Manufacturing Schedule Cost

Beginning Inventory (Job 205) $11,800

Direct materials $26,000

Direct labor costs $21,000

Applied Overheads ($21,000 x 160%) $33,600

Less Ending Inventory (Job 104) ($6,900)

Cost of Goods Manufactured $85,500

Journal entries to record the current month activity.

Debit : Work In Process $80,600

Credit : Direct materials $26,000

Credit : Direct labor costs $21,000

Credit : Applied Overheads ($21,000 x 160%) $33,600

Calculation of amount of over allocated or under allocated manufacturing overhead

Actual Manufacturing Overheads = $32,000

Applied Manufacturing Overheads = $33,600

Therefore, Overheads Over-applied = $1,600
