Performance Gloves, Inc. produces three sizes of sports gloves: small, medium, and large. A
glove pattern is first stenciled onto leather in the Pattern Department. The stenciled patterns
are then sent to the Cut and Sew Department, where the glove is cut and sewed together.
Performance Gloves uses the multiple production department factory
allocating
Department Dollar Amount
Pattern Department $216,000
Cut and Sew Department 960,000
Total Overhead 1,176,000
The direct labor estimated for each production department was as follows:
Department Direct Labor Hours
Pattern Department 36,000
Cut and Sew Department 60,000
Total Direct Labor Hours 96,000
Direct labor hours are used to allocate the production department overhead to the products.
The direct labor hours per unit for each product for each production department were obtained
from the engineering records as follows:
Production Departments Small Glove Medium Glove Large Glove
Pattern Department .30 .35 .40
Cut and Sew Department .60 .50 .84
Total Direct Labor Hours per Unit .90 .85 1.24

- The Platter Valley factory of Bybee Industries manufactures field boots. The cost of each boot includes direct materials, direct labor, and manufacturing (factory) overhead. The firm traces all direct costs to products, and it assigns overhead cost to products based on direct labor hours. The company budgeted $15,000 variable factory overhead cost, $90,000 for fixed factory overhead cost and 2,500 direct labor hours (its practical capacity) to manufacture 5,000 pairs of boots in March. The factory used 2,700 direct labor hours in March to manufacture 4,800 pairs of boots and spent $15,600 on variable overhead during the month. The actual fixed overhead cost incurred for the month was $92,000. Required: 1.
