Explanation:

Direct labour= (D/L)

Direct material = (D/M)

Factory overhead =( FOH)

Raw material used = material (open) +purchased -material (end)

                               = 30000+194000-56000

                              = 168000.

Entry:  Dr work in process  168000

                   Cr raw material          168000

Manufacturing cost = Raw material used + direct labor cost + factory overhead.

                        = 168000+100000+(16000+23000+100000) = $407000.

COGM= Manufacturing cost+work in process (open)-work in process (end)

          = 407000+9900 - 20100 = $396800.

Applied factory overhead= direct labor * predetermined rate

                                          = 100000*55% = $55000.

entry: Dr  work in process  55000

               Cr Applied factory overhead   55000.

Cost of goods sold = Cost of goods manufactured + finished goods (open) -finished goods (end).

                             = 396800+59000-33700 =$422100.

Actual factory overhead = $139000

Applied factory overhead =$55000

Under applied factory overhead = 84000.

Sales =                                                                                             1000000

Less cost of goods sold =                                                             (422100)

Gross profit                                                                                    577900

a progressive tax is a tax that imposes a lower tax rate on low-income earners compared to those with a higher income, making it based on the taxpayer's ability to pay. that means it takes a bigger percentage from high income earners than it does from low income people.
