Question

Kingsford Furnishings Company manufactures designer furniture. Kingsford Furnishings uses a job order cost system. Balances on April 1 from the materials ledger are as follows:

Fabric	$31,500
Polyester filling	9,500
Lumber	70,600
Glue	3,000

The materials purchased during April on account are summarized from the receiving reports as follows:

Fabric	$155,300
Polyester filling	215,900
Lumber	425,500
Glue	14,800

Materials were requisitioned to individual jobs as follows:

	Fabric		Polyester Filling		Lumber		Glue		Total
Job 601	$59,000		$74,300		$198,800				$332,100
Job 602	45,400		80,800		174,100				300,300
Job 603	41,900		54,900		96,800				193,600
Factory overhead-indirect materials							$7,700		7,700
Total	$146,300		$210,000		$469,700		$7,700		$833,700
