 Design, Inc., is a web site design and consulting firm.  The firm uses a job order costing    
system, in which each client is a different job.  Widget Design traces direct labor, licensing costs,    
and travel costs directly to each job.  It allocates indirect costs to jobs based on a predetermined    
indirect cost allocation rate, computed as a percentage of direct labor costs.      
                     
  At the beginning of 2011, managing partner Judi Johnson prepared the following budget:    
  Direct Labor Hours   10,000 hours          
  Direct Labor Costs    $ 1,400,000            
  Support Staff Salaries  $    170,000            
  Computer Leases    $      49,000            
  Office Supplies    $      29,000            
  Office Rent    $      60,000            
                     
                     
                     
  In November 2011, Widget Design served several clients.  Records for two clients appear here:    
          Dining Coop Root Chocolates    
  Direct labor hours     740 hours   65 hours    
  Software licensing costs    $    2,100    $        300
