Sam's Accessories uses four departments to produce handles for kitchen cabinets: Forming requires mixing the raw materials, Moulding, Spraying and Drying. After leaving the Drying Department, the handles are packaged and sent to the Finished Goods warehouse for shipment to retail outlets. The following data relates to the Spraying Department for the month of June: During the month, 2,000 handles valued at $275 each were transferred from the Molding Department to the Spraying Department. Other production costs incurred during the month are summarized as follows: Direct Materials Added Direct Manufacturing Wages Manufacturing Overhead $171,000 $425,600 $205,200 Process inspection occurs during the process and normally no losses are expected at this stage. However, during the month 200 handles were rejected at inspection. Rejected units from this department are sold as scrap at $400 each. These units had reached the following degree of completion: Transfer from Moulding 100%…
Terri Ronsin had recently been transferred to the House Security Division of National Home products. Shortly after taking over her new position as individual controller, she was asked to develop the divisions' predetermined overhead rate for the upcoming year. The accuracy of the rate is important because it is used throughout the year and any over applied or under applied overhead is closed out to Cost of Goods Sold at the end of the year. National Home Products uses direct labor -hours in all of its divisions as the allocation base for manufacturing overhead. To compute the pretermined overhead rate, Terri divided her estimate of the total manufacturing overhead for the coming year by the production manager's estimate of the total direct labor hours for the coming year. She took her computations to the division's general manager for approval but was quite surprised when he suggested a modification in the base. Her conversation with the general manager…

Manning has just returned from a packaging industry conference on activity-based costing. She realizes that ABC may help LeMar meet its goal of reducing costs by 5% over each of the next three years. LeMar Packaging’s Order Department is a likely candidate for ABC. While orders are entered into a computer that updates the accounting records, clerks manually check customers’ credit history and hand-deliver orders to shipping. This process occurs whether the sales order is for a dozen specialty boxes worth $80 or 10,000 basic boxes worth $8,000. Manning believes that identifying the cost of processing a sales order would justify (1) further computerization of the order process and (2) changing the way the company processes small orders. However, the significant cost savings would arise from the elimination of two positions in the Order Department. The…arrow_forwardFarnsworth Company has gathered data on its overhead activities and associated costs for the past 10 months. Tracy Heppler, a member of the controller's department, has convinced management that overhead costs can be better estimated and controlled if the fixed and variable components of each overhead activity are known. One such activity is receiving raw materials (unloading incoming goods, counting goods, and inspecting goods), which she believes is driven by the number of receiving orders. Ten months of data have been gathered for the receiving activity and are as follows: Month Receiving Orders Receiving Cost $ 1 1,000 18,000 2 700 15,000 3 1,500 28,000 4 1,200 17,000 5 1,300 25,000 6 1,100 21,000 7 1,600 29,000 8 1,400 24,000 9 1,700 27,000 10 900 16,000 Assume that Tracy has used the method of least squares on the receiving data and has gotten the following results: Intercept 3,212…arrow_forward

- Modern Building Solutions (MBS) builds portable buildings to clients’ specifications. The firm has two departments: Parts Fabrication and Assembly. The Parts Fabrication Department designs and cuts the major components of the building and is highly automated. The Assembly Department assembles and installs the components and this department is highly labor intensive. The Assembly Department begins work on the buildings as soon as the floor components are available from the Parts Fabrication Department. In its first month of operations (March 2013), MBS obtained contracts for three buildings: Job 1: a 20-by 40-foot storage building Job 2: a 35-foot commercial utility building Job 3: a 30-by 40-foot portable classroom MBS bills its customers on a cost-plus basis, with profit set equal to 25 percent of costs. The firm uses a job order costing system based on normal costs. Overhead is applied in Parts Fabrication at a predetermined rate of P100 per machine hour (MH). In the Assembly…arrow_forwardRooney Company is a cosmetics manufacturer. Its assembly department receives raw cosmetics from the molding department.
