General Approach to Job Costing
A manufacturing company is planning to sell
a batch of 25 special machines (Job 650) to a
retailer for $114,800.
Step 1:
The cost object is Job 650.
Step 2:
Direct costs are: Direct materials = $50,000
Direct manufacturing labor = $19,000
Step 3:
The cost allocation base is machine-hours.
Job 650 used 500 machine-hours.
2,480 machine-hours were used by all jobs.
Step 4:
Manufacturing overhead costs were $65,100.

Step 5:
Actual indirect cost rate is
$65,100 2,480 = $26.25 per machine-hour.
Step 6:
$26.25 per machine-hour 500 hours = $13,125

Step 7:
Direct materials $50,000
Direct labor 19,000
Factory overhead 13,125
Total $82,125

What is the gross margin of this job?

Revenues $114,800
Cost of goods sold 82,125
Gross margin $ 32,675
What is the gross margin percentage?
$32,675 $114,800 = 28.5%

Distinguish actual costing

from normal costing.

Costing Systems
Actual costing is a system that uses actual

costs to determine the cost of individual jobs.
It allocates indirect costs based on the actual
indirect-cost rate(s) times the actual quantity
of the cost-allocation base(s).

Costing Systems
Normal costing is a method that allocates

indirect costs based on the budgeted
indirect-cost rate(s) times the actual
quantity of the cost allocation base(s).

Normal Costing
Assume that the manufacturing company budgets
$60,000 for total manufacturing overhead costs
and 2,400 machine-hours.
What is the budgeted indirect-cost rate?
$60,000 2,400 = $25 per hour
How much indirect cost was allocated to Job 650?
500 machine-hours $25 = $12,500
Normal Costing
What is the cost of Job 650 under normal costing?

Direct materials $50,000
Direct labor 19,000
Factory overhead 12,500
Total $81,500

Underallocated indirect costs

Overallocated indirect costs

How was the allocated overhead determined?

2,480 machine-hours $25 budgeted rate = $62,000
$65,100 $62,000 = $3,100 (underallocated)

Actual manufacturing overhead costs of $65,100

are more than the budgeted amount of $60,000.
Actual machine-hours of 2,480 are more than
the budgeted amount of 2,400 hours.

Approaches to disposing underallocated

or overallocated overhead:
1. Adjusted allocation rate approach
2. Proration approaches
3. Immediate write-off to Cost of Goods
Sold approach

Adjusted Allocation
Rate Approach
Actual manufacturing overhead ($65,100)

exceeds manufacturing overhead allocated
($62,000) by 5%.
3,100 62,000 = 5%
Actual manufacturing overhead rate is $26.25
per machine-hour ($65,100 2,480) rather
than the budgeted $25.00.
Adjusted Allocation
Rate Approach
The manufacturing company could increase
the manufacturing overhead allocated to
each job by 5%.
Manufacturing overhead allocated to Job 650
under normal costing is $12,500.
$12,500 5% = $625
$12,500 + $625 = $13,125, which equals
actual manufacturing overhead.
Proration Approach
Basis to prorate under- or overallocated overhead:

total amount of manufacturing overhead
allocated (before proration)
ending balances of Work in Process, Finished
Goods, and Cost of Goods Sold

Proration Approach A
Assume the following manufacturing

overhead component of year-end
balances (before proration):
Work in Process $23,500 38%
Finished Goods 26,000 42%
Cost of Goods Sold 12,500 20%
Total $62,000 100%
Proration Approach A

0 23,802 Cost of
Goods Sold Work in Process
81,500 40,000

1,178 82,120 41,178

Proration Approach B
Ending balances of Work in Process,

Finished Goods, and Cost of Goods Sold
Work in Process $ 40,000 28%
Finished Goods 22,500 16%
Cost of Goods Sold 81,500 56%
Total $144,000 100%

Proration Approach B

Apply variations from

normal costing.

Variations of Normal Costing
Home Health budget includes the following:

Total direct labor costs: $400,000
Total indirect costs: $96,000
Total direct (professional) labor-hours: 16,000

What is the budgeted direct labor cost rate?

$400,000 16,000 = $25
What is the budgeted indirect cost rate?
$96,000 16,000 = $6

Suppose a patient uses 25 direct labor-hours.

Assuming no other direct costs, what is the
cost to Home Health?
Direct labor: 25 hours $25 = $625
Indirect costs: 25 hours $6 = 150
Total $775
