct Overhead+ Opening Work In Process- Closing Work in Process= Cost of goods manufactures
Indirect Manufacturing Labour        1,100.00 IF we take Direct Labour= 100X
Labour Payable                            5,100.00 Direct Overhead will be 150X 150% of Direct Labour
So, 59,300+100X+150X+6,100-8,400= 228,000
T Accounts or, 250X = 228,000+8,400-6100-59300
Material Control Note 250X = 171000
Debit Credit Ans to 2 a X = 171000/250
Balance as on 12/1        1,500.00 Work-in-process control      59,300.00 Balancing figure Materials requisitioned into work in process during December is $ 59,300. X = 684
Material Purchased      65,700.00 Balance as on 12/30        7,900.00 Direct Labour=100X = 684*100
Total     67,200.00 Total     67,200.00 =     68,400.00
Direct Labour as on 12/30      68,400.00 Direct Overhead as on 12/30 102,600.00 150% of Direct Labour
Work-in-process control Costs for Dec-31        4,000.00 Direct Overhead       6,000.00 150% of Direct Labour
Balance as on 12/1        6,100.00 Finished Goods Control 228,000.00 Ans to 2 b Direct Labour as on 12/31     72,400.00
Material Control      59,300.00 Balance as on 12/30        8,400.00 Ans to 2 c Direct Overhead as on 12/31 108,600.00 150% of Direct Labour
Manufacturing Labour      68,400.00
Manufacturing Overhead Control 102,600.00
Total 236,400.00 Total 236,400.00
Balance as on 12/30        8,400.00 Ans to 2 d
Manufacturing Labour        4,000.00 Ending balance in work in​ process, December 31 is $ 18,400.
Manufacturing Overhead Control        6,000.00 Balance as on 12/31      18,400.00 Balancing figure
Total     18,400.00 Total     18,400.00
Finished Goods Control Ans to 2 e
Balance as on 12/1        3,800.00 Cost of Goods sold 223,400.00 Balancing figure Cost of Goods sold before adjustment of over/under allocation of manufacturing overheads.
Work-in-process control 228,000.00 Balance as on 12/30        8,400.00
Total 231,800.00 Total 231,800.00
Manufacturing Overhead Control
Balance as on 12/30      97,500.00 Work-in-process control 102,600.00
Cost of Goods sold        5,100.00 Balancing figure
Total 102,600.00 Total 102,600.00

Note: After calculating the value of manufacturing labour and manufacturing overhead, work in process control account is matching. This is the proof the solution is correct. journal entry for Q-3 is in image due to character limit.
