Support Department Cost Allocation-Direct Method Christmas Timber, Inc., produces Christmas trees. The trees are produced through a cutting and pruning process. Machine maintenance and janitorial labors are performed throughout the production process by nonproduction employees. Maintenance and janitorial costs are allocated based on machine hours used and the number of trees in each department, respectively. The company estimates that the cutting and pruning areas typically have about 7 and 63 trees, respectively, in them at 1 time. The company also estimates that the cutting process requires about 9 times as many machine hours as the pruning process. The total costs of each department are as follows: Maintenance Department Janitorial Department Cutting Department Pruning Department $8,000 3,000 57,000 13,000 Using the direct method of support department cost allocation, determine the total cost of each production department after allocating all support costs to the production…

Sequential (Step) Method of Support Department Cost Allocation Chekov Company has two support departments, Human Resources and General Factory, and two producing departments, Fabricating and Assembly. Direct costs Normal activity: Number of employees Square footage Human Resources General Factory Direct costs Allocate: General Factory Support Departments Human Resources Human Resources Total after allocation $150,000 1,500 The costs of the Human Resources Department are allocated on the basis of number of employees, and the costs of General Factory are allocated on the basis of square footage. Now assume that Chekov Company uses the sequential method to allocate support department costs. The support departments are ranked in order of highest cost to lowest cost. Required: 1. Calculate the allocation ratios (rounded to six significant digits) for the four departments using the sequential method. If an amount is zero, enter "0". Use the rounded values for subsequent calculations. Human…
