Question
The HeatRadiator Company uses a​ normal-costing system with a single manufacturing overhead cost pool and​ machine-hours as the​ cost-allocation base. The following data are for 2017​:
 
 
Read the
requirements2.
 
Requirement 1. Compute the budgeted manufacturing overhead rate for
2017.
 
Begin by selecting the formula you will use.​ Then, enter the amounts and calculate the rate.
 
 
 
 
 
 
Budgeted manufacturing

overhead rate
 
 
 
/
 
=
 
 
Requirement 2. Compute the​ under-or overallocated manufacturing overhead of
Heat
Radiator in
2017.
 
Begin by selecting the formula you will use.​ Next, enter the amounts in the formula and compute the​ under-or overallocated manufacturing overhead. ​(Use parentheses or a minus sign when entering overallocated​ amounts.)

b. Dispose of the amount using a proration based on ending balances​ (before proration) in​ Work-in-Process Control, Finished Goods​ Control, and Cost of Goods Sold. Begin by selecting the formula to calculate the adjustment to each account. Then enter the amounts in the formula. ​(Enter the proportions as a decimal to three decimal​ places, "X.XXX". Use a minus sign or parentheses to show overallocated amounts and adjustments to be​ subtracted.)

c. Dispose of the amount using a proration based on the overhead allocated in
2017 ​(before proration) in the ending balances of​ Work-in-Process Control, Finished Goods​ Control, and Cost of Goods Sold. Begin by selecting the formula to calculate the adjustment to each account. Then enter the amounts in the formula. ​(Enter the proportions as a decimal to three decimal​ places, "X.XXX". Use a minus sign or parentheses to show overallocated amounts and adjustments to be​ subtracted.)

Requirement 3. Which method do you prefer in requirement​ 2? Explain.
 
Alternative
(9) 
 
 
is theoretically preferred over
(10) 
 
 
.
This alternative yields the same ending balances in work in​ process, finished​ goods, and cost of goods sold that would have been reported
(11) 
 
 
.
1: Data Table
Budgeted manufacturing overhead costs
$5,850,000
Overhead allocation base
Machine-hours
Budgeted machine-hours
90,000
Manufacturing overhead costs incurred
$6,000,000
Actual machine-hours
85,000
 
​Machine-hours data and the ending balances​ (before proration of​ under-or overallocated​ overhead) are as​ follows:
 
 
Actual Machine-Hours
2017 End-of-Year Balance
Cost of Goods Sold
68,000
$8,800,000
Finished Goods Control
10,000
1,650,000
Work-in-Process Control
7,000
550,000
2: Requirements
1.
Compute the budgeted manufacturing overhead rate for
2017.
2.
Compute the​ under-or overallocated manufacturing overhead of
Heat
Radiator in
2017.
Dispose of this amount using the​ following:
 
a.
​Write-off to Cost of Goods Sold
b.
Proration based on ending balances​ (before proration) in​ Work-in-Process Control, Finished Goods​ Control, and Cost of Goods Sold
c.
Proration based on the overhead allocated in
2017
​(before proration) in the ending balances of​ Work-in-Process Control, Finished Goods​ Control, and Cost of Goods Sold
3.
Which method do you prefer in requirement​ 2? Explain.
