Rene is working with the operations manager to determine what the standard labor cost is for a spice chest. He has watched the process from start to finish and taken detailed notes on what each employee does. The first employee selects and mills the wood, so it is smooth on all four sides. This takes the employee 1 hour for each chest. The next employee takes the wood and cuts it to the proper size. This takes 30 minutes. The next employee assembles and sands the chest. Assembly takes 2 hours. The chest then goes to the finishing department. It takes 1.5 hours to finish the chest. All employees are cross-trained so they are all paid the same amount per hour, $19.60. A. What are the standard hours per chest? Standard hour per chest hours B. What is the standard cost per chest for labor? Round your answer to two decimal places. Standard cost per chest

Simplifying the ABC System: DBC Electan Company produces two types of printers. The company uses ABC, and all activity driv-ers are duration drivers. Electan Company is considering using DBC and has gathered the fol-lowing data to help with its decision. Required: 1. Using cycle time and practical capacity for each product, calculate the total time for all pri-mary activities.Comment on the relationship to ABC. 2. Calculate the overhead rate that DBC uses to assign costs. Comment on the relationship toa unit-based plantwide overhead rate.3. Use the overhead rate calculated in Requirement 2 to calculate (a) the overhead cost perunit for each product, and (b) the total overhead assigned to each product. How does thiscompare to the ABC assignments shown in Part B of the Information set?4. What if the units actually produced were 10,000 for Printer A and 18,000 for Printer B.Using DBC, calculate the cost of unused capacity.
