(Appendix 4A) Overhead Application, Journal Entries, Job Cost At the beginning of the year, Smith Company budgeted overhead of 129,600 as well as 13,500 direct labor hours. During the year, Job K456 was completed with the following information: direct materials cost, 2,750; direct labor cost, 5,355. The average wage for Smith Company employees is 17 per hour. By the end of the year, 18,100 direct labor hours had actually been worked, and Smith incurred the following actual overhead costs for the year: Required: 1. Calculate the overhead rate for the year. 2. Calculate the total cost of Job K456. 3. Prepare the journal entries to record actual overhead and to apply overhead to production for the year. 4. Is overhead overapplied or underapplied? By how much? 5. Assuming that the normal cost of goods sold for the year is 635,600, what is the adjusted cost of goods sold?

Refer to Exercise 8.27. At the end of the year, Meliore, Inc., actually produced 310,000 units of the standard model and 115,000 of the deluxe model. The actual overhead costs incurred were: Required: Prepare a performance report for the period. In an attempt to improve budgeting, the controller for Meliore, Inc., has developed a flexible budget for overhead costs. Meliore, Inc., makes two types of products, the standard model and the deluxe model. Meliore expects to produce 300,000 units of the standard model and 120,000 units of the deluxe model during the coming year. The standard model requires 0.05 direct labor hour per unit, and the deluxe model requires 0.08. The controller has developed the following cost formulas for each of the four overhead items: Required: 1. Prepare an overhead budget for the expected activity level for the coming year. 2. Prepare an overhead budget that reflects production that is 10 percent higher than expected (for both products) and a budget for production that is 20 percent lower than expected.

Direct labor hours are estimated as 2,000 in Quarter 1; 2,100 in Quarter 2; 1,900 in Quarter 3; and 2,300 in Quarter 4. Prepare a manufacturing overhead budget using the information provided.
A company estimates its manufacturing overhead will be $750,000 for the next year. What is the predetermined overhead rate given the following independent allocation bases? Budgeted direct labor hours: 60,000 Budgeted direct labor expense: $1,500,000 Estimated machine hours: 100,000
Determining Budgeted Overhead The overhead application rate for a company is 10 per unit, made up of 6 per unit of fixed overhead and 4 per unit of variable overhead. Normal capacity is 10,000 units. In one month there was a favorable flexible budget variance of 2,500. Actual overhead for the month was 110,000 and actual units produced were 13,125. Based on this information, determine the amount of the budgeted overhead for the actual level of production.
