Caseys Kitchens makes two types of food smokers: Gas and Electric. The company expects to manufacture 20,000 units of Gas smokers, which have a per-unit direct material cost of $15 and a per-unit direct labor cost of $25. k also expects to manufacture 50,000 units of Electric smokers, which have a per-unit material cost of $20 and a per-unit direct labor cost of $45. Historically, it has used the traditional allocation method and applied overhead at a rate of $125 per machine hour. It was determined that there were three cost pools, and the overhead for each cost pool is as follows: The cost driver for each cost pool and its expected activity is as follows: A. What is the per-unit cost for each product under the traditional allocation method? B. What is the per-unit cost for each product under ABC costing? C. Compared to ABC costing, was each products overhead under- or over applied? D. How much was overhead under- or over applied for each product?
Multiple production department factory overhead rates The management of Spotted Cow Dairy Company, described in Problem 1B, now plans to use the multiple production department factory overhead rate method. The total factory overhead associated with each department is as follows: Instructions Determine the multiple production department factory overhead rates, using machine hours for the Blending Department and direct labor hours for the Packing Department. Determine the product factory overhead costs, using the multiple production department rates in (1).
PREDETERMINED FACTORY OVERHEAD RATE Marston Enterprises calculates a predetermined factory overhead rate so that factory overhead may be applied to production during the month. It calculates the overhead using three different methods and then decides which one to use. Total estimated factory overhead costs are 600,000. Total estimated direct labor hours are 30,000. Total estimated direct labor costs are 1,200,000. Total machine hours are estimated to be 200,000. Calculate the predetermined overhead application rates based on (1) direct labor hours, (2) direct labor costs, and (3) machine hours.
Overhead application rate Roll Tide Manufacturing Inc. uses a job order cost system and standard costs. It manufactures one product, whose standard cost follows: The standards are based on normal capacity of 2,700 direct labor hours. Actual activity for March follows: Required: 1. Compute the variable and fixed factory overhead rates per unit. 2. Compute the variable and fixed overhead rates per direct labor hour. 3. Determine the total fixed factory overhead based on normal capacity.
PREDETERMINED FACTORY OVERHEAD RATE Millerlile Enterprises calculates a predetermined factory overhead rate so that factory overhead may be applied to production during the month. It calculates the overhead using three different methods and then decides which one to use. Total estimated factory overhead costs are 540,000. Total estimated direct labor hours are 50,000. Total estimated direct labor costs are 900,000. Total machine hours are estimated to be 80,000. Calculate the predetermined overhead application rates based on (1) direct labor hours, (2) direct labor costs, and (3) machine hours.
Wrappers Tape makes two products: Simple and Removable. It estimates it will produce 369,991 units of Simple and 146,100 of Removable, and the overhead for each of its cost pools is as follows: It has also estimated the activities for each cost driver as follows: Â How much is the overhead allocated to each unit of Simple and Removable?
TyeDye Lights makes two products: Party and Holiday. It takes 80,900 direct labor hours to manufacture the Party Line and 93,500 direct labor hours to manufacture the Holiday Line. Overhead consists of $225,000 in the machine setup cost pool and $149,960 in the packaging cost pool. The machine setup pool has 52,000 setups for the Party product and 98,000 setups for the Holiday product. The packaging cost pool has 26,000 parts in the Party product and 39,200 parts for the Holiday product. Using the traditional cost method of direct labor hours, what is the predetermined overhead rate? A. $1.50 per direct labor hour B. $2.15 per direct labor hour C. $2.30 per direct labor hour D. $3.80 per direct labor hour
Activity-based costing and product cost distortion The management of Four Finger Appliance Company in Exercise 14 has asked you to use activity-based costing instead of direct labor hours to allocate factory overhead costs to the two products. You have determined that 81,000 of factory overhead from each of the production departments can be associated with setup activity (162,000 in total). Company records indicate that blenders required 135 setups, while the toaster ovens required only 45 setups. Each product has a production volume of 7,500 units. Determine the three activity rates (assembly, test and pack, and setup). Determine the total factory overhead and factory overhead per unit allocated to each product using the activity rates in (A).
Use the following information for Exercises 9-63 and 9-64: Palladium Inc. produces a variety of household cleaning products. Palladiums controller has developed standard costs for the following four overhead items: Next year, Palladium expects production to require 90,000 direct labor hours. Exercise 9-64 Performance Report Based on Actual Production Refer to the information for Palladium Inc. above. Assume that actual production required 93,000 direct labor hours at standard. The actual overhead costs incurred were as follows: Required: Prepare a performance report for the period based on actual production.
Lampierre makes brass and gold frames. The company computed this information to decide whether to switch from the traditional allocation method to ABC: The estimated overhead for the material cost pool is estimated as $12,500, and the estimate for the machine setup pool is $35,000. Calculate the allocation rate per unit of brass and per unit of gold using: A. The traditional allocation method B. The activity-based costing method
Christmas Timber, Inc., produces Christmas trees. The trees are produced through a cutting and pruning process. Machine maintenance and janitorial labors are performed throughout the production process by nonproduction employees. Maintenance and janitorial costs are allocated based on machine hours used and the number of trees in each department, respectively. The company estimates that the cutting and pruning areas typically have about 20 and 60 trees, respectively, in them at one time. The company also estimates that the cutting process requires about 9 times as many machine hours as the pruning process. The total costs of each department are as follows: Using the direct method of support department cost allocation, determine the total cost of each production department after allocating all support costs to the production departments.
Customs makes two types of hats: polyester (poly) and silk. There are two cost pools: setup, with an estimated $100,000 in overhead, and inspection, with $25,000 in overhead. Poly is estimated to have 750,000 setups and 170,000 inspections, while silk has 250,000 setups and 80,000 inspections. How much overhead is applied to each product?
