Concept explainers
Sweeten Company had no jobs in progress at the beginning of the year and no beginning inventories. It started, completed, and sold only two jobs during the year—Job P and Job Q. The company uses a plantwide predetermined
Because Sweeten has two manufacturing departments—Molding and Fabrication—it is considering replacing its plantwide overhead rate with departmental rates that would also be based on machine-hours. The company gathered the following additional information to enable calculating departmental overhead rates:
Molding | Fabrication | Total | |
---|---|---|---|
Estimated total machine-hours used | 2,500 | 1,500 | 4,000 |
Estimated total fixed manufacturing overhead | $ 10,250 | $ 15,150 | $ 25,400 |
Estimated variable manufacturing overhead per machine-hour | $ 1.50 | $ 2.30 |
The direct materials cost, direct labor cost, and machine-hours used for Jobs P and Q are as follows:
Job P | Job Q | |
---|---|---|
Direct materials | $ 14,000 | $ 8,500 |
Direct labor cost | $ 21,800 | $ 7,900 |
Actual machine-hours used: | ||
Molding | 1,800 | 900 |
Fabrication | 700 | 1,000 |
Total | 2,500 | 1,900 |
Sweeten Company had no overapplied or underapplied manufacturing overhead costs during the year.
Required:
For questions 1-8, assume that Sweeten Company uses a plantwide predetermined overhead rate with machine-hours as the allocation base. For questions, 9-15, assume that the company uses predetermined departmental overhead rates with machine-hours as the allocation base in both departments.
Note: Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answers to nearest whole dollar.

- Harris Fabrics computes its plantwide predetermined overhead rate annually on the basis of direct labor-hours. At the beginning of the year, it estimated that 20,000 direct labor-hours would be required for the period’s estimated level of production. The company also estimated $94,000 of fixed manufacturing overhead cost for the coming period and variable manufacturing overhead of $2.00 per direct labor-hour. Harris's actual manufacturing overhead cost for the year was $123,900 and its actual total direct labor was 21,000 hours.
