- Primera Company produces two products and uses a predetermined overhead rate to apply overhead. Primera currently applies overhead using a plantwide rate based on direct labor hours. Consideration is being given to the use of departmental overhead rates where overhead would be applied on the basis of direct labor hours in Department 1 and on the basis of machine hours in Department 2. At the beginning of the year, the following estimates are provided: Actual results reported by department and product during the year are as follows: Required: 1. Compute the plantwide predetermined overhead rate and calculate the overhead assigned to each product. 2. Calculate the predetermined departmental overhead rates and calculate the overhead assigned to each product. 3. Using departmental rates, compute the applied overhead for the year.

- Determining job costcalculation of predetermined rate for applying overhead by direct labor cost and direct labor hour methods Beemer Products Inc. has its factory divided into three departments, with individual factory overhead rates for each department. In each department, all the operations are sufficiently alike for the department to be regarded as a cost center. The estimated monthly factory overhead for the departments is as follows: Forming, 64,000; Shaping, 36,000; and Finishing, 10,080. The estimated production data include the following: The job cost ledger shows the following data for X6, which was completed during the month: Required: Determine the cost of X6. Assume that the factory overhead is applied to production orders, based on the following: 1. Direct labor cost 2. Direct labor hours (Hint: You must first determine overhead rates for each department, rounding rates to the nearest cent.)arrow_forwardA companys Individual job sheets show these costs: Overhead is applied at 1.25 times the direct labor cost.
