CHAPTER 5
JOB ORDER COSTING
QUESTIONS
1.
Thetwochoicesforcostaccumulationarethejoborderandprocesscosting
systems. A company should use job order costing when it is necessary and
possibletotracecoststoproductsmadeforindividualcustomers,andwhenthe
products madeforonecustomerareverydifferent fromthosemadeforother
customers.
Aprocesscostingsystemisappropriateforproductionenvironmentsthatmake
homogeneousproducts,usuallyinlargequantities,inbatchorcontinuousflow
systems.
2.
Thethreevaluationmethodsareactual,normal,andstandardcosting.Inactual
costing,theactualamountsofmaterial,labor,andoverheadcostsareassignedto
production. In normal costing, the actual amounts of material and labor are
assigned to production; however, overhead is applied to products using a
predeterminedoverheadrate(ratherthanusingtheactualamount).
Instandardcosting,standard(orexpectednorm)amountsareestablishedfor
material,labor,andoverheadcostsand/orquantitiesandarechargedtoproduction
ratherthantheactualcosts.Thestandardforoverheadisthepredeterminedrate
(orrates)forthecompany.Actualcostsareaccumulatedinastandardcosting
systemsothattheymaybecomparedwithstandardcoststodeterminedfavorable
andunfavorablevariances.
3.
Theprincipaldocumentsarejobordercostsheets,materialrequisitionforms,
andemployeetimesheets.Ajobordercostsheetprovidesalldetailsforaspecific
jobandisusedtotracktheactualcostsofdirectmaterialanddirectlabor,and
eitheractualorappliedmanufacturingoverheadassociatedwithaparticularjob;
suchamountsmaybecomparedtobudgetedcosts.Materialrequisitionformsare
usedtoinitiatetheremovalofthematerialfrominventoryforuseinaparticular
job. Employee time sheets are used to track the time worked by individual
employeestospecificjobs.
4.
Jobordercostinginformationallowsmanagerstobetterestimatethecostsof
producingproductsandofservingspecificcustomers.Thisinformationcanbe
used to manage costs, identify which customers generate the most profitable
business,andsetpricesforproductsandservices.
5.
Ifnormalspoilageisgenerallyanticipatedonalljobsinajobordercosting
system,theestimatedoverheadusedinsettingthepredeterminedoverheadrate
shouldincludeanamountforthenetcostofthespoilage.Thistreatmentallows
thecostofnormalspoilagetobespreadoveralljobsproduced.Incontrast,if

thejobthatgaverisetothespoilage.
6.
Normalspoilagereferstoanexpectedreductioninproductionquantitybased
onacompanysproductiontechnology,qualityofmaterialandlaborused,and
production practices. The level of such a loss may be established from
management or engineering; given cost/benefit analysis, management has
generallyconcludedthatacertainlevelofdefectsislessexpensivethantryingto
prevent all defects from occurring. Because normal spoilage is expected, an
estimateforthelossisgenerallyincludedinthedevelopmentofthepredetermined
overheadrate.
Alternatively, abnormal spoilage refers to a loss level above that which is
normallyexpected.Suchlossesaremorelikelytobepreventableand,thus,need
tobebroughttomanagementsattentionbyshowingtheamountofthelossasa
periodcost.
7.
When standards are used in a job order costing system, cost and quantity
standardsmaynotbeabletobedeterminedformaterialandlabor.Standardscan
onlybeusedifelementsofthejobsproducedhavesomecommoncharacteristics.
Thus, if many jobs use the same direct material, a price standard might be
developedforthatmaterial.However,thejobsmayuseverydifferentquantitiesof
thatmaterial,andthus,noquantitystandardcanbedeveloped.Alternatively,a
companymaypaythesamewageratetoallworkersperformingtasksinaspecific
departmentandalljobsflowthroughthatdepartment;insuchacase,alaborwage
standardcanbedeterminedbutpossiblynotalaborhourquantitystandard.
8.
Inastandardcostingsystem,variancesidentifytheareasofefficiencyand
inefficiency in production operations. Managers, using the concept of
managementbyexception,focustheirattentiononthesignificantvariancesand
attempttodeterminecausesofthosevariances(bothfavorableandunfavorable).
Additionally,managerswilllookforinteractionsbetweenoramongthevariances.
Byconcentratingonthesignificantvariances,managers areabletoisolatethe
aspectsofoperationsthatareoutofcontrolandtrytocorrectthecauses.

Two characteristics of the proposal are critical in

advisingLondonaboutacostingsystem:theexpectedhighsalesvolumeandthe
repetitive nature of production implied by that high sales volume. These
characteristics indicate that Londons best choice would be to use a process
costing system and standard cost valuations. Standard costing would benefit
Londonbecauseitwouldhelpidentifyinefficienciesinproductionoperationsand
helpheridentifywaystoreduceproductioncosts.
The homogeneous nature of the product makes the use of job order costing
unnecessary(itshighercostisnotjustified).

selected. Some will discuss the yachts size; others will discuss the interior
finishes; others will discuss the navigation equipment. The $23.9 million

13. a.Thedirectmaterialchargeof$658,000ishigherthantheestimateby$158,000.
Assumingthattherewerenoerrorsintheestimatedandactualamounts,then
either the price paid for the material or the quantity of material used was
substantiallyhigherthanexpected.Tobeginthevalidationprocess,detailsof
theoriginalestimatetoidentifypricesandquantitiesofmaterialforthisjob
wouldneedtobeexamined.
Thestartingpointtovalidatethematerialpricesandquantitiespurchasedisto
examine vendor invoices billed to Quindo. These invoices will validate
materialpurchasequantitiesandpricespaidbyQuindo.Additionally,material
requisition forms should be examined to validate the quantity of material
actuallyusedinproduction.Next,anexaminationofthematerialcost(material
quantity multiplied by material price) on the job order cost sheet should
reconciletothequantityofmaterialshownonthematerialrequisitionforms.
b.
Thedirectlaborchargeof$625,000ishigherthanthe
estimateby$225,000.Assumingthattherewerenoerrorsintheestimatedand
actual amounts, then either the hourly rate paid to or the number of hours
workedbyemployees was substantially higherthanexpected. Tobeginthe
validationprocess,detailsoftheoriginalestimatetoidentifyratesandhoursfor
laboronthisjobwouldneedtobeexamined.
Thestartingpointtovalidatethelaborratesandhoursworkedistoexamine
employeetimesheets(orotherlaboraccumulationdocuments).Thetimesheets
willvalidatewhichemployeesworkedonthejobandforwhatperiodoftime.
A discussion with the payroll manager should help ascertain the actual or
averagewageratespaidtoemployees.PossiblysomeofQuindosemployees
whowerelistedasworkingonthejobshouldbeinterviewedtodeterminethe
accuracyofthetimesheets.
c.
The predetermined overhead rate could have been

manipulatedtoahigherratebyusingalowerdenominatorlevelofactivitythan
was appropriate. Additionally, inappropriate costs (such as period costs in
additiontoproductoverheadcosts)couldhavebeenincludedinthenumerator.
Alargeestimateforspoilageanddefectcostsmightalsohavebeenincludedin
thenumeratorwhen,infact,suchcostsrarelyoccuratQuindoIndustries.
d.
Thecompanysbehaviorisatbestquestionable.Given
thatthedifferencebetweenactualandestimateddirectmaterialcostwaslikely
known at the point of purchase, Quindo should have notified Salem Corp.
immediatelyoftheexcessiveincreaseincost.Similarnotificationshouldhave
been provided when it was seen that direct labor and machine times were
higherthanexpected.
