Problem 2) Elliot Company estimated that costs of production for the coming year would be:
Raw materials $75,000
Direct Labor $90,000
Production Overhead $135,000
Calculate the overhead rate for the next year, assuming that it is based on direct labor dollars.
Journalize the entry necessary to show the total cost of production for the month of May if the raw materials put into production totaled $6.500 and direct labor was $6,600.
If actual production overhead cost incurred in May were $9,550, calculate the over absorbed overhead for the month.
