Question

Entries for Materials

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

Fabric	$19,000
Polyester filling	5,700
Lumber	42,600
Glue	1,800

The materials purchased during June are summarized from the receiving reports as follows:

Fabric	$94,200
Polyester filling	130,900
Lumber	258,100
Glue	8,900

Materials were requisitioned to individual jobs as follows:

	Fabric		Polyester Filling		Lumber		Glue		Total
Job 601	$34,900		$44,000		$117,600				$196,500
Job 602	26,900		47,800		103,000				177,700
Job 603	24,800		32,500		57,200				114,500
Factory overhead-indirect materials							$4,500		4,500
Total	$86,600		$124,300		$277,800		$4,500		$493,200

The glue is not a significant cost, so it is treated as indirect materials (factory overhead).
