Job Order Cost Accounting
QUESTIONS
1. Factory overhead is not identified with specific units (jobs) or batches (job lots).
Therefore, to assign costs, estimates of the relation between factory overhead cost
2. Several other factors (allocation bases) are possible and reasonable. These common
factors often include direct materials or machine hours.
3. The job order cost sheet captures information on cost and quantity of direct material
4. Each job is assigned a subsidiary ledger account. This account serves as the
“posting account” (accumulates all increases and decreases) during production for
direct material, direct labor, and applied factory overhead. The collection of job cost
5. A debit (increase) to Goods in Process Inventory for direct materials, a debit
6. The materials requisition slip is designed to track the movement of materials from
7. The clock card is used to record the number of hours each employee works and is
used to compute total payroll. The time ticket is used to record how much time an
1078 Fundamental Accounting Principles, 21st Edition
8. Debits (increases) to factory overhead are the recording of actual overhead costs,
9. Assuming that the overapplied or underapplied overhead is immaterial, it is closed to
the Cost of Goods Sold account. However, if the amount is material—meaning it
10. This production run should be accounted for as a job lot (batch). Although individual
snowmobile helmets could be viewed as individual jobs, the costs of tracking this
11. A predetermined factory overhead rate must be calculated for at least two reasons:
(1) Not all costs are known in advance, yet the costs must be applied to products
during the current period. (2) A predetermined rate is used to spread indirect costs
12. Each patient in a hospital can be viewed as a “job.” In this case, a job order cost
13. Each of the 30 luxury motorcycles will likely be accounted for as an individual job.
Although similar in many respects, each would have custom features that would
14. Sprint employees can use job cost sheets to accumulate the costs (e.g. labor and
materials) used on each job. Managers can use this job cost information to monitor

1. The cost of direct materials requisitioned in the month equals the total
direct materials costs accumulated on the three jobs less the amount of
direct materials cost assigned to Job 102 in May:

overhead assigned to jobs divided by the amount of direct labor cost
assigned to them. Since the same rate is used for all jobs started and
completed within a month, the ratio for any one job equals the rate that
was applied. This table shows the ratio for jobs 102 and 104:
