During 2009, Jackson Company began work on three jobs. Information relating to these three jobs appears below (assume there were no jobs in process at January 1, 2009):

                                            Job #359      Job #360      Job #361
direct materials ..............    $72,000         $45,000        $61,000
direct labor ..................       $54,000          $42,000       $60,000
direct labor hours ............      3,600            2,800          4,000

By the end of 2009, job $359 and job #361 had been completed. Job #360 was not completed by the end of 2009. Additionally, by the end of 2009, job #361 had been sold while job #359 was not sold. During 2009, Jackson Company recorded total actual overhead cost of $100,000.
