Anazi Leather Company manufactures leather handbags and moccasins. The company has been using the single plantwide factory overhead rate method but has decided to evaluate the multiple production department factory overhead rate method to allocate factory overhead. The factory overhead estimated per unit together with direct materials and direct labor will help determine selling prices. Handbags = 60,000 units, 3 hours of direct labor Moccasins = 40,000 units, 2 hours of direct labor Total budgeted factory overhead cost = $360,000 The company has two different production departments: Cutting and Sewing. The Cutting Department has a factory overhead budget of $80,000. Each unit will require 1 direct labor hour or a total of 100,000 direct labor hours. The Sewing Department estimates factory overhead in the amount of $280,000. Handbags require 2 hours of sewing time, and Moccasins require 1 hour for a total of 160,000 direct labor hours. Using the multiple production department factory…
Patel and Sons Inc. uses a standard cost system to apply factory overhead costs to units produced. Practical capacity for the plant is defined as 51,600 machine hours per year, which represents 25,800 units of output. Annual budgeted fixed factory overhead costs are $258,000 and the budgeted variable factory overhead cost rate is $2.50 per unit. Factory overhead costs are applied on the basis of standard machine hours allowed for units produced. Budgeted and actual output for the year was 19,500 units, which took 40,600 machine hours. Actual fixed factory overhead costs for the year amounted to $251,600 while the actual variable overhead cost per unit was $2.40. Assume that at the end of the year, management of Patel and Sons decides that the overhead cost variances should be allocated to WIP Inventory, Finished Goods Inventory, and Cost of Goods Sold (CGS) using the following percentages: 10%, 20%, and 70%, respectively. Provide the proper journal entry to close out the…
National Pottery makes handmade clay pots. The company anticipates $3,187,219 of manufacturing overhead in the coming year. Because it is a labor-intensive organization, National Pottery bases overhead allocation on direct labor cost. The direct labor quantity standard is 2.7 hours per pot, and the standard direct labor rate is $22.50 per hour. The anticipated direct labor cost for the year is $3,375,000. Variable overhead is expected to be $2,162,350. What is the standard fixed overhead cost per pot? Round your answer to the nearest cent. O $23.11 O $6.83 O $38.92 O $18.45

Macalister Corporation is developing departmental overhead rates based on direct labor hours for its two production departments-Molding and Assembly. The Molding Department employs 15 people, and the Assembly Department employs 77 people. Each person in these two departments works 1,910 hours per year. The production-related overhead costs for the Molding Department are budgeted at $197,000, and the Assembly Department costs are budgeted at $97,000. Two support departments-Engineering and General Factory-directly support the two production departments and have budgeted costs of $248,000 and $405,000, respectively. The production departments' overhead rates cannot be determined until the support departments' costs are properly allocated. The following schedule reflects the use of the Engineering Department's and General Factory Department's output by the various departments.

The 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:…
Byrd Company produces one product, a putter called GO-Putter. Byrd uses a standard cost system and determines that it should take one hour of direct labor to produce one GO-Putter. The normal production capacity for this putter is 100,000 units per year. The total budgeted overhead at normal capacity is $850,000 comprised of $300,000 of variable costs and $550,000 of fixed costs. Byrd applies overhead on the basis of direct labor hours. During the current year, Byrd produced 81,800 putters, worked 97,800 direct labor hours, and incurred variable overhead costs of $173,825 and fixed overhead costs of $642,300.

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…
