Answer 1

1)Predetermined overhead rate =APplied overhead of any job /Direct labor cost

           = 1246 /1780

              = .70 or 70% of direct labor cost

2)

Job 114 :Beginning cost +cost incurred during the month

      =[2406+1780+1246]+[16940+(170*12=2040)+(2040*.70)]

      = 5432 +20408

        = 25840

Job 115 : [2660+1540+1078]+[12060+(240*15=3600)+(3600*.70)]

       = 5278+ 18180

        = 23458

Job 116: [3320+4200+2940]+[5150+(70*19=1330)+(1330*.70)]

       = 17871

3)Ending balance of WIP = Job 114 +job 116

     = 25840+17871

   = 43711

4)cost of goods sold= Job 115= 23458

5)Price =cost (1+mark up%)

         23458 (1+.25)

              = 29323 (rounded)
