Question
Xin Manufacturing Company manufactures blue​ rugs, using wool and dye as direct materials. One rug is budgeted to use
38 skeins of wool at a cost of $7 per skein and 0.7 gallons of dye at a cost of $5 per gallon. All other materials are indirect. At the beginning of the year Xin has an inventory of 456,000 skeins of wool at a cost of $1,048,800 and 3,400 gallons of dye at a cost of
$21,760. Target ending inventory of wool and dye is zero.
Xin uses the FIFO inventory cost flow method.There is no direct manufacturing labor cost for dyeing. Xin budgets 48 direct manufacturing​ labor-hours to weave a rug at a budgeted rate of $17 per hour. It budgets 0.3 ​machine-hours to dye each skein in the dyeing process.
 
Xin
blue rugs are very popular and demand is​ high, but because of capacity constraints the firm will produce only
275,000
blue rugs per year. The budgeted selling price is
$2,400
each. There are no rugs in beginning inventory. Target ending inventory of rugs is also zero.
 
Xin makes rugs by​ hand, but uses a machine to dye the wool.​ Thus, overhead costs are accumulated in two cost pools—one
for weaving and the other for dyeing. Weaving overhead is allocated to products based on direct manufacturing​ labor-hours (DMLH). Dyeing overhead is allocated to products based on​ machine-hours (MH).
 
The following table presents the budgeted overhead costs for the dyeing and weaving cost pools:
