Types of Product-Costing Systems


Process
Costing

Job-Order
Costing

Used for production of large, unique, high-cost items.


Built to order rather than mass produced.
Many costs can be directly traced to each job.
TWO TYPES:
Job-shop operations
Products manufactured in very low volumes or
at a time.

one

Batch-production operations
Multiple products in batches of relatively small
quantity.

Costing

Job-Order
Costing

Used for production of small, identical, low cost


items.
Mass produced in automated continuous
production process.
Costs cannot be directly traced to each unit of
product.
Typical process cost applications:
Petrochemical refinery
Paint manufacturer
Paper mill

Manufacturing Overhead Costs


Overhead is applied to jobs using a predetermined
overhead rate (POHR) based on estimates made at
the beginning of the accounting period.
1

POHR =

Budgeted manufacturing overhead cost


Budgeted
amount of cost driver (or activity base)
2

Overhead applied = POHR Actual activity


Based on estimates, and
determined before the
period begins

Actual amount of the allocation


base, such as direct labor hours,
incurred during the period

Manufacturing Overhead Costs


Overhead is applied to jobs using a
predetermined overhead rate (POHR) based on

POHR =

Overhead applied = POHR Actual activity


Recall the Aluminum Boat example where:
Overhead applied = $30 per DLH 600 DLH = $18,000

Labor Time Records

The production order for the job authorizes the start


of the production process.
The materials requisition indicates the cost of
direct material to charge to jobs and the cost of
indirect material to charge to overhead.
Employee time tickets indicate the cost of direct
labor to charge to jobs and the cost of indirect
labor to charge to overhead.

Overhead Application Example


Actual Overhead costs for the year: $5,050,000
Actual direct labor hours worked for the year: 170,000
Applied Overhead = POHR Actual Direct Labor Hours
Applied Overhead = $30.00 per DLH 170,000 DLH = $5,100,000

Applied overhead exceeds actual overhead by $50,000


This difference is called overapplied overhead.
