Question - Topsound Sdn Bhd makes car audio players using latest automated technology. The company uses a job-order costing system and applies manufacturing overhead cost to products on the basis of machine hours. The following estimates were used in preparing the predetermined overhead rate at the beginning of the year:
Machine hours 37,500
Manufacturing overhead cost RM450,000
During the year 2020, a surplus of audio players on the market resulted in cutting back production and a build-up of audio players in the company's warehouse. The company's cost records revealed the following actual cost and operating data for the year:
Machine hours 30,000
Manufacturing overhead cost RM425,000
Inventories at year-end:
