Expert Answer

 

a.) determination of cost of each job.

Cost
LYNN [710 + 6,000 +78*(55)] $11,000
BRIAN [440 +7,000 +93* (55)] $12,555
MIKE [230 +4075 +48*(55)] $6,945

b.balance in service contracts in process account

=>$11,000.

(since Lynn’s is the only job incomplete, its cost will appear as service contracts in process account).

C.ending balance of operating overhead account.

$755.

balance in operating overhead account = actual overhead – applied overhead

here,

actual overhead = $12,800.

applied overhead = (78 + 93 +48 )*$55 =>$12,045……(total audit hours * hourly rate)

=> balance in operating overead account = $12,800 -$12,045.=>$755.
