    Answer and Explanation:

    1. The computation of overhead rate based on direct labor cost is shown below:-

    Overhead rate = Overhead applied * 100 : Direct labor cost

    = 888 * 100 : 1,200

    = 74%

    2. The Preparation of job-order cost sheet for the four jobs is shown below:

    Particulars Job 86 Job 87 Job 88 Job 89

    Beginning balance $6,888 $6,820

    Direct materials $3,000 $7,000 $2,100 $1,500

    Direct labor $800 $6,000 $900 $500

    Applied overhead

    is 74% of direct labor $592 $4,440 $666 $370

    Total $11,280 $24,260 $3,666 $2,370

    3. The computation of ending balances of Work in Process and Finished Goods is shown below:-

    Work in process of Job 88 = $3,666

    Finished goods = Total of Job 86 + Total of Job 89

    = $11,280 + $2,370

    = $13,650

    4. The computation of the Cost of Goods Sold for March is shown below:-
