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 6.02 in May:

$1,500
Less prior costs .............................................................

costs accumulated on the three jobs less the amount of direct labor cost
assigned to Job 6.02 in May:

3. The predetermined overhead rate equals the ratio between the amount
of overhead assigned to the jobs divided by the amount of direct labor
cost assigned to them. Since the rate is assumed constant during the
year in this problem, and the same rate is used for all jobs within a
month, the ratio for any one of them equals the rate that was applied.
This table shows the ratio for jobs 6.02 and 6.04:

Reporting in Action — BTN 19-1
1. We would anticipate that at least two types of costs will increase as a
percent of sales with Polaris’s growth in domestic sales. The first type
is broadly classed into variable costs. Variable costs are the usual
2. Both types of costs identified in part 1 are likely to increase as Polaris
expands into more markets. Examples of specific items include
communication, advertising, training, travel, and management costs. In
3. Solution depends on the annual report information obtained.

2. A successful JIT system should reduce inventory levels. This reduction
in inventory should increase operating cash flows. In the solution of
part 1, notice that decreases in inventory yield increases in operating
3. This is a one-time occurrence of a release of cash. However, this one-
time adjustment can yield a recurring impact on returns if such freed up

Ethics Challenge — BTN 19-3
Instructor note: This problem is designed to illustrate why the accounting professional
must be aware of management’s and employees’ biases when working with and relying
on accounting estimates and data.

Suggested content outline
The obvious concern is that management is allocating more overhead to
government jobs compared to open market bid contracts. There is no
obvious reason for such behavior other than a profit motive.
Specifically, by allocating more overhead to government jobs, profits on
government jobs will increase in relation to cost. Conversely, private
market jobs will show greater profits because more overhead is allocated
to government jobs and less to private jobs.
This type of abuse in overhead allocation is a real problem in practice.
This is why we hear of “$500 hammers” sold to the U.S. Government.
Communicating in Practice — BTN 19-4
Student notes should include but not be limited to the following points:
1. You recommend replacing the general accounting (periodic inventory)
system with a cost accounting (perpetual inventory) system—
specifically a job order cost accounting system. Cost accounting
systems provide product cost information as products are
2. This new system would require use of many different documents to
control the acquisition, use, and availability of materials. It also requires
documents for allocation of labor and overhead costs, and for finished
3. The focal point of the new system is the job cost sheet, which is used to

Instructor note: There is no single solution to this assignment.
The Website [amsi.com] provides details about what its job costing
software can provide to users. After careful examination, students can
write a report to the CEO, which may include the following points:
Teamwork in Action — BTN 19-6
1. A medical clinic can be considered as appropriate for a job order cost
accounting system. This is because each patient is unique in many
ways, such as the type/location of the illness (skin, heart, lung, etc.),
2. In light of the differences identified in part 1, the doctors will consider
the individual characteristics of every patient in determining the type
Entrepreneurial Decision — BTN 19-7
1. A job cost sheet for a service company would likely not have any costs
2. Examples of direct labor and overhead costs for Astor and Black
include:
