Prepare a predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor hours, direct labor cost, andmachine hours.b. Why might Pyramid Company prefer to use machine hours to allocate manufacturing overhead?c. Using each of the predetermined overhead rates calculated in part a and the data that follows forjob 128, determine the cost of job128.Direct materials $6,000Direct labor $4,000 (200 hours at $15 per hour) + (100 hours at $10 per hour)Machine time 700 hours
Question No.4
The Jewell plant has two categories of overhead: maintenance and inspection. Costs expected for these categories for the coming year are as follows:
Maintenance Rs.360,000
Inspection 750,000
The plant currently applies overhead using direct labor hours and expected capacity of 100,000 direct labor hours. The following data has been assembled for use in developing a bid for a proposed job. Bid prices are calculated as full manufacturing cost plus a 20% mark-up.
Direct materials Rs.2,100
Direct labor 5,625
Machine hours 450
Number of inspections 4
Direct labor hours 550
Total expected machine hours for all jobs during the year are 60,000, and the total expected number of inspections is 4,000.
Required:
A: Compute the total cost of the potential job using direct labor hours to assign overhead.
Determine the bid price for the potential job.
B: Compute the total cost of the job using…

In 2019, actual variable manufacturing overhead is $280,000. FCA's simple costing system allocates variable manufacturing overhead to its three customers based on machine-hours and prices its contracts based on full costs. One of its customers has regularly complained of being charged noncompetitive prices, so FCA's controller Matthias Hodge realizes that it is time to examine the consumption of overhead resources more closely. He knows that there are three main departments that consume overhead resources: design, production, and engineering.

The owner has provided you with the following information for next year's plans: Each color on the banner must be printed one at a time. Thus, for example, a four-color banner will need to be run through the printing operation four separate times. The total production volume last year was 600 banners, as shown below. The four-color banner is a new product offering for the upcoming year. The owner believes that the expected 600-unit increase in volume from last year means that direct labor expenses should increase by 100% (600 + 600).
