However, Ross Clarkson, the company’s controller, and Catherine Harper, the cost
Accountant, were able to recover a small part of manufacturing cost data for the current
Month.
“What a horrible experience,” sighed Ross. “And the worst part is that we may not
have enough records to use in filing an insurance claim.”
“It was terrible,” replied Catherine. “However, I managed to recover some of the
manufacturing cost data that I was working on yesterday afternoon. The data indicate
that our direct labor cost in July totaled $240,000 and that we had purchased $345,000
of raw materials. Also, I recall that the amount of raw materials used for July was
$350,000. But I’m not sure this information will help. The rest of our records are blown
away.”
“Well, not exactly,” said Ross. “I was working on the year-to-date income statement
when the tornado warning was announced. My recollection is that our sales in July were
$1,260,000 and our gross profit ratio has been 40% of sales. Also, I can remember that our
cost of goods available for sale was $770,000 for July.”
“Maybe we can work something out from this information!” exclaimed Catherine.
“My experience tells me that our manufacturing overhead is usually 60% of direct
labor.”
“Hey, look what I just found,” cried Catherine. “It’s a copy of this June’s balance sheet,
and it shows that our inventories as of June 30 are Finished goods $38,000, Work in
process $25,000, and Raw materials $19,000.”
“Super,” yelled Ross. “Let’s go work something out.”

Let's get rid of the guff which I have done for you, no I can't help you with dividing the class but if you get together as team you should be able to do something with the raw data using your basic knowledge of accounting
