Question:
Assume the same facts as in Problem 19-33 except now there are only two trigger points: the completion of good finished units of product and the sale of finished goods.
Required
1. Prepare summary journal entries for August, including the disposition of under- or overallocated conversion costs. Assume no direct materials variances.
2. Post the entries in requirement 1 to T-accounts for Finished Goods Control, Conversion Costs Control, Conversion Costs Allocated, and Cost of Goods Sold.
Data From Problem 19-33:
Assume that the second trigger point for Acton Corporation is the sale-rather than the completion-of finished goods. Also, the inventory account is confined solely to direct materials, whether these materials are in a storeroom, in work in process, or in finished goods. No conversion costs are inventoried. They are allocated to the units sold at standard costs. Any under- or overallocated conversion costs are written off monthly to Cost of Goods Sold.
