CHAPTER 4: JOB COSTING QUESTIONS

4-1 The purpose of any costing system is to (1) determine product and service cost, and value inventory, (2) facilitate management planning, cost control, and performance evaluation, and (3) facilitate managerial decision making. Management can use product costs to determine the product or service pricing, to assess the financial effect of adding or deleting a product, division or subsidiary, to evaluate a make or buy decision, and to evaluate department or division product profitability performance. Job costing is a product costing system that accumulates and assigns costs to a specific job. Process costing accumulates product or service costs by process or department and then assigns them to a large number of nearly identical products. Companies that are likely to use a job costing system have a wide variety of products or services. These companies include printing shops, accounting firms, equipment companies, and construction companies. Companies that are likely to use a process costing system have homogeneous products or services. Such companies include automobile manufacturers, food processors, and textile companies. Service industry companies most likely use a job costing system because each job is likely to have different quantities of materials and labor. A job cost sheet accumulates direct materials, direct labor, and factory overhead. The determination of a predetermined overhead rate has four steps: (1) estimate the factory overhead costs for an appropriate operating period, usually a year, (2) determine the most appropriate cost driver(s) for charging the factory overhead costs, (3) estimate the total amount or activity level of the chosen cost driver(s) for the operating period, (4) divide the estimated factory overhead costs by the estimated activity level of the chosen cost driver(s) to obtain the predetermined overhead rate(s). The predetermined factory overhead rates are applied to units instead of actual overhead costs because if the actual rate is applied to overhead costs the costs per unit for products produced in different periods will vary greatly.

A material requisition is a source document that is used to request materials from the warehouse. A time ticket shows the time worked on each job, the pay rate, and the total labor cost chargeable to each job. The bill of materials is a list of different materials needed to manufacture a product or part. Since the overhead cost cannot be traced directly to a particular product, we need a good costing system, which can assign overhead accurately to specific products. Generally speaking, the more expensive or extensive a costing system is, the more information it provides and the more reliable it is. It is important to balance the cost of obtaining the appropriate cost with the information obtained. Costs originate with the purchase of materials. These costs and labor are transferred to work-in-process as work is done and eventually to finished goods. Overhead is applied to work-in-process as well. Work-in-process is forwarded to finished goods as work is completed. These costs are transferred from finished goods to cost of goods sold when the merchandise is sold. Underapplied overhead is the amount of actual factory overhead that exceeds the factory overhead applied. Overapplied overhead is the amount of factory overhead applied that exceeds the actual factory overhead cost. Underapplied or overapplied overhead can be disposed of in two ways: adjust the cost of goods sold account or adjust the production costs of the month; that is, prorate the difference among the amounts of the current periods applied overhead remaining in the ending balances of the work in process inventory, the finished goods inventory, and the cost of goods sold accounts. Due to the automation trend, the proper cost driver for a manufacturing firm would probably be machine hours because the costs are predominantly related to the equipment operation.

4-13 Overhead can be overapplied if the actual overhead is less than expected or the actual level of the cost driver exceeds the estimate. 4-14 An actual costing system uses actual costs incurred for direct materials and direct labor and assigns or applies actual factory overhead to various jobs. Normal costing uses actual costs for direct materials and direct labor and applies factory overhead to various jobs using a predetermined basis. The best choice of a cost driver is that activity or output measure that best represents what drives or causes overhead. Cost of goods sold includes actual direct materials, actual direct labor, and applied factory overhead costs for products sold. Adjusted cost of goods sold equals normal cost of goods sold plus underapplied overhead (or less overapplied overhead).

BRIEF EXERCISES 4-17 The application of job costing is very similar in manufacturing and service firms. Some differences are that service firms are likely to have a larger proportion of direct labor in jobs than are manufacturers. 4-18 4-19 $10 per machine hour x 16 hours = $160 The overhead rate for labor would be $80,000/4,000 labor hours = $20/labor hour and the machine-hour rate would be $80,000/8,000 machine hours = $10/machine hour. Since this is a machine shop, it might be appropriate to use a machine-hour based rate. Applied overhead is 59,000 units x $10/unit = $590,000. underapplied difference of $23,000 ($613,000 - $590,000). There is an
4-20
4-21 Since the difference is underapplied, it must be added to the current balance of cost of goods sold: $90,000 + $10,000 = $100,000. 4-22 Job cost is $10,000 + $20,000 + ( 2 x $20,000) = $70,000. 4-23 Because of the greater variability of machine hours among jobs, job cost will be more strongly influenced by the use of machine hours. The fact that machine hours are significantly greater than labor hours suggests that workers attend to a number of different machines, and that the overall cost of the machines is somewhat greater than that of labor. In this case, a machine-based rate would be more appropriate, as the machine costs are a significant part of total overhead, and because the different jobs consume significantly different amounts of machine time. 4-24 When overhead is overapplied, this means that too much cost as been applied to WIP, finished goods, and cost of goods sold. The cost of goods sold account will be too high before adjusting for the overhead variance. 4-25 The departmental rate will likely be more accurate since it will take into account the fact that different jobs may require different amounts of resource from each department. Product costs will be less accurate if the overhead is pooled into a single plantwide rate, which ignores these differences in use of departmental recourses by the different jobs. Chapter 5 addresses this issue in some detail. 4-26 The information on units sold and the number of labor hours is irrelevant. First, determine the amount of overhead applied: Applied overhead = $222,000 - $20,400 (underapplied) = $201,600
4-3
Second, determine the overhead rate: $210,000/50,000 units = $4.20 per unit Third, determine the number of units produced $201,600/$4.20 per unit = 48,000 units 4-27 The information on units sold and the number of labor hours is irrelevant. First, determine the amount of overhead applied: Applied overhead = $360,000 + $30,000 (overapplied) = $390,000 Second, determine the overhead rate: $350,000/700,000 units = $.50 per unit Third, determine the number of units produced $390,000/$.50 per unit = 780,000 units

4-31 Job Costing in Aircraft Manufacturing (15 min) A key difficulty in these companies is that much of the overhead cost for the job is for capacity costs that are incurred for a multiple-year period. Thus, the determination of the overhead rate must determine an amount for each year by determining in effect what portion of the total capacity costs should be attributed to each year in which the job is being completed. In simple terms, this might mean using straight-line depreciation for plant and equipment needed for the job, or an allocation across the years based on the number of aircraft to be produced in each year and the capacity utilization expected for each year. Considerations of possible future changes in the terms of the contract for the job (to increase or decrease the number of aircraft in the order, for example), should also be considered. The determination of the budgeted overhead rates in these cases requires the careful judgment of the management accountant. 4-32 Journal Entries (20 min) 1.

4-45 (continued -4) Tutorial and Illustration: Creating and Using Pivot Tablesthe following steps can be used to create a pivot table that in turn, can be used to evaluate various data sets with ease. By exploring the pivot tables within Excel you can use this feature to perform many different summations and calculations. This tutorial will only show you a simple version of a pivot table. The data for the tutorial is taken from the self study problem at the end of the chapter, the Watkins Machinery Company.
1. Enter the data for the problem into a spreadsheet, as follows:
P r h s dP o u t uc a e r d c Indirect Ma teria ls Indirect Ma teria ls Ma teria Y l Ma teria Y l Ma teria X l Ma teria X l Indirect Ma teria ls Ma teria X l Ma teria X l Ma teria X l Ma teria Y l Ma teria Y l Ma teria Y l Indirect Ma teria ls Ma teria X l Ma teria X l Ma teria Y l Ma teria Y l Ma teria X l Ma teria Y l Ma teria Y l Indirect Ma teria ls P r h s dP o u t uc a e r d c Indirect Ma teria ls Indirect Ma teria ls Ma teria Y l Ma teria Y l Ma teria X l Ma teria X l Indirect Ma teria ls Ma teria X l Ma teria X l Ma teria X l Ma teria Y l Ma teria Y l Ma teria Y l Indirect Ma teria ls Ma teria X l Ma teria X l Ma teria Y l Ma teria Y l Ma teria X l Ma teria Y l Ma teria Y l Indirect Ma teria ls D te A o n a mu t 0 /2 /0 $3 0 2 6 8 ,0 0 0 /0 /0 3 1 8 1 5 ,2 0 0 /0 /0 3 3 8 80 0 0 /0 /0 3 4 8 1 0 ,6 0 0 /0 /0 3 6 8 1 0 ,2 0 0 /0 /0 3 8 8 1 0 ,6 0 0 /1 /0 3 0 8 1 5 ,2 0 0 /1 /0 3 1 8 80 0 0 /1 /0 3 1 8 2 0 ,0 0 0 /1 /0 3 2 8 1 0 ,0 0 0 /1 /0 3 4 8 70 0 0 /1 /0 3 4 8 50 0 0 /1 /0 3 8 8 2 0 ,3 0 0 /1 /0 3 9 8 1 5 ,2 0 0 /2 /0 3 0 8 1 0 ,0 0 0 /2 /0 3 0 8 1 0 ,0 0 0 /2 /0 3 0 8 2 0 ,0 0 0 /2 /0 3 4 8 90 0 0 /2 /0 3 4 8 1 0 ,4 0 0 /2 /0 3 5 8 20 0 0 /2 /0 3 6 8 1 0 ,0 0 0 /2 /0 3 6 8 1 5 ,2 0 A p dto p lie : Indirect Indirect Job 1 1 0 Job 1 2 0 Job 1 1 0 Job 1 2 0 Indirect Job 1 1 0 Job 1 1 0 Una pplied Job 1 1 0 Job 1 2 0 Job 1 1 0 Indirect Una pplied Job 1 1 0 Una pplied Job 1 2 0 Job 1 2 0 Job 1 1 0 Una pplied Indirect

2. Go to the Insert tab on the ribbon, and select the PivotTable button.
3. Once you click on the PivotTable button a new screen will pop-up.
Select your data on the sheet, and check that you would like the pivot table to be created in a new sheet as seen below
4. Now you can click OK. 5. As you can see, your pivot table is shown within a new sheet, and now a new box has opened on the left side of your screen. This box allows you to modify the data within Excel. The lists shown in the Fields box are the headers of your data columns in the Data sheet. You should now select the field names, and drag them into the boxes below. For a detailed example see the screen captures below:
4-32
6. When you look at the pivot table you can see that it has summed
up left-to-right, and top-to-bottom. This data is the same as the information given in parts a and b of the self-study problem.
7. The drop-down boxes within the pivot table allow you to modify what data will be shown within the pivot table. Select the dropdown box for Purchased Products and select only Material X. As you can see below, this changed your pivot table to only show data relevant to Material X.
4-33
8. To change the format of the data within the pivot table is the same as changing the data of a normal cell. You can select from the formatting shortcut box, or you can right click on each, or all by selecting all the cells, and selecting Format cells Format your numbers into this format 2,222.
9. Your final result should look like the pivot table below:
4-46 Job Costing (40 min) 1. Total labor cost (2,800+3,800+1,700 direct labor factory hours used) x $30/DLH = $249,000 Applied Overhead $896,400 OH application rate = $896,400/$249,000 = 360% direct labor cost Beginning Materials Inventory = +Total materials purchased in July - Materials used in July ($21,340+26,000+16,000) = = Ending balance in Materials Inventory $ 42,500 45,000 63,340 $24,160

4-47 Assigning Overhead to Jobs; Ethics (20 min) The management accountant should keep the professional ethics code in mind. First, he or she should try to persuade other pilot project members and the company controller to strongly recommend the top management to adopt the more accurate departmental overhead rate method. If the company top management still would not listen, the management accountant should report the situation to the companys audit committee. 4-48 Operation Costing (30 Min) 1.

Normal spoilage is the occurrence of unacceptable units arising under efficient operating conditions. Normal spoilage is an inherent result of the particular process or operation and is uncontrollable in the short run. The costs associated with normal spoilage are typically viewed as part of the cost of the good units produced. Abnormal spoilage is spoilage that is not expected to arise under efficient operating conditions and is not an inherent part of the production process. Accordingly, abnormal spoilage is usually considered controllable and is not included as a portion of the cost of good units produced but as an expense of the period. 2. a. Spoiled units are unacceptable units of production that are either discarded or sold for disposal value. b. Rework units are unacceptable units or production that are subsequently reconditioned into good units which can be sold as acceptable finished goods.

c. Scrap represents inputs that do not become part of the output and have minor economic value when compared to the sales value of the completed product. 3. a. An analysis of the 5,000 units rejected by Richport Company for Job No. N1192-122 yields the following breakdown between normal and abnormal spoilage. Units Normal spoilage (see below)* 3,000 Abnormal spoilage: Design defect (given) 900 Other [5,000 (3,000 + 900)]1,100 2,000 Total units rejected 5,000 *Normal spoilage = .025 of units of good production (where good production = production before any spoilage) Good Production for 117,000 units = 117,000 / (1-.025)= 120,000 units; if we produced 120,000 units, we would expect a normal spoilage of 2.5% for a net of 117,000 units; so Normal spoilage = 120,000 x .025 = 3,000 units, or 120,000 117,000 = 3,000 4-49 (continued -1) b.

Note: There is a tutorial explaining the use of Pivot tables in Excel at the end of the solution for problem 4-45. Note, also: The solution can be arrived at without using pivot tables. A convenient alternative would be to use the Data Sort and the Data Subtotals commands. For example, the following sequence would provide the needed job totals for materials and labor hours for each department for each job. a. Mark the data on materials requisitions and time tickets, and sort this by job number b. For the same range of data, use Data Subtotals by Job for Materials cost (see example screen shot below) to find the materials cost for each job
c. Return to Data Subtotals for the same range of data and select to remove subtotals d. Use Data Subtotals by Department for labor hours to find the labor hours for each department for each job.

Problem 4-51 (continued -1) 4. The analyses in parts 1-3 show: a) An annual pricing rate under the annual approach would be $141.98, while the quarterly approach would produce prices ranging from a low of $121.50 in the third quarter to high a of $202.50 in the second quarter. Note that the quarterly rates determined above are based on the assumption, stated in the case, that the rate for any quarter is based on the actual results of the prior quarter. b) The result of the quarterly policy as implemented is to have overhead rates and pricing rates relatively high in the high volume quarters, the quarters in which per-hour overhead rates are the lowest. This arises because the high and low quarters alternate, and the rates are calculated for one quarter to apply to the next. It appears that George and Steve may be unaware of the fact that volume differences between quarters affect their overhead rates and prices from quarter to quarter. Strategically, this means they are unable to compete effectively in price setting, given their cost information. c) The effect of using the quarterly rates, relative to the annual rates, is that prices and revenues are higher for the high volume months under the quarterly method. The result is higher variability of prices and profits, from quarter to quarter, using the quarterly rates. The annual rate approach reduces this variability among quarters. This could be used as a strong argument that the annual rate should be used, as the text argues. Note from examining the solution above that this is true whether we use the contribution income statement or the conventional full cost income statement. The higher variability of revenues and profits could cause strategic problems, such as creating problems in cash flow management, as cash flows fluctuate significantly from season to season. Total annual profit is greater under the quarterly rate approach ($2,320,625 relative to $1,615,625 for the annual rates) because the quarterly approach has higher rates in the high volume quarters. Total costs are the same in both approaches but revenues are higher for the quarterly approach. The fact that Mansfield is charging somewhat higher rates during the high volume months is probably what has caused some customers to say that some of Mansfields competitors have better prices. By using annual rates, Mansfield is likely to address this pricing problem and also to reduce the
4-45
4-51 (continued -2) variability in profits among quarters. Of course, it also appears that going to the annual rate could also reduce profits. The demand figures used in the analysis are the actual figures for the prior year, so using an annual rate would have produced lower profits in the prior year if demand were the same. d) If the use of annual rates would significantly increase demand, then George and Steve should consider the change, as it would increase profits and reduce variability in pricing and profits across quarters. However, there is a significant difference in annual profit figures for the two methods ( $2,320,625 - $1,615,625 = $705,000, or 30% of current profit). This suggests that demand would have to increase significantly. There are two issues that now arise: can Mansfield achieve the significant increase in demand with annual rates? if the increased demand comes in the two busiest quarters (as is likely to happen), will Mansfield have the capacity to meet the increase? Note that the firms capacity per quarter is approximately 27 machines x 150 hours x 3 months = 12,150 machine hours. Right now the busiest quarter has 12,500 machine hours of demand, indicating that these machines are already used beyond planned capacity levels in this quarter, and thus, any increase in capacity means a need for more machines, an investment that should be carefully considered. e) Given the seasonality of the business, George and Steve may want to consider monthly profit reports, irrespective of the overhead rate and pricing method chosen. f) A good additional question for class discussion would be the following: What would be the effect of the choice of a quarterly or annual rate on the quarterly income statements if Mansfield were to close the overhead account quarterly and close the underapplied or overapplied overhead to cost of goods sold? The solution shown for parts 1,2 and 3 above assumes that underapplied or overapplied overhead is charged to cost of goods sold quarterly. The solution for overhead closed at year end for both the quarterly rate and the annual rate is shown below. The year end closing of the overhead variance tends to reduce the variability in profit across the quarters
4-46
4-51 (continued -3) g) the high volume quarters are in effect charged a higher amount of overhead. Note that the overhead variances for the annual rate net to zero over the four quarters.

4-52 Overhead Rates Used for Each Machine in a Printing Plant (Note: See also the Comments on Cost Management in Action at the end of the chapter regarding a similar costing situation) This short case is intended as a basis for class discussion that could initiate the following topics and questions: application of job costing in the printing industry; what are the factors driving the accuracy of product costing; how does the choice of job costing method affect pricing; what is the effect of cost allocation methods on management behavior, performance evaluation, and how does a chosen cost method advance or hinder the firms progress to its strategic goals? Some observations that I would bring out in this discussion include:
4-47
EFS uses a job costing system in which materials and direct labor are traced to the job, and overhead is traced to each machine and then applied to the jobs based on machine usage A strength would be that EFS has put a lot of effort into tracing the printing costs accurately and using an overhead allocation approach that attempts to trace the costs of the machinery to the jobs that used that machinery I would begin a discussion of the EFS approach to allocating other overhead costs insurance, supervision, and office salaries to the jobs based on the capacity of the machines. That is, machines with more printing capacity (where capacity is the number of feet of forms produced per minute of machine time) will receive a larger portion of this portion of overhead. This is very much like a volume based rate, which is OK, but does not reflect the actual behavior of these costs. Suppose the total of other overhead is significant. Then small jobs on high capacity (fast) machines will be charged a relatively high rate. Conversely, large jobs on low-capacity machines will be charged a relatively low rate. How this would affect pricing and the allocation of jobs to machines is not easy to predict. The strategic issue is (as in Problem 4-51above) the (unknown) impact of cost calculations on competitive pricing, and therefore on the companys competitiveness. The success of the company depends on its ability to set a competitive price, recognizing that the company has unused capacity (in a seasonal business) in some periods of the year. Source: Jacci L. Rodgers, S. Mark Comstock and Karl Pritz, Customize Your Costing System, Management Accounting, May 1993, pp. 31-32. See also, Lisa Cross, Benefiting from Costing and Pricing Tools, Graphic Arts Monthly, July 2004, pp 32-34. 4-53 Plantwide vs. Departmental Overhead Rate (30 Min) 1. Empco Inc. is currently using a plantwide overhead rate that is applied on the basis of direct labor dollars. In general, a plantwide factory overhead rate is acceptable only if a similar relationship between overhead and direct labor exists in all departments, or the company manufactures products, which receive proportional services from each department.
4-48
In most cases, departmental overhead rates are preferable to plantwide overhead rates because plantwide overhead rates do not provide: a framework for reviewing overhead costs on a departmental basis, identifying departmental cost overruns, or taking corrective action to improve departmental cost control. sufficient information about product profitability, thus, increasing the difficulties associated with management decisionmaking. 2. Because Empco uses a plantwide overhead rate applied on the basis of direct labor dollars, the elimination of direct labor in the Drilling Department through the introduction of robots may appear to reduce the overhead cost of the Drilling Department to zero. However, this change will not reduce fixed factory overhead expenses such as depreciation, plant supervision, etc. In reality, the use of robots is likely to increase fixed expenses because of increased depreciation expense. Under Empco's current method of allocating overhead costs, the remaining departments will merely absorb these costs. 4-53 (continued -1) 3. In order to improve the allocation of overhead costs , Empco should: establish separate overhead accounts (pools) and rates for the Drilling Department. identify, if possible, fixed and variable overhead costs and establish fixed and variable overhead rates. apply overhead costs to the Drilling Department on the basis of robot or machine hours.

Using Direct Labor-hours: Department A Department B Total DL-hours 1,000 x 12 1,000 x 8 = 12,000 hours = 8,000 hours 20,000 hours Overhead applied 12,000 x $24 8,000 x $24 = $288,000 = $192,000 $480,000 Using Machine-hours: Department A Department B Total Machine-hours 1,000 x 5 1,000 x 15 = 5,000 hours = 15,000 hours 20,000 hours Overhead applied 5,000 x $24 15,000 x $24 = $120,000 = $360,000 $480,000 4. If direct labor-hours are used to apply factory overhead, Department A is overcharged and Department B is undercharged. If machine hours are used, Department A is undercharged and Department B is overcharged. The reason is that each department has a different cost driver. Department A is labor intensive and Department B is machine intensive. Therefore, using one single plantwide overhead rate is not appropriate. 5. Using direct labor-hours for Department A: Predetermined Overhead Rate = $240,000 / 12,000 = $20 per direct labor-hour Applied Overhead = 1,000 units x 12 hours x $20 = $240,000 Using machine-hour for Department B: Predetermined Overhead Rate = $240,000 / 15,000 = $16 per machine-hour Applied Overhead = 1,000 units x 15 hours x $16 = $240,000
