Solution
Answer for question no.1:
Total compensation for the week is as follows:
Regular hours worked =160*$20 =$3,200.
Over time paid = 20 hours*1.5 *$20
=$600.
Total compensation paid=$3,200+$600 =$3,800
Answer for question no.2:
Training of employees is to be charged as salary expense, since it is administrative cost by
nature,
Overtime spent due to customer rush order is to be charged to the order on which the time is
spent, hence it is to be charged to Work in progress.

Overtime spent due to scheduling error is to be charged as manufacturing overhead, since it
cannot be allocated to any particular job.
Basing on the above justification following is the bifurcation of the wages:
Answer to question no.3:
Hans weekly payroll =$3,500.
Paid time off = 4 weeks.
Total number of weeks in a year=12*4 =48 weeks.
PTO per month =(4/48)*4 =0.3333 weeks
Average weekly pay roll =$3,500.
Therefore amount to be accrued =$3,500 *0.33333
