Normal Vs. Actual Costing• Normal costing
– Used effectively when there are multiple products– Allocates manufacturing overhead to individual
products based on a ‘predetermined’ rate calculation
–Based on estimates
• Actual costing– Allocates manufacturing overhead to individual
products based on an end of period rate calculation
–Based on actual amounts

How Costs Get Assigned to Products• Direct materials and direct labor
– Traced to a product or service provided– Because it is easy to determine which
product/service to which the cost belongs – By definition, direct costs are directly associated
• Manufacturing overhead– Consists solely of indirect costs– Indirect costs cannot be easily identified with one
specific product or service– Allocated to products and services

Acquiring Raw MaterialsThe Purchasing Manager fills out an electronic
purchase order to order materials from a supplier
When materials are received, the Materials Storeroom Clerk records and stocks the
materials in the storeroom.
2
The Materials Storeroom Clerk sends the receiving report to Accounting for
payment.

Materials Requisition 7
The production supervisor fills out a materials requisition form.

The materials storeroom clerk delivers the
requested materials to the production area.

Direct Labor8
• Employees fill out time tickets which indicate the hours worked on each product
• Time tickets = source documents• Direct labor cost = gross wages + fringe benefits Gross wages = [Hourly rate] × [Number of hours worked] Fringe benefits
Normally included as part of the direct labor ‘rate’ Overtime premium (the extra ‘half’ time paid)
If the result of production problems, treat as manufacturing overhead
If the result of accepting a rush order, treat as direct labor Idle time
Treat as overheadIncur direct labor costs Debit Work in Process Credit Cash or Wages Payable

Manufacturing OverheadIncludes indirect materials, indirect labor, and factory
(production facility) related costs
Incur factory-related costs• Debit Manufacturing Overhead• Credit Cash, Payables, Prepaids, etc.
Requisition indirect materials to production• Debit Manufacturing Overhead• Credit Raw Materials
Incur indirect labor costs• Debit Manufacturing Overhead• Credit Cash, Salaries payable, etc.

Accounting for Overhead in a Normal Costing System
• When actual overhead costs are incurred– Debit to MOH expense account
• Apply (allocate) overhead to products– Predetermined MOH rate(s)
• Traditional method - use a single rate • Activity based costing – use multiple rates
– Multiply the rate(s) times the actual activity• Debit WIP• Credit MOH expense
• When is overhead applied? – As the activity occurs
This chapter assumes a single rate
![Page 11: Prepared by Diane Tanner University of North Florida](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070420/56815e51550346895dcccc22/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Assigning OverheadNORMAL COSTING• Overhead rate is determined at the beginning of
the period using estimated amounts• MOH is ‘applied’ (allocated) to products
– During production
11
ACTUAL COSTING• Overhead rate is determined at the end of the
period using actual amounts• MOH is ‘applied’ (allocated) to products
– At the end of the period
![Page 12: Prepared by Diane Tanner University of North Florida](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070420/56815e51550346895dcccc22/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
12
Selecting an Activity • The denominator of the pre-determined overhead rate
is ‘estimated activity’• Common estimated activities include
– Number of units to be produced– Number of direct labor hours to be used– Number of direct labor dollars to be incurred– Number of machine hours to be used
• Based on management’s best guess of what causes costs to increase

Applying Overhead Based on UnitsMcAlister Company provided the following amounts:
Estimated MOH costs = $50,000Actual MOH costs = $49,500Estimated units to be produced = 4,000Actual units produced = 4,100
The company allocates overhead based on units produced.
Step 1: Determine the allocation rate (POHR) =$50,000/4,000 = $12.50/unit
Step 2: Apply overhead: Applied = $12.50 x 4,100 = $51,250
MOH

Applying Overhead Based on DL Hours
Step 1: Determine an allocation rate (POHR) =$50,000/12,500 = $4.00/DL hour
Step 2: Apply overhead: Applied = $4.00 x 12,400 = $49,600
MOH
49,500 49,600
100 overapplied
McAlister Company provided the following amounts:Estimated MOH costs = $50,000Actual MOH costs = $49,500Estimated direct labor hours = 12,500Actual direct labor hours = 12,400
The company allocates overhead based on DL hours.

Applying Overhead Based on DL Cost
Step 1: Determine an allocation rate (POHR) =$50,000/156,250 = $0.32 per DL$
Step 2: Apply overhead: Applied = $0.32 x $153,600 = $49,152

Why is Normal Costing Better than Actual Costing?
• Overhead is applied during production– Enables managers to know product and job
costs as production occurs, i.e., on a timely basis• Waiting until the end of the period when
actual costs are known makes information untimely
– Useful for making decisions such as pricing, product changes, etc.
16
Overhead cannot be traced to products because it is impractical or impossible to
identify these costs with a particular product.

Completing Products The cost of completed goods is transferred out
of Work in Process Debit Finished Goods Credit Work in Process
The cost transferred out is called Cost of Goods Manufactured

Selling Products Transfer the cost of products sold out of Finished
Goods Debit Cost of Goods Sold Credit Finished Goods
Recognize the sale Debit Cash or AR Credit Sales Revenue
