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 602 in May:
2. Direct labor cost incurred in the month equals the total direct labor
costs accumulated on the three jobs less the amount of direct labor cost
assigned to Job 602 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 602 and 604:
Job 602
Job 604
4. The cost transferred to finished goods in June equals the total costs of
the two completed jobs for the month, which are Jobs 602 and 603:

The obvious concern is that management is allocating more overhead to
government jobs compared to open market bid contracts. There is no
