Job 39 Job 40 Job 41 Job 42 Job 43

Balance, April 1 540 3400 2990 _ _

Direct Materials 700 560 375 3500 6900

Direct Materials 500 600 490 2500 3000

Exercise 4-53: To prepare journal entries for the month of July with the following CHANGES. First, assume that the company uses a plantwide overhead rate based on direct labor dollars.

direct labor hours 4,000 3400 1980 1600 1400

By July, Jobs 741 and 743 were completed and sold. The remaining jobs were in process
