The management of Casablanca Manufacturing Corporation believes that machine-hours is an appropriate measure of activity for overhead cost Shown below are machine-hours and total overhead costs for the past six months: Machine- Overhead Нours Cost Jan 150,000 P339,000 Feb 140,000 P328,000 Mar 160,000 P350,000 Apr 130,000 P319,500 May 170,000 P362,500 Jun 200,000 P400,000 Assume that the relevant range includes all of the activity levels mentioned in this problem. If Casablanca expects to incur 185,000 machine hours next month, what will the estimated total overhead cost be using the high-low method?

A manufacturing company applies factory overhead based on direct labor hours. At the beginning of the year, it estimated that factory overhead costs would be $351,232 and direct labor hours would be 43,904. Actual factory overhead costs incurred were $391,711, and actual direct labor hours were 51,004. What is the amount of overapplied or underapplied manufacturing overhead at the end of the year? a.$16,321 overapplied b.$408,032 overapplied c.$16,321 underapplied d.$56,800 underapplied       Aspen Technologies has the following budget data: Estimated direct labor hours 9,200 Estimated direct labor dollars $65,200 Estimated factory overhead costs $178,500 If factory overhead is to be applied based on direct labor hours, the predetermined overhead rate is a.$19.40 b.$29.10 c.$15.52 d.$23.28

Crosshill Company's total overhead costs at various levels of activity are presented below: Month April May June July Machine-Hours 70,000 60,000 80,000 90,000 Assume that the overhead cost above consists of utilities, supervisory salaries, and maintenance. The breakdown of these costs at the 60,000-machine-hour level of activity in May is as follows: Utilities (variable) Supervisory salaries (fixed) Maintenance (mixed) Total overhead cost Total Overhead Cost $200,200 $177,300 $223,100 $246,000 $ 48,000 21,000 108,300 $177,300 The company wants to break down the maintenance cost into its variable and fixed cost elements. Maintenance cost in July Required: 1. Estimate how much of the $246,000 of overhead cost in July was maintenance cost. (Hint: To do this, first betermine how much of the $246,000 consisted of utilities and supervisory salaries. Think about the behaviour of variable and fixed costs within the relevant range.) (Round the "Variable cost per unit" to 2 decimal places.)

d. Assume that the actual level of activity next year was 36,000 direct labor hours and that manufactur- ing overhead was $341,550. Determine the underapplied or overapplied manufacturing overhead at the end of the year. e. Describe two ways of handling any underapplied or overapplied manufacturing overhead at the end of the year.  e. Describe two ways of handling any underapplied or overapplied manufacturing overhead at the end of the year.
