Use ABC to allocate manufacturing overhead (Learning Objective 2)Several years after reengineering its production process, King Corporation hired a new controller, Christine Erickson . She developed an ABC system very similar to the one used by King's chief rival. Part of the reason Erickson developed the ABC system was because King'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, the company had used a plantwide overhead rate, based on direct labor hours developed years ago .For the upcoming year, King's budgeted ABC manufacturing overhead allocation rates are as follows :ActivityMaterials handling ..........................

Grammer Chicken produces canned chicken a la king. The chicken a la king passes through three departments: (1) Mixing, (2) Retort (sterilization), and (3) Packing. In the Mixing Department, chicken and cream are added at the beginning of the process, the mixture is partly cooked, and chopped green peppers and mushrooms are added at the end of the process. Conversion costs are incurred evenly throughout the mixing process.

The production process begins with workers weighing out ingredients on electronic scales and then placing them in a machine for mixing. A worker then manually removes the mix from the machine and shapes it into loaves by hand, after which the bread is then placed into the oven for baking. All baked loaves are then inspected by OBC's quality inspector before they are packaged up and made ready for sale. Any loaves which fail the inspection are donated to a local food bank. The standard cost card for OBC's 'Mixed Bloomer', one of its most popular loaves, is as follows: £ White flour 0.81 Wholegrain flour 0.33 0.20 Yeast Total 1.34 Budgeted production of Mixed Bloomers was 1,000 units for the quarter, although actual production was only 950 units.

- Healthway uses a process-costing system to compute the unit costs of the minerals that it produces. It has three departments: Mixing, Tableting, and Bottling. In Mixing, at the beginning of the process all materials are added and the ingredients for the minerals are measured, sifted, and blended together. The mix is transferred out in gallon containers. The Tableting Department takes the powdered mix and places it in capsules. One gallon of powdered mix converts to 1,600 capsules. After the capsules are filled and polished, they are transferred to Bottling where they are placed in bottles, which are then affixed with a safety seal and a lid and labeled. Each bottle receives 50 capsules. During July, the following results are available for the first two departments (direct materials are added at the beginning in both departments): Overhead in both departments is applied as a percentage of direct labor costs. In the Mixing Department, overhead is 200 percent of direct labor. In the Tableting Department, the overhead rate is 150 percent of direct labor. Required: 1. Prepare a production report for the Mixing Department using the weighted average method. Follow the five steps outlined in the chapter. Round unit cost to three decimal places. 2. Prepare a production report for the Tableting Department. Materials are added at the beginning of the process. Follow the five steps outlined in the chapter. Round unit cost to four decimal places.arrow_forwardBavarian Chocolate Company processes chocolate into candy bars.
