Drive Safe, Inc. a leading manufacturer of car spare parts, divided its manufacturing process into two
Departments - Production and Packing. The estimated
departments amounted to $14,000,000 and $20,000,000, respectively. The company produces two types of parts - Part 1 and Part 2. The total estimated labor hours for the year were 40,000, and estimated machine hours were 35,000. The Production department is mechanized, whereas the Packing department is labor oriented.

- Eclipse Motor Company manufactures two types of specialty electric motors, a commercial motor and a residential motor, through two production departments, Assembly and Testing. Presently, the company uses a single plantwide factory overhead rate for allocating factory overhead to the two products. However, management is considering using the multiple production department factory overhead rate method. The following factory overhead was budgeted for Eclipse: Assembly Department $280,000 Testing Department 800,000 Total $1,080,000 Direct machine hours were estimated as follows: Assembly Department 4,000 hours Testing Department 5,000 Total 9,000 hours In addition, the direct machine hours (dmh) used to produce a unit of each product in each department were determined from engineering records, as follows: Commercial Residential Assembly Department 2.0 dmh 3.0 dmh Testing Department 6.0 1.5 Total machine hours per unit 8.0 dmh 4.5 dmh…arrow_forwardThe Gilster Company, a machine tooling firm, has several plants. One plant, located in St. Cloud, Minnesota, uses a job order costing system for its batch production processes. The St. Cloud plant has two departments through which most jobs pass. Plant-wide overhead, which includes the plant manager’s salary, accounting personnel, cafeteria, and human resources, is budgeted at $250,000. During the past year, actual plantwide overhead was $230,000. Each department’s overhead consists primarily of depreciation and other machine-related expenses. Selected budgeted and actual data from the St. Cloud plant for the past year are as follows. Department A Department B Budgeted department overhead (excludes plantwide overhead) $ 108,000 $ 329,000 Actual department overhead 120,000 344,000 Expected total activity: Direct labor hours 44,000 10,000 Machine-hours 18,000 47,000 Actual activity:…arrow_forwardKlumper Corporation is a diversified manufacturer of industrial goods.

- Tri-bikes manufactures two different levels of bicycles: the Standard and the Extreme. The total overhead of $300,000 has traditionally been allocated by direct labor hours, with 150,000 hours for the Standard and 50,000 hours for the Extreme. After analyzing and assigning costs to two cost pools, it was determined that machine hours is estimated to have $200,000 of overhead, with 4,000 hours used on the Standard product and 1,000 hours used on the Extreme product. It was also estimated that the setup cost pool would have $100,000 of overhead, with 1,000 hours for the Standard and 1,500 hours for the Extreme.

Assembly has 210 employees and occupies 56,400 square feet; Painting has 140 employees and occupies 37,600 square feet. The company has indirect expenses that consist of administrative expenses of $87,000 and maintenance expenses of $105,000. Administrative expenses are allocated based on the number of workers in each department and maintenance is allocated based on square footage. The amount of maintenance expenses that should be allocated to the Assembly Department for the current period is: Multiple Choice O $52,200. O $63,000. O $115,200. O $115,950.

The annual production and sales of toasters is 2,100 units, while 1,700 units of blenders are produced and sold. The company Khas traditionally used direct labor hours to allocate its overhead to products. Toasters require 1.25 direct labor hours per unit, while blenders require 0.75 direct labor hours per unit. The total estimated overhead for the period is $148,315. The company is looking at the possibility of changing to an activity-based costing system for its products. If the company used an activity-based costing system, it would have the following three activity cost pools Expected activity Estimated overhead cost $8.585 $71,980 880 engineering hours $67,750 2,625 direct labor hours $148.315 The cost pool activity rate for Engineering Costs would be closest to (Round all answers to two decimal places.)
