Journal Entries, Closing Manufacturing Overhead, and Preparing an Income Statement. Jansen, Inc., is a defense contractor that uses job costing.

1. Raw materials were purchased for $300,000 on account.
2. Raw materials totaling $420,000 were placed in production, $60,000 for indirect materials and $360,000 for direct materials.
