Analyze manufacturing
Benson Foundry in Charleston, South Carolina, uses a predetermined manufacturing overhead rate to allocate overhead to individual jobs based on the machine hours required. At the beginning of the year, the company expected to incur the following:
| $ 610,000 | |
| Direct labor cost | $15,00,000 |
| Machine hours | 76,250 |
At the end of the year, the company had actually incurred the following:
| Direct labor cost | $1,220,000 |
| $ 470,000 | |
| Property taxes on plant | $ 19,000 |
| Sales salaries | $ 25,500 |
| Delivery drivers’ wages | $ 14,500 |
| Plant janitors’ wages | $ 8,000 |
| Machine hours | 55,500 hours |
Requirements
- 1. Compute Benson Foundry’s predetermined manufacturing overhead rate.
- 2. How much manufacturing overhead was allocated to jobs during the year?
- 3. How much manufacturing overhead was incurred during the year? Is manufacturing overhead underallocated or overallocated at the end of the year? By how much?
- 4. Were the jobs overcosted or undercosted? By how much?

Compute departmental overhead rates (Learning Objective 1)54-4Snyder Snacks makes potato chips, corn chips, and cheese puffs using three different pro- duction lines within 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. Calculate the departmental overhead rates for Snyder's three production lines. Roundall answers to the nearest cent .3. Which products have been overcosted by the plantwide rate?

In Class Assignment 1
AlSaleh has assigned overhead on a plantwide basis to its two products (Tables and Chairs) using
direct labor hours which are estimated to be 200,000 for the current year. The company has decided
to experiment with activity-based costing and has created two activity cost pools and related
activity cost drivers. These two cost pools are Ordering and receiving (cost driver is Purchase
orders) and machine setup (cost driver is number of setups). Overhead allocated to the ordering
and receiving cost pool is $200,000, and $800,000 is allocated to the machine setup cost pool.
Additional information related to these pools is as follows:
