Answer:

a

Work In Process $561,200 (debit)

Raw Materials $561,200 (credit)

Being raw materials used in production

b

Ending balance in Raw Materials = $119,800

c

Work In Process : Direct Labor $510,000 (debit)

Work In Process : Indirect Labor $150,000 (debit)

Salaries Payable $660,000 (credit)

d

Overhead applied to production = $574,000

e

total manufacturing cost added = $1,645,200

Explanation:

For the balance in Raw Materials, open a Raw Materials T- Account

Raw Materials T- Account

Beginning Balance                    $75,000

Purchases                                $606,000

Total                                          $681,000

Credit:

Transfer to Production            $561,200

Ending Balance                         $119,800

Total                                         $681,000

Overheads Application

Overheads are applied as follows : Application Rate/ Predetermined rate × Actual Activity.

Predetermined overhead rate is $14.00.

Actual Direct labor hours worked are 41,000

Therefore,

Applied Overheads = $14.00 × 41,000

                                 = $574,000

Total Manufacturing Costs Added during the year [Calculation]

Note : Only Applied overheads instead of actual overheads incurred are accounted for.

Raw materials                        $561,200

Direct labor                            $510,000

Applied Overheads               $574,000

Total                                    $1,645,200
