PROBLEM 2 (HIGHLIGHT YOUR ANSWER)


You are engaged in an audit of the Roche Mfg. Company for the year ended December 31, 2019. To reduce the
workload at year end, the company took its annual physical inventory under your observation on November 30, 2019.
The company’s inventory account, which includes raw materials and work in process, is on a perpetual basis, and it uses
the FIFO method of pricing. It has no finished goods inventory. The company’s physical inventory revealed that the book
inventory of P 60,570 was understated by P 3,000. To avoid distorting the interim financial statements, the company
decided not to adjust the book inventory until year-end except for obsolete inventory items. Your audit revealed this
information about the November 30 inventory:

a. Pricing tests showed that the physical inventory was overpriced by P 2,200.
b. Footing and extension errors resulted in a P150 understatement of the physical inventory.
c. Direct labor included in the physical inventory amounted to P10, 000. Overhead was included at the rate of 200
% of direct labor. You determined that the amount for direct labor was correct and the overhead rate was proper.
d. The physical inventory included obsolete materials recorded at P250. During December, these materials were
removed from the inventory account by a charge to cost of sales.

Your audit also discloses the following information about the December 31, 2019 inventory.
a. Total debits to certain accounts during December are

Purchases P24,700
Direct Labor 12,100
Manufacturing overhead expense 25,200
Cost of Sales 68,600

f. The cost of sales of P68, 600 included direct labor of P13,800.


g. Normal scrap loss on established product lines is negligible. However, a special order started and completed
during December had excessive scrap loss of P800, which was charged to Manufacturing Overhead Expense.

a. P63,720 c. P61,520
b. P61,270 d. P63,570
