Dr. Alyx Hemmings is employed by Mesa Dental. Mesa Dental recently installed a computerized job-order costing system to help monitor the cost of its services. Each patient is assigned a job number when he or she checks in with the receptionist. The receptionist-bookkeeper notes the time the patient enters the treatment area and when the patient leaves the area. This difference between the entry and exit times is the number of patient hours used and the direct labor time assigned to the dental assistant. (A dental assistant is constantly with the patient.) The direct labor time assigned to the dentist is 50 percent of the patient hours. (The dentist typically splits her time between two patients.) The chart filled out by the dental assistant provides additional data that is entered into the computer. For example, the chart contains service codes that identify the nature of the treatment, such as whether the patient received a crown, a filling, or a root canal. The chart not only identifies the type of service but its level as well. For example, if a patient receives a filling, the dental assistant indicates (by a service-level code) whether the filling was one, two, three, or four surfaces. The service and service-level codes are used to determine the rate to be charged to the patient. The costs of providing different services and their levels also vary. Costs assignable to a patient consist of materials, labor, and overhead. The types of materials usedand the quantityare identified by the assistant and entered into the computer by the bookkeeper. Material prices are kept on file and accessed to provide the necessary cost information. Overhead is applied on the basis of patient hours. The rate used by Mesa Dental is 32 per patient hour. Direct labor cost is also computed using patient hours and the wage rates of the direct laborers. Dr. Hemmings is paid an average of 60 per hour for her services. Dental assistants are paid an average of 20 per hour. Given the treatment time, the software program calculates and assigns the labor cost for the dentist and her assistant; overhead cost is also assigned using the treatment time and the overhead rate. The overhead rate does not include a charge for any X-rays. The X-Ray Department is separate from dental services; X-rays are billed and costed separately. The cost of an X-ray is 12 per film; the patient is charged 15 per film. If cleaning services are required, cleaning labor costs 35 per patient hour. Glen Johnson, a patient (Job 267), spent 30 minutes in the treatment area and had a two-surface filling. He received two Novocaine shots and used three ampules of amalgam. The cost of the shots was 14 (7 each). The cost of the amalgam was 6 per ampule. Other direct materials used are insignificant in amount and are included in the overhead rate. The rate charged to the patient for a two-surface filling is 110. One X-ray was taken. Required: 1. Prepare a job-order cost sheet for Glen Johnson. What is the cost for providing a two-surface filling? What is the gross profit earned? Is the X-ray a direct cost of the service? Why are the X-rays costed separately from the overhead cost assignment? 2. Suppose that the patient time and associated patient charges are given for the following fillings: Compute the cost for each filling and the gross profit for each type of filling. Assume that the cost of Novocaine is 14 for all fillings. Ampules of amalgam start at two and increase by one for each additional surface. Assume also that only one X-ray film is needed for all four cases. Does the increase in billing rate appear to be fair to the patient? Is it fair to the dental corporation?
Using job order costing in a service company Bluebird Design, Inc. is a Web site design and consulting firm. The firm uses a job order costing system in which each client is a different job. Bluebird Design assigns direct labor, licensing costs, and travel costs directly to each job. It allocates indirect costs to jobs based on a predetermined overhead allocation rate, computed as a percentage of direct labor costs. At the beginning of 2018, managing partner Sally Simone prepared the following budget estimates: In November 2018, Bluebird Design served several clients. Records for two clients appear here: Requirements Compute Bluebird Designs direct labor rate and its predetermined overhead allocation rate for 2018. Compute the total cost of each job. If Simone wants to earn profits equal to 50% of service revenue, what fee should she charge each of these two clients? Why does Bluebird Design assign costs to jobs?
