Question

Direct Labor Standards for Nonmanufacturing Expenses

Southwest Iowa Hospital began using standards to evaluate its Admissions Department. The standards were broken into two types of admissions as follows:

Type of Admission Standard Time to Complete
Admission Record
Unscheduled admission 30 min  
Scheduled admission 15 min.  

The unscheduled admission took longer, since name, address, and insurance information needed to be determined at the time of admission. Information was collected on scheduled admissions prior to the admissions, which was less time consuming.

The Admissions Department employs two full-time people (36 hours per week, with no overtime) at $21 per hour. For the most recent week, the department handled 55 unscheduled and 210 scheduled admissions.
