1. Which of the following manufacturers is most likely to use a process cost system?
Purse manufacturer
Sports drink manufacturer
Automobile manufacturer
Guitar manufacturer
2. Process and job order cost systems are similar in that both systems _______.
record and summarize product costs
classify product costs as direct materials, direct labor, and factory overhead
allocate factory overhead costs to products
All of these choices are correct.
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? The learning objective states calcualte predetermined overhead rate, but I do not have estimated manufacturing cost and estimated labor. Can you please help?
Thanks,
Erica Gordon

- In a team of two or three students, interview the manager/owner of a local business. In this interview, ask the manager/owner the following questions: A. Does the business collect and use cost information to make decisions? B. Does it have a specialist in cost estimation who works with this cost data? If not, who is responsible for the collection of cost information? Be as specific as possible. C. What type of cost information does the business collect and how is each type of information used? D. How important does the owner/manager believe cost information is to the success of the business? Then, write a report to the instructor summarizing the results of the interview. Content of the memo must include date of the interview, the name and title of the person interviewed, name and location of the business, type of business (service, merchandising, manufacturing) and brief description of the goods/services provided by the business, and responses to questions A-D.arrow_forwardCost Identification Following is a list of cost terms described in the chapter as well as a list of brief descriptive settings for each item. Cost terms: a. Opportunity cost b. Period cost c. Product cost d. Direct labor cost e. Selling cost f. Conversion cost g. Prime cost h. Direct materials cost i. Manufacturing overhead cost j. Administrative cost Settings: 1. Marcus Armstrong, manager of Timmins Optical, estimated that the cost of plastic, wages of the technician producing the lenses, and overhead totaled 30 per pair of single-vision lenses. 2. Linda was having a hard time deciding whether to return to school. She was concerned about the salary she would have to give up for the next 4 years. 3. Randy Harris is the finished goods warehouse manager for a medium-sized manufacturing firm. He is paid a salary of 90,000 per year. As he studied the financial statements prepared by the local certified public accounting firm, he wondered how his salary was treated. 4. Jamie Young is in charge of the legal department at company headquarters. Her salary is 95,000 per year. She reports to the chief executive officer. 5. All factory costs that are not classified as direct materials or direct labor. 6. The new product required machining, assembly, and painting. The design engineer asked the accounting department to estimate the labor cost of each of the three operations. The engineer supplied the estimated labor hours for each operation. 7. After obtaining the estimate of direct labor cost, the design engineer estimated the cost of the materials that would be used for the new product. 8. The design engineer totaled the costs of materials and direct labor for the new product. 9. The design engineer also estimated the cost of converting the raw materials into their final form. 10. The auditor for a soft drink bottling plant pointed out that the depreciation on the delivery trucks had been incorrectly assigned to product cost (through overhead). Accordingly, the depreciation charge was reallocated on the income statement. Required: Match the cost terms with the settings. More than one cost classification may be associated with each setting; however, select the setting that seems to fit the item best. When you are done, each cost term will be used just once.arrow_forwardWhat type of cost accounting system would be most appropriate to be used by a graduation invitation printing company?

- 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_forwardThe accompanying figures depict a number of cost behavior patterns that might be found in a company's cost structure. The vertical axis on each graph represents total cost, and the horizontal axis on each graph represents level of activity (volume). For each of the given situations, identify the graph that illustrates the cost pattern involved. Any graph may be used more than once. (Adapted originally from the CPA exam; also found in R.H. Garrison and E.W. Noreen, Managerial Acco11111ing, 9th edition, Irwin, 2009.)(a) Electricity bill-a flat-rate fixed charge plus a variable cost after a certainnumber of kilowatt-hours are used.(b) City water bill, which is computed as follows:First 1,000,000 gallons $1,000 flat, or lessNext 10,000 gallons $0.003 per gallon usedNext 10,000 gallons $0.006 per gallon usedNext 10,000 gallons $0.009 per gallon used(c) Depreciation of equipment, where the amount is computed…arrow_forwardThe activity-based costing (ABC) system has been used by manufacturing companies for a long period of time. Recently, the ABC system has been used by banks, insurance companies, not-for-profit organizations, government agencies, and service companies. Assume that you were hired as a cost accountant to develop a plan to implement the ABC system for one of these service organizations. Create an ABC system development plan, including detailed steps needed to effectively implement the system. Then present the plan in the discussion. Response should include: A brief background on the organization's main activities. Whether there will be any limitation on implementing the ABC system in the organization selected.arrow_forward
