Answer:

Explanation:

The journal entry that would include is shown below:

Work in Progress inventory A/c Dr           $125,000

Factory overhead A/c   Dr                         $24,000

(Being labor cost is recorded)

The computation is shown below:

Work in progress = Labor expenses + whole labor expenses

                             =$88,000 + $37,000

                             = $125,000

The labor expenses are directly related to the product which means it is a direct cost

And, the whole labor expense is considered to be the overhead cost as it is not directly related to the product

And, the $24,000 is also considered as an overhead cost because it is used in both the departments so it is come under the factory overhead account
