Job 766 | $8,900 | $4,775 | 44 |
Job 765 produced 152 units, and Job 766 consisted of 250 units.
Assuming that the predetermined overhead rate is applied by using machine hours at a rate of $200 per hour, determine the (a) balance on the job cost sheets for each job, and (b) the cost per unit at the end of April.
a) Balance of Job cost sheet
Job 765 | Job 766 | |
Direct material | 5670 | 8900 |
Direct labor | 3500 | 4775 |
Overhead | 27*200 = 5400 | 44*200 = 8800 |
Total Job cost | 14570 | 22475 |
b) Cost per unit
Job 765 = 14570/152 = 95.86
Job 766 = 22475/250 = 89.90
