Accounting

Company manufactures high quality musical instruments for professional musicians. The company uses normal costing and allocates manufacturing overhead based on direct labor hours.

For 2020, the budgeted manufacturing overhead was $500,000 and the budgeted labor-hours were 10,000. The actual hourly wage paid to workers was $42 and the actual labor cost was $462,000. The actual manufacturing overhead was $600,000.

Before any adjustments, the ending balances in the following accounts are:

Direct materials $500,000

Work-in-Process 250,000

Finished Goods 750,000

Cost of Goods Sold 3,000,000

Prepare a journal entry that prorates the write-off of the difference between the allocated and actual overhead using the proration approach based on the ending account balances.
