Question

Exercise 2-13 DepartmentalP Wh ite Company has two departments, Cutting and Finishing. The company uses a job-order costing system and computes a predetermined overhead rate in each department. The Cutting Department bases its rate on machine-hours, and the Finishing Department bases its rate on direct labor-hours. At the beginning of the year, the company made the following estimates: Direct labor-hours Machine-hours Total fixed manufacturing overhead cost Variable manufacturing overhead per machine-hour Variable manufacturing overhead per direct labor-hour Cutting Finishing 30,8e0 5,000 264,000 $ 366,08e 6,000 48,000 $ 2.e0 $ 4.00 Required: 1. Compute the predetermined overhead rate for each department 2. The job cost sheet for Job 203, which was started and completed during the year, showed the following Department Cutting Finishing Direct 1labor-hours Machine-hours Direct materials Direct labor cost 20 80 $ 500$310 108 $ 360 Using the predetermined overhead rates that you computed in requirement (1), compute the total manufacturing cost assigned to Job 203 3. Would you expect substantially different amounts of overhead cost to be assigned to some jobs if the company used a plantwide predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor-hours, rather than using departmental rates?

Answer 1)                     Cutting   Finishing      Total fixed manufacturing overhead cost =   264000   366000      Total machine hr.   48000        Total labor hr    5000                Total fixed overhead per machine hr  =264000/48000 5.50        Total fixed overhead per Labor hr    =366000/5000  73.20                Variable manufacturing overhead rate per MH  2        Variable manufacturing overhead rate per labor hr    4      Total overhead rate per machine hr  7.50        Total overhead rate per labor hr     77.20                          answer 2)  Computation of total manufacturing cost for Job 203  Job 203                     Cutting   Finishing  Total    A Direct material  500  310 810    B Direct labor  108  360 468      Manufacturing overhead         C  Cutting  =7.5*80  600   600    D  Finishing  =77.2*4    308.8  308.8               E=A+B+C+D Total manufacturing cost  1208   978.8  2186.8               Therefore total cost =  2186.80                   answer 3)                      Computation of plant wide overhead rate =  =(264000+366000)/(6000+30000)  17.50                           Computation of total cost of job         A Direct material 810        B Direct labor 468        C Overhead = 17.5*(6+20) 455         Total cost 1733                   Therefore we are seeing cost is lower and is significantly different        .

Answer 1)
			Cutting		Finishing
	Total fixed manufacturing overhead cost =		264000		366000
	Total machine hr.		48000
	Total labor hr				5000

	Total fixed overhead per machine hr	=264000/48000	5.50
	Total fixed overhead per Labor hr			=366000/5000	73.20

	Variable manufacturing overhead rate per MH		2
	Variable manufacturing overhead rate per labor hr				4
	Total overhead rate per machine hr		7.50
	Total overhead rate per labor hr				77.20


answer 2)	Computation of total manufacturing cost for Job 203		Job 203

			Cutting		Finishing	Total
A	Direct material		500		310	810
B	Direct labor		108		360	468
	Manufacturing overhead
C	Cutting	=7.580*	600			600
D	Finishing	=77.24*			308.8	308.8

E=A+B+C+D	Total manufacturing cost		1208		978.8	2186.8

	Therefore total cost =	2186.80

answer 3)

	Computation of plant wide overhead rate =	=(264000+366000)/(6000+30000)			17.50


	Computation of total cost of job
A	Direct material	810
B	Direct labor	468
C	Overhead = 17.5*(6+20)	455
	Total cost	1733

	Therefore we are seeing cost is lower and is significantly different
