Question
An accountant is using the repeated distribution method to reapportion service department costs. The following table shows the work she has done so far. Figures that are yet to be calculated are shown as “???”.Production department 1 Production department 2 Service department X Service department Y
$ $ $ $
Apportioned and allocated
production overheads 60,000 80,000 20,000 10,000
Service department X 8,000 10,000 –20,000 2,000
Service department Y 7,200 4,200 600 12,000
Service department X ??? ??? -600 0
Total production overhead ??? ??? 0 0
10. What is the total production overhead for production department 1 after the remaining reapportionment of the overheads of service department X (to the nearest $)? (Answer in $)Please do not type out a full question and expect to be provided with a full answer. You must have an answer in the same book in which you found the question so ask about whatever it is in the answer that you do not understand and then I will explain.
Have you watched my free lectures on the reapportionment of overheads, where the approach is explained in detail with examples?
