The nature of its product dictates that it be sold in the period it is produced. Thus, no ending work in process or finished goods inventories remain at the end of the period. However, raw materials can be stored and are purchased in bulk when prices are favorable. Per-unit standard product costs are material, S8 (4 pods labor, $6 (0.5 hour and variable overhead, S4 (based on direct labor hours). Budgeted fixed overhead is $54,000. Jacobs accounts for all inventories and cost of goods sold at standard cost and records each variance in a separate account. The following data relate to May 2016 when 17,700 finished units were produced. Finish attempt... a. Assume Jacobs purchased 69,000 pounds of raw materials on account at $2.20 per pound and used 67,000 pounds in May's production, prepare a journal entry to record the purchase of raw materials and a separate journal entry to record the use of raw materials in production. Record these entries using standard costs and include the appropriate materials variances. General Journal Description Debit Credit Materials inventory Materials price variance Accounts payable To record the purchase of direct mater als Work in process inventory Materials efficiency variance Materials inventory To record the use of direct materials b. Assuming employees worked 8,900 direct labor hours at an average hourly rate of $11.70, prepare a journal entry to record actual costs, standard costs, and any labor variances.

Explanation / Answer

a) Standard Rate for Materials = $8 per unit/4 pounds per unit = $2 per pound

  General Journal (Amounts in $)

b) Standard Labor rate per hour = Labor cost per unit/Standard Hour per unit

= $6/0.50 hr = $12 per hour

General Journal (Amounts in $)

c) Variable overhead rate per hour = $4/0.50 hr = $8 per hour

Actual Variable Overhead rate per hour = $74,200/8,900 hrs = $8.33708

Standard Labor hours = 17,700 units*0.50 hr = 8,850 hrs

General Journal (Amounts in $)

Description Debit Credit Materials Inventory (69,000 pounds*$2 per pound) 138,000 Materials Price Variance ($151,800-$138,000) 13,800 Accounts Payable (69,000 pounds*$2.20 per pound) 151,800 (To record the purchase of direct materials) Work in process inventory (17,700 units*4 pounds*$2) 141,600 Materials Efficiency Variance ($141,600-$134,000) 7,600 Materials Inventory (67,000 pounds*$2) 134,000 (To record the use of direct materials)
