Managerial Accounting: Creating Value in a Dynamic Business Environment
- Brees, Inc., a manufacturer of golf carts, has just received an offer from a supplier to provide 2,600 units of a component used in its main product. The component is a track assembly that is currently produced internally. The supplier has offered to sell the track assembly for 66 per unit. Brees is currently using a traditional, unit-based costing system that assigns overhead to jobs on the basis of direct labor hours. The estimated traditional full cost of producing the track assembly is as follows: Prior to making a decision, the companys CEO commissioned a special study to see whether there would be any decrease in the fixed overhead costs. The results of the study revealed the following: 3 setups1,160 each (The setups would be avoided, and total spending could be reduced by 1,160 per setup.) One half-time inspector is needed. The company already uses part-time inspectors hired through a temporary employment agency. The yearly cost of the part-time inspectors for the track assembly operation is 12,300 and could be totally avoided if the part were purchased. Engineering work: 470 hours, 45/hour. (Although the work decreases by 470 hours, the engineer assigned to the track assembly line also spends time on other products, and there would be no reduction in his salary.) 75 fewer material moves at 30 per move. Required: 1. Ignore the special study, and determine whether the track assembly should be produced internally or purchased from the supplier. 2. Now, using the special study data, repeat the analysis. 3. Discuss the qualitative factors that would affect the decision, including strategic implications. 4. After reviewing the special study, the controller made the following remark: This study ignores the additional activity demands that purchasing would cause. For example, although the demand for inspecting the part on the production floor decreases, we may need to inspect the incoming parts in the receiving area. Will we actually save any inspection costs? Is the controller right?arrow_forwardBox Springs, Inc., makes two sizes of box springs: twin and double. The direct material for the twin is $25 per unit and $40 s used in direct labor, while the direct material for the double is $40 per unit, and the labor cost is $50 per unit. Box Springs estimates it will make 5,000 twins and 9,000 doubles in the next year.

The first stage assigns all factory overhead costs to two production departments, A and B, based on machine hours. The second stage uses direct labor hours to allocate overhead to individual products.  For the current year, the firm budgeted $1,650,000 total factory overhead cost. The $1,650,000 was for the planned levels of machine and direct labor hours shown in the following table.   Production Department A Production Department B Machine hours 6,600 26,400 Direct labor hours 33,000 16,500  The following information relates to the firm’s operations for the month of January:   Deluxe Regular Units produced and sold 330 1,320 Unit cost of direct materials $ 165 $ 82.50 Hourly direct labor wage rate $ 25 $ 33 Direct labor hours in Department A per unit 2 2 Direct labor hours in Department B per unit 1 1  Carter Company is…arrow_forwardIf a table lamp requires 2 hours of fabrication and 1 hour of assembly, the total amount of factory overhead that Kaumajet Factory will allocate to table lamps using the multiple production department factory overhead rate method with an allocation base of direct labor hours if 75,000 units are produced isarrow_forward
- A company manufactures a product with three models, each with different direct material costs and labour hour required and monthly production volume as follows: Labor rate is $10 per hour. The total manufacturing overhead is estimated to be $103,000 per month. Required: a)  The manufacturing overhead is allocated to the three models based on labor hour. Compute the pre-determined overhead rate and the unit product cost of Model A. b)  The company is considering to use the activity-based costing and gathers the following data related to the cost and activities:  Model A Model B Model C Units of production 1,700 1,200 1,100 Labour hour required 0.3 0.6 0.7 Direct material costs 30 40 50   Expected Activity Activity Cost Pool Overhead Costs Model A Model B Model C Activity 1 $30,000 1,000 600 400…arrow_forwardMaxey & Sons manufactures two types of storage cabinets-lype A and Type B-and applies manufacturing overhead to all units at the rate of $120 per machine hour. Production information follows. Descriptions Anticipated volume (units) Direct-material cost per unit Direct-labor cost per unit Descriptions The controller, who is studying the use of activity-based costing, has determined that the firm's overhead can be identified with three activities: manufacturing setups, machine processing, and product shipping. Data on the number of setups, machine hours, and outgoing shipments, which are the activities' three respective cost drivers, follow.

At the beginning of the year, the company estimated that 54,000 machine-hours would be required for the period's estimated level of production. It also estimated $1,040,000 of fixed manufacturing overhead cost for the coming period and variable manufacturing overhead of $5.00 per machine-hour. Because Delph has two manufacturing departments-Molding and Fabrication-it is considering replacing its plantwide overhead rate with departmental rates that would also be based on machine-hours. The company gathered the following information to enable calculating departmental overhead rates: Machine-hours Fixed manufacturing overhead cost Variable manufacturing overhead cost per machine-hour Job D-70 Direct materials cost Direct labor cost Machine-hours Job C-200 Direct materials cost Direct labor cost Machine-hours During the year, the company had no beginning or ending inventories and it…arrow_forward

The company was allocating manufacturing overhead using a single plantwide rate of $2.40 with direct labor hours as the allocation base.  The company has refined its allocation system by separating manufacturing overhead costs into two cost pools—one for each department. The estimated costs for the Mixing​ Department, $490,000​, will be allocated based on direct labor​ hours, and the estimated direct labor hours for the year are 175,000. The estimated costs for the Packaging​ Department, $103,500​, will be allocated based on machine​ hours, and the estimated machine hours for the year are 30,000.
