Fast-Flow Paints produces mixer base paint through a two–stageprocess, Mixing and Packaging. The following events depict themovement of value into and out of production. Journalize each eventif appropriate; if not, provide a short narrative reason as to whyyou chose not to journalize the action. Nelson, the productionmanager, accepts an order to continue processing the current run ofmixer base paint.
(a) | Materials worth $27,000.00 are withdrawn from raw materialsinventory. Of this amount, $25,500.00 will be issued to the MixingDepartment, and the balance will be issued to the MaintenanceDepartment to be used on production line machines. |
(b) | Nelson calculates that labor for the period is $12,500.00. Ofthis amount, $1,750.00 is for maintenance and indirect labor. Theremainder is directly associated with mixing. |
(c) | Nelson, who is paid a salary but earns about $35.00 per hour,spends one hour inspecting the production line. |
(d) | The manufacturing overhead drivers for mixing are hours ofmixer time at $575.00 per hour, and material movements frommaterials at $125.00 per movement. An inspection of the machinetimers reveals that a total of eight hours has been consumed inmaking this product. An inspection of "stocking orders" indicatesthat only one material movement was utilized to load the rawmaterials. (Note: All values have been journalized to FactoryOverhead. You need only apply them to the production run.) |
(e) | Within Fast-Flow, items are transferred between departments ata standard cost. This production run has created 4,015 gallons ofmixer base paint. This paint is transferred to Packaging at astandard cost of $10.05 per gallon. (Round calculation to thenearest whole dollar.) |
(f) | Packaging draws $755.00 of materials for packaging of thisproduction run. |
(g) | Packaging documents that 12 hours of direct labor at $10.25 perhour were consumed in the packaging of this production run. |
(h) | Packaging uses a cost driver of direct labor hours to allocatemanufacturing overhead at the rate of $25.00 per hour. |
(i) | Packaging transfers 4,015 gallons of packaged goods to FinishedGoods Inventory at a standard cost of $10.34 per gallon. (Roundcalculation to the nearest whole dollar.) |
