Here are data for the company for January:

7. Overhead costs incurred other than indirect labor and indirect materials were depreciation, $6,000, and utilities, fuel, and miscellaneous, $6,000.
Management is concerned about the relationship between costs incurred on jobs and the costs expected to be incurred, and has asked for your help. Here are the expected total costs (direct materials, direct labor, and overhead) for the three jobs:
Job 100 $ 60,000
Job 101 120,000
Job 102 130,000
These cost estimates cover the entire job, including both costs in beginning Work in Process Inventory and costs incurred during January.
a. Compare the costs incurred on each job, including the costs in beginning Work in Process Inventory and costs incurred during January with the expected costs. Is the company keeping its costs below the expected costs for each job?
b. Prepare an income statement for January 2014 assuming selling and administrative expenses for January were $50,000. Don’t forget to transfer any underapplied or overapplied overhead balance to Cost of Goods Sold.
c. Is the company profitable (that is, showing net income greater than zero)? What suggestions can you make for management to help increase the company’s net income?
