Explanation / Answer

7. Answer: Option B. $10,000

Cost of goods manufactured $275,000 = Direct materials $110,000 ($7,000 + $118,000 - $15,000) + Direct labor $70,000 + Overheads applied $90,000 + Beginning work in process – Ending work in process $5,000

$275,000 = $265,000 + Beginning work in process

Beginning work in process = $275,000 - $265,000 = $10,000

8. Answer: Option C. $250,000

Overheads incurred $80,000 – Overheads applied $90,000 = Overheads overapplied $10,000

Unadjusted cost of goods sold = $260,000

Adjusted cost of goods sold = Unadjusted cost of goods sold $260,000 – Overapplied overheads $10,000 = $250,000
