Question
Price Manufacturing assigns overhead based on machine hours. Department A logs 600 machine hours and Department B shows 1200 machine hours for the period. If the overhead rate is 18,000b.credit to Work in process — department B for 18,000d.debit to Work in process for $12,000
Solution
The overhead cost is calculated by multiplying the number of machine hours by the overhead rate.
For Department A: 600 machine hours * 6,000
For Department B: 1200 machine hours * 12,000
The total overhead cost for both departments is 12,000 (Department B) = $18,000
Therefore, the entry to assign overhead will show a credit to Manufacturing Overhead Applied for 18,000.
