Smith Paper Co. produces the paper used by wallpaper manufacturers. Smith's four-stage process includes mixing, cooking, rolling, and cutting. On March 1, the Mixing Department had 400 rolls in process. During March, the Mixing Department completed the mixing process for those 400 rolls and also started and completed the mixing process for an additional 4,100 rolls of paper. The department started but did not finish the mixing process for an additional 500 rolls, which were 20% complete with respect to both direct materials and conversion work at the end of March. Direct materials and conversion costs are incurred evenly throughout the mixing process. The Mixing Department compiled the following data for March:
DirectMaterials | DirectLabor | Manufacturing |
TotalCosts | |
Beginning inventory, Mar. 1 | $ 475 | $ 275 | $300 | $1,050 |
Costs added during March | 5,045 | 2,900 | 2,965 | 10,910 |
Total costs | $ 5,520 | $ 3,175 | $ 3,265 | $ 11,960 |
Requirements
1. Prepare a production cost report for the Mixing Department for March. The company uses the weighted-average method.
2. Journalize all transactions affecting the company's mixing process during March. Assume labor costs are accrued and not yet paid.

- $4-3 Compute departmental overhead rates (Learning Objective 1) Snyder Snacks makes potato chips, corn chips, and cheese puffs using three different pro- du es wi the same manufacturing plant. Currently, Snyder uses a single plant- wide overhead rate to allocate its $3,311,500 of annual manufacturing overhead. Of this amount, $2,070,000 is associated with the potato chip line, $763,000 is associated with the corn chip line, and $478,500 is associated with the cheese puff line. Snyder's plant is currently running a total of 17,900 machine hours: 11,500 in the potato chip line, 3,500 in the corn chip line, and 2,900 in the cheese puff line. Snyder considers machine hours to be the cost driver of manufacturing overhead costs. 1. What is Snyder's plantwide overhead rate? 2.

Koehler estimated $721,000 of manufacturing overhead and 515,000 machine hours for the year. The basic model actually consumed 230,000 machine hours, and the professional model consumed 285,000 machine hours. Compute the predetermined overhead allocation rate using machine hours (MHr) as the allocation base. How much overhead is allocated to the basic model? To the professional model?arrow_forward
