- 3. Fizen Lures Inc. manufactured fishing lures. Their most popular lure is a Bass plug which uses a hook purchased from another manufacturer and polystyrene for the body of the lure itself. The company uses highly automated injection molding machines to manufacture lures. Because of this direct labor cost are at a minimum because one machine operator can operate three injection molding machines at same time. The company has developed the following standard costs include scrap to manufacture each lure: Material standards: Hook: 1.1 Hooks per lure at $.10 per hook. Polystyrene plastic: 3.5 ounces per lure at $.25 per Labor standards: ounce. Direct labor: .005 hours to produce one lure at $23.50/hr. including all employer payroll taxes and benefits. During month of April the company manufactured 120,000 Bass lures and incurred the following costs: Material costs: Purchased 30,000 pounds (480,000 ounces) of polystyrene for a total cost of $144,000 dollars.
