Q

Predetermined overhead rates 4 steps :

A

Step 1: Estimate the total amount of the allocation base (the denominator) Step 2: Estimate the total fixed manufacturing overhead cost for the coming period and the variable manufacturing overhead cost per unit of the allocation base. Step 3: Use the cost formula (Y = a + bX) to estimate the total manufacturing overhead cost for the coming period. (the numerator) Step 4: Compute the predetermined overhead rate by diving the numerator by the monitor.

Q

The management of Blue Ocean Company estimates that 50,000 machine-hours will be required to support the production planned for the year. It also estimates $300,000 of total fixed manufacturing overhead cost for the coming year and $4 of variable manufacturing overhead cost per machine-hour. What is the predetermined overhead rate?

A

$10.00 per machine hour. (Y = a + bX) a= $300,000 b= $4 X = 50,000 Y= 300,000 + 4(50,000) = 500,000 Estimated total manufacturing overhead cost / estimated total amount of the allocation base. 500,000 / 50,000 = 10

Q

Spartan Corporation estimates that it will incur $200,000 of total manufacturing overhead cost at an estimated activity level of 10,000 direct labor-hours. What is the amount of manufacturing overhead that would be applied to a job that required 200 direct labor-hours?

A

$4,000 Predetermined overhead rate = $200,000 ÷ 10,000 DLHs = $20 per DLH For 200 DLHs, the manufacturing overhead that would be applied is = $20 per DLH × 200 DLHs = $4,000

Q

Wilson Products uses a plantwide predetermined overhead rate of $10 per direct labor-hour. Direct material and direct labor associated with Job X23 are $4,000 and $1,200 respectively. If Job X23 used 100 direct labor-hours, what is the total cost assigned to this job?

A

$6,200 Total cost associated with the job = Direct material + Direct labor + Manufacturing overhead applied Total cost associated with the job = $4,000 + $1,200 + ($10 × 100 DLHs) = $6,200

Q

Wilson Products uses a plantwide predetermined overhead rate of $10 per direct labor-hour. Direct material and direct labor associated with Job X23 are $4,000 and $1,200 respectively. If Job X23 used 100 direct labor-hours to produce 50 audio controllers, what is this job’s unit product cost (per audio controller)?

A

$124 total cost assigned / units = unit product cost (per audio controller). 6,200 / 50 = 124

A

overhead applied to the job.

39
Q
A

$4000

Explanation:

The predetermined overhead rate = $100,000/5,000 direct labor hours = $20 per direct labor hour. The overhead applied to the job = $20 per direct labor hours x 200 direct labor hours = $4000

40
Q

Estimated manufacturing overhead = 450,000

Estimated direct labor hours = 150,000

Actual manufacturing overhead = $405,000

Actual direct labor hours = 180,000

Based on this information, the amount of overhead allocated to a job that used 300 direct labor hours is $______.

A

$450,000 / 150,000 = $3.00 per direct labor hour x 300 = $900.
