The cutting department of Legacy Production Company started 40,000 units of specialized chairs during the month of March. The department incurred $15,000 in direct material costs; 2,500 direct labor hours paid at $10 per hour; and manufacturing overhead applied at 150% of direct labor cost. Legacy Production Company uses process costing to accumulate costs. NOTE: There was no beginning inventory in March.
Required (Excel Template downloadProvided): (Module Learning Outcomes LO5.1 through LO5.5 AND Course Learning Outcome #1 & #2)
Calculate the conversion costs incurred during the month of March (show your calculations).
Assume, that only 30,000 units were completed and transferred out. The remaining units left in ending inventroy are only 70% complete with respect to conversion costs. Direct materials are added at the beginning of the process. Prepare a Cutting Department cost production report for the month of March

A manual insertion process takes 30 minutes and 8 pounds of material to produce a product. Automating the insertion process requires 15 minutes of machine time and 7.5 pounds of material. The cost per labor hour is 12, the cost per machine hour is 8, and the cost per pound of materials is 10. b. With its original design, a gear requires 8 hours of setup time. By redesigning the gear so that the number of different grooves needed is reduced by 50%, the setup time is reduced by 75%. The cost per setup hour is 50. c. A product currently requires 6 moves. By redesigning the manufacturing layout, the number of moves can be reduced from 6 to 0. The cost per move is 20. d. Inspection time for a plant is 16,000 hours per year. The cost of inspection consists of salaries of 8 inspectors, totaling 320,000. Inspection also uses supplies costing 5 per inspection hour. The company eliminated most defective components by eliminating low-quality suppliers. The number of production errors was reduced dramatically by installing a system of statistical process control. Further quality improvements were realized by redesigning the products, making them easier to manufacture. The net effect was to achieve a close to zero-defect state and eliminate the need for any inspection activity. e. Each unit of a product requires 6 components. The average number of components is 6.5 due to component failure, requiring rework and extra components. Developing relations with the right suppliers and increasing the quality of the purchased component can reduce the average number of components to 6 components per unit. The cost per component is 500. f. A plant produces 100 different electronic products. Each product requires an average of 8 components that are purchased externally. The components are different for each part. By redesigning the products, it is possible to produce the 100 products so that they all have 4 components in common. This will reduce the demand for purchasing, receiving, and paying bills. Estimated savings from the reduced demand are 900,000 per year. 5-46 Type of Activity Management Refer to the information for Diviney Manufacturing on the previous page.
