PROBLEM 1 FIGHTING Manufacturing Corporation has a traditional costing system in which it applies manufacturing overhead to its products using a predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor hours (DLHs). The company has two products, H16Z and P25P, about which it has provided the following data:     H16Z P25P   Direct materials per unit P10.20 P50.50   Direct labor per unit P8.40 P25.20   Direct labor-hours per unit 0.40 1.20   Annual production 30,000 10,000   The company’s estimated total manufacturing overhead for the year is P1,464,480 and the company’s estimated total direct labor-hours for the year is 24,000.   The company is considering using a variation of activity-based costing to determine its unit product costs for external reports. Data for this proposed activity-based costing system appear below:     Activities and Activity Measures Estimated Overhead Cost   Supporting direct labor (DLHs) P  552,000   Setting…
Landen Corporation uses a job-order costing system. At the beginning of the year, the company made the following estimates: Direct labor-hours required to support estimated production Machine-hours required to support estimated production Fixed manufacturing overhead cost 100,000 50,000 $ 280,000 $ 2.80 $ 5.60 Variable manufacturing overhead cost per direct labor-hour Variable manufacturing overhead cost per machine-hour During the year, Job 550 was started and completed. The following information is available with respect to this job: Direct materials Direct labor cost Direct labor-hours Machine-hours $ 216 $ 327 15 5 Required: 1. Assume that Landen has historically used a plantwide predetermined overhead rate with direct labor-hours as the allocation base. Under this approach: a. Compute the plantwide predetermined overhead rate. b. Compute the total manufacturing cost of Job 550. c. If Landen uses a markup percentage of 200% of its total manufacturing cost, what selling price would…
