Use ABC to allocate manufacturing overhead (Learning Objective 2)Several years after reengineering its production process, King Corporation hired a new controller, Christine Erickson . She developed an ABC system very similar to the one used by King's chief rival. Part of the reason Erickson developed the ABC system was because King's profits had been declining, even though the company had shifted its product mix toward the product that had appeared most profitable under the old system . Before adopting the new ABC system, the company had used a plantwide overhead rate, based on direct labor hours developed years ago .For the upcoming year, King's budgeted ABC manufacturing overhead allocation rates are as follows :ActivityMaterials handling ..........................

- I have the following information: direct materials $250 and total manufacturing cost $700. Overhead applied to jobs at a rate of 200% of direct labor cost. This is for Chapter 2 job costing in managerial accounting. I am supposed to figure out conversion cost, direct labor cost, and manufacturing overhead. I know the formula for conversion cost= direct labor + manufacturing OH Prime cost= direct labor + direct materials How do I figure out direct labor cost with the given information?

- E4-23A Use ABC to allocate manufacturing overhead (Learning Objective 2) Several years after reengineering its production process, Biltmore Corporation hired a new controller, Rachael Johnson. She developed an ABC system very similar to the one used by Biltmore’s chief rival, Westriver. Part of the reason Johnson developed the ABC system was because Biltmore’s profits had been declining even though the company had shifted its product mix toward the product that had appeared most profitable under the old system. Before adopting the new ABC system, Biltmore had used a plantwide overhead rate based on direct labor hours that was developed years ago. For the upcoming year, Biltmore’s budgeted ABC manufacturing overhead allocation rates are as follows: Activity Allocation Base Activity Cost Allocation Rate Materials handling # of parts $3.84 per part Machine setup # of setups $330.00 per setup Insertion of parts # of parts $30.00 per part Finishing Finishing DL hrs $54.00 per hour The…arrow_forwardA job order costing system that would best fit the needs of a company that makes: a.

- Job costing; variation on actual, normal, and variation from normal costing. Creative Solutions designs Web pages for clients in the education sector. The company’s job-costing system has a single direct cost category (Web-designing labor) and a single indirect cost pool composed of all overhead costs. Overhead costs are allocated to individual jobs based on direct labor-hours. The company employs six Web designers. Budgeted and actual information regarding Creative Solutions follows:arrow_forwardActivity-based costing. The job-costing system at Melody’s Custom Framing has ve indirect cost pools (purchasing, material handling, machine maintenance, product inspection, and packaging). The company is in the process of bidding on two jobs: Job 220, an order of 17 intricate personalized frames, and Job 330, an order of 5 standard personalized frames. The controller wants you to compare overhead allocated under the current simple job-costing system and a newly designed activity-based job-costing system. Total budgeted costs in each indirect-cost pool and the budgeted quantity of activity driver are as follows.arrow_forwardStage 1 ABC For Machine Shop: Assigning Costs to Activity As the chief engineer of a small fabrication shop, Brenda Tolliver refers to herself as a "jack-of-all-trades."When an order for a new product comes in, Brenda must do the following: Design the product to meet customer requirements. Prepare a bill of materials (a list of materials required to produce the product). Prepare an operations list (a sequential list of the steps involved in manufacturing the product). Each time the foundry manufactures a batch of the product, Brenda must perform these activities: Schedule the job. Supervise the setup of machines that will work on the job. Inspect the first unit produced to verify that it meets specifications. Brenda supervises the production employees who perform the actual work on individual units of product. She is also responsible for employee training, ensuring that production facilities are in proper operating condition, and attending professional meetings. Brenda's estimates…arrow_forward

Then, give an example of a firm that would use process costing.arrow_forwardCMA-ADAPTED ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE While attending night school to earn a degree in computer engineering, Stan Wilson worked for Morlot Container Company (MCC) as an assembly line supervisor. MCC was located near Wilsons hometown and had been a prominent employer in the area for many years. MCCs main product was milk cartons that were distributed throughout the Midwest for milk-processing plants. The technology at MCC was stable, and the assembly lines were monitored closely. MCC employed a standard cost system because cost control was considered important. The employees who manned the assembly lines were generally unskilled workers who had been with the company for many years; the majority of these workers belonged to the local union. Wilson was glad he was nearly finished with school because he found the work at MCC to be repetitive and boring, even as a supervisor. The supervisors were monitored almost as closely as the line workers, and standard policies and procedures existed that applied to most situations. Most of MCCs management had been with the company for several years and believed in clear lines of authority and well-defined responsibilities. Whereas he knew he had performed well against the companys standards, Wilson also knew that there probably would be little opportunity for advancement or significant compensation increases. After receiving his degree, Wilson went to work in the research and development department of Alden Computers, a five-year-old company specializing in educational computer systems for elementary schools. The company was customer-oriented and willing to tailor its computer systems to the needs of the end users. The customization of its systems, combined with continual changes in technology, resulted in a job shop orientation in the companys production facility. The employees who assembled Aldens systems were skilled technicians who worked closely with the engineering staff. Wilson was gratified by the respect and authority his newly acquired knowledge and skills afforded him at Alden. If changes were required in his area of expertise, Wilson often made recommendations about how the work should proceed and was involved in decisions on new product development. The companys management team frequently rolled up its sleeves and worked alongside the technicians when production problems arose; the lines of authority were sometimes difficult to distinguish, and decisions were often made by the expert on the spot. Wilson believed that his skills were appreciated at Alden and he would be fairly compensated for his professional expertise. Required a. MCC and Alden Computers represent two different types of organizational structures. In terms of each of the following points, explain how MCC differs from Alden Computers. 1. General organizational structure and climate 2. Bases of authority 3. Evaluation criteria 4. Bases of compensation b. Both structures have potential benefits or can create problems. Discuss the features of the structure used by 1. Alden Computers that might benefit MCC. 2. Alden that might create problems for Alden. 3. MCC that might benefit Alden Computers.arrow_forward
