Transcribed Image Text:Hybrid costing
Pat Koontz makes necklaces from glass beads, metal beads, and natural beads. After reading about hybrid costing, she realized that the different types of necklaces did not cost the same
amount of money to make, even though they took the same amount of time and effort to assemble. Koontz developed the following standard costs for each type of necklace:
Beads
Direct labor (1.5 hours)
Overhead (based on 1.5 hours)
Glass Metal Natural
$24.00 $15.00 $7.00
15.00 15.00 15.00
8.00 8.00 8.00
$47.00 $38.00 $30.00
Total
Koontz began the year with no beginning WIP Inventory after she experienced an extreme holiday rush. During January, 286 necklaces were started: 154 were glass, 55 were metal, and 77
were natural. At the end of January, 55 necklaces were not yet complete: 11 glass, 29 metal, and 15 natural. The stage of completion for each cost component for the 55 unfinished necklaces
was as follows:
Material
100% complete
Conversion 60% complete
