Floyd’s Auto Repair Shop uses a job order cost system to track
the cost of each repair. Floyd’s applies its garage or shop
overhead at a rate of $20 per direct labor hour spent on each
repair. Floyd’s uses the following accounts to track the cost of
all repairs:
Raw Materials (parts and supplies) | |
Repair Jobs in Process | |
Cost of Repairs Completed and Sold | |
Garage/Shop* Overhead Costs | |
* Because an auto shop does not manufacture a product, the overhead cost would include all of the indirect costs that are incurred in the garage or shop that cannot be traced to a specific repair job.
The following transactions occurred during the most recent month:
(a) Purchased raw materials (parts and supplies) on account $22,600.
(b) Used $15,700 in raw materials (parts and supplies). Of this, $14,000 was for major parts that were traceable to individual repair jobs, and the remainder was for incidental supplies such as lubricants, rags, fuel, and so on.
