Accounting

Pronghorn, a coffee-mug producer, generally conducts over half of its business in the last month of the calendar year due to holiday
sales. By the end of December, its fiscal year-end, Pronghorn had accumulated Cost of Goods Sold in the amount of $255,000.
Pronghorn's business model is to maintain minimal WIP Inventory and FG Inventory, so these two accounts had balances of just
$20,000 and $26,000, respectively, on December 31. Pronghorn does hold a fair amount of RM Inventory, however, so it will be able to
quickly fulfill its orders. As a result, its December 31 RM Inventory (all direct materials) is $90,000.
Pronghorn utilizes a normal costing system, in its effort to have timely applied MOH information for each custom job, and its budgeted
MOH rate is $2.25? direct labor hour. Budgeted MOH at the beginning of the year was $160,000; actual MOH costs incurred by the
end of the year were $170,000. Actual direct labor hours used were 71,000.
