b. Rent for the factory per month $500.00

c. Depreciation of factory equipment per month $600.00

10-Dec The following employee costs were incurred but not paid during the month:

There are three assembly employees that spend 2 hours each, $20 per hour to make the table for Job #1. (After you journalize this entry please enter the information into Job #1 Cost Sheet)

31-Dec Direct labor cost incurred but not paid for three employees to start manufacturing Job #2. The employees only worked one hour each, three hours total, $20 per hour during the month and they did not complete their work on the job. (After you journalize this entry please enter the information into Job #2 Cost Sheet)

31-Dec Manufacturing overhead cost was applied based on direct labor hours to Job #2 based on the POHR. Only three direct labor hours were worked on Job #2 during the month. (After you journalize this entry please enter the information into Job #2 Cost Sheet)

Which of the following is true of the EOQ model? Note that the optimal order quantity, Q*, will be called EOQ.

If the annual sales, in units, increases by 10%, then EOQ will increase by 10%.

If the average inventory increases by 10%, then the total carrying costs will increase by 10%.

If the average inventory increases by 10% the total ordering costs will increase by 10%.

At any order quantity below the EOQ, then total carrying costs increase, but ordering costs decrease.

If the fixed per order cost increases by 10%, then EOQ will increase by 10%.
