Roche Mfg. Company
You are engaged in an audit of the Roche Mfg. Company for the year ended December 31, 2007. To reduce the workload at year-end, the company took its annual physical inventory under your observation on November 30, 2007. The company's inventory account, which includes raw materials and work in process, is on a perpetual basis and it uses the first-in, first-out method of pricing. It has no finished goods inventory. The company's physical inventory revealed that the book inventory of $60,570 was understated by $3,000. To avoid distorting the interim financial statements, the company decided not to adjust the book inventory until year-end except for obsolete inventory items. Your audit revealed this information about the November 30 inventory:
a. Pricing tests showed that the physical inventory was overpriced by $2,200.
b. Footing and extension errors resulted in a $150 understatement of the physical inventory.
c. Direct labor included in the physical inventory amounted to $10,000. Overhead was included at the rate of 200% of direct labor. You determined that the amount of direct labor was correct and the overhead rate was proper.
d. The physical inventory included obsolete materials recorded at $250. During December, these materials were removed from the inventory account by a charge to cost of sales. Your audit also disclosed the following information about the December 31, 2007 inventory.
e. Total debits to certain accounts during December are:
______________________________December
Purchases .......................................$24,700
Direct labor .....................................12,100
Manufacturing overhead expense .......25,200
Cost of sales ...................................68,600
f. The cost of sales of $68,600 included direct labor of $13,800.
g. Normal scrap loss on established product lines is negligible. However, a special order started and completed during December had excessive scrap loss of $800, which was charged to Manufacturing Overhead Expense.
