Use the following information for Brief Exercises 4-34 and 4-35: Sanjay Company manufactures a product in a factory that has two producing departments, Assembly and Painting, and two support departments, S1 and S2. The activity driver for S1 is square footage, and the activity driver for S2 is number of machine hours. The following data pertain to Sanjay: Brief Exercises 4-34 (Appendix 4B) Assigning Support Department Costs by Using the Direct Method Refer to the information for Sanjay Company above. Required: 1. Calculate the cost assignment ratios to be used under the direct method for Departments S1 and S2. (Note: Each support department will have two ratiosone for Assembly and the other for Painting.) 2. Allocate the support department costs to the producing departments by using the direct method.
Roberts Company produces two weed eaters: basic and advanced. The company has four activities: machining, engineering, receiving, and inspection. Information on these activities and their drivers is given below. Overhead costs: Required: 1. Calculate the four activity rates. 2. Calculate the unit costs using activity rates. Also, calculate the overhead cost per unit. 3. What if consumption ratios instead of activity rates were used to assign costs instead of activity rates? Show the cost assignment for the inspection activity.
Journalizing the distribution of service department costs to production departments Required: Using your solution to P4-7, prepare journal entries for the following: The distribution of the total factory overhead of $79,400 to the individual production and service departments where it originated. The distribution of the Building Maintenance overhead to the appropriate other departments. The distribution of the Factory Office overhead to the appropriate other departments.
Using the data in P4-2 and Microsoft Excel: 1. Separate the variable and fixed elements. 2. Determine the cost to be charged to the product for the year. 3. Determine the cost to be charged to factory overhead for the year. 4. Determine the plotted data points using Chart Wizard. 5. Determine R2. 6. How do these solutions compare to the solutions in P4-2 and P4-3? 7. What does R2 tell you about this cost model?
Medical Tape makes two products: Generic and Label. It estimates it will produce 423,694 units of Generic and 652,200 of Label, and the overhead for each of its cost pools is as follows: It has also estimated the activities for each cost driver as follows: How much is the overhead allocated to each unit of Generic and Label?
FIFO Method, Single Department Analysis, One Cost Category Refer to the data in Problem 6.33. Required: Prepare a cost of production report for the Fabrication Department for December using the FIFO method of costing.
(Appendix 3A) Separating Fixed and Variable Costs, Service Setting Louise McDermott, controller for the Galvin plant of Veromar Inc., wanted to determine the cost behavior of moving materials throughout the plant. She accumulated the following data on the number of moves (from 100 to 800 in increments of 100) and the total cost of moving materials at those levels of moves: Required: 1. Prepare a scattergraph based on these data. Use cost for the vertical axis and number of moves for the horizontal axis. Based on an examination of the scattergraph, does there appear to be a linear relationship between the total cost of moving materials and the number of moves? 2. Compute the cost formula for moving materials by using the high-low method. Calculate the predicted cost for a month with 550 moves by using the high-low formula. (Note: Round the answer for the variable rate to three decimal places and the answer for total fixed cost and total cost to the nearest dollar.) 3. CONCEPTUAL CONNECTION Compute the cost formula for moving materials using the method of least squares. (Note: For the method of least squares, round the variable rate to two decimal places and total fixed cost and total cost to the nearest dollar.) Using the regression cost formula, what is the predicted cost for a month with 550 moves? What does the coefficient of determination tell you about the cost formula computed by regression? 4. CONCEPTUAL CONNECTION Evaluate the cost formula using the least squares coefficients. Could it be improved? Try dropping the third data point (300, 3,400), and rerun the regression.

Computing and using activity-based costing overhead allocation rates Koehler (see Exercise E19-15 and Exercise E19-16) makes handheld calculators in two models—basic and professional—and wants to further refine its costing system by allocating overhead using activity-based costing. The estimated $721,000 of manufacturing overhead has been divided into three primary activities: Materials Handling, Machine Setup, and Insertion of Parts. The following data have been compiled: Requirement 1 Koehler expects to produce 200,000 basic models and 200,000 professional models. Compute the predetermined overhead allocation rates using activity-based costing. How much overhead is allocated to the basic model? To the professional model? Requirement 2 Compare your answers for Exercise E19-15, Exercise E19-16, and Exercise E19-17. What conclusions can you draw? Note: Short Exercise S19-15 and ES19-16 must be completed before attempting Short Exercise 519-17.

Levels of cost drivers. Each of the following is a potential activity driver. Identify the most likely level of each driver with U for a unit-level driver, B for a batch-level diver and P for a product-level driver. Loads of materials moved Materials cost Pounds of finished product produced Shipments to customers (where no finished goods inventory is maintained Number of part numbers used Machine hours Purchase orders issued (where large materials inventories are maintained Direct costs Pieces inspected (where output is 100% inspected) Pieces inspected (where only the first piece is inspected after each setup)
