E19-15 Computing and using single plantwide overhead allocation rate
Learning Objective 1
Basic $322,000
Koehler makes handheld calculators in two models: basic and professional.
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?
Learning CurveBordner Company manufactures HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) systems for commercial buildings. For each new design, Bordner faces a 90 percent learning rate. On aver-age, the first unit of a new design takes 600 hours. Direct labor is paid $25 per hour.
Required:1. Set up a table with columns showing: the cumulative number of units, cumulative average time per unit in hours, and cumulative total time in hours. Show results by row for total pro-duction of one unit, two units, four units, eight units, and sixteen units. (Round hour answers to two significant digits.)
2. What is the total labor cost if Bordner makes the following number of units: one, four, sixteen? What is the average cost per system for the following number of systems: one, four, or sixteen? (Round your answers to the nearest dollar.)

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. Calculate the departmental overhead rates for Snyder's three production lines. Round
all answers to the nearest cent.

Cicleta also began moving toward a JIT purchasing and manufacturing system. When JIT is fully implemented, the demand for expediting is expected to be virtually eliminated. It is expected to take two to three years for full implementation. Assume that receiving cost is a step-fixed cost with steps of 1,500 orders. The other three activities employ resources that are acquired as used and needed. At the end of 20x2, the following results were reported for the four activities: Required: 1. Prepare a trend report that shows the non-value-added costs for each activity for 20x1 and 20x2 and the change in costs for the two periods. Discuss the reports implications. 2. Explain the role of activity reduction for receiving and for expediting. What is the expected value of SQ for each activity after JIT is fully implemented? 3. What if at the end of 20x2, the selling price of a competing product is reduced by 27 per unit? Assume that the firm produces and sells 20,000 units of its product and that its product is associated only with the four activities being considered. By virtue of the waste-reduction savings, can the competitors price reduction be matched without reducing the unit profit margin of the product that prevailed at the beginning of the year? If not, how much more waste reduction is needed to achieve this outcome? In this case, what price decision would you recommend?arrow_forward

- E4-23A Use ABC to allocate manufacturing overhead (Learning Objective 2) Several years after reengineering its production process, Biltmore Corporation hired a new controller, Rachael Johnson. She developed an ABC system very similar to the one used by Biltmore’s chief rival, Westriver. Part of the reason Johnson developed the ABC system was because Biltmore’s profits had been declining even though the company had shifted its product mix toward the product that had appeared most profitable under the old system. Before adopting the new ABC system, Biltmore had used a plantwide overhead rate based on direct labor hours that was developed years ago. For the upcoming year, Biltmore’s budgeted ABC manufacturing overhead allocation rates are as follows: Activity Allocation Base Activity Cost Allocation Rate Materials handling # of parts $3.84 per part Machine setup # of setups $330.00 per setup Insertion of parts # of parts $30.00 per part Finishing Finishing DL hrs $54.00 per hour The…arrow_forwardLearning Objectives 2, 3, 4 1.
