DJ Fiber Mill processes raw wool into high-quality cleaned wool. The raw wool costs $8 per pound, but during the cleaning process, there is a 35% loss due to impurities and waste. After cleaning, the processing cost is $12 per pound of cleaned wool. Additionally, a quality bonus of 15% is applied to the final cost of the cleaned wool. Calculate the total cost of processing 200 pounds of raw wool.

Box Springs. Inc., makes two sizes of box springs: queen and king. The direct material for the queen is $35 per unit and $55 is used in direct labor, while the direct material for the king is $55 per unit, and the labor cost is $70 per unit. Box Springs estimates it will make 4,300 queens and 3,000 kings in the next year. It estimates the overhead for each cost pool and cost driver activities as follows: How much does each unit cost to manufacture?
Carltons Kitchens makes two types of pasta makers: Strands and Shapes. The company expects to manufacture 70,000 units of Strands, which has a per-unit direct material cost of $10 and a per-unit direct labor cost of $60. It also expects to manufacture 30.000 units of Shapes, which has a per-unit material cost of $15 and a per-unit direct labor cost of $40. It is estimated that Strands will use 140,000 machine hours and Shapes will require 60,000 machine hours. Historically, the company has used the traditional allocation method and applied overhead at a rate of $21 per machine hour. It was determined that there were three cost pools, and the overhead for each cost pool is shown: The cost driver for each cost pool and its expected activity is shown: A. What is the per-unit cost for each product under the traditional allocation method? B. What is the per-unit cost for each product under ABC costing?
Bobcat uses a traditional cost system and estimates next years overhead will be $800.000, as driven by the estimated 25,000 direct labor hours. It manufactures three products and estimates the following costs: If the labor rate is $30 per hour, what is the per-unit cost of each product?
Computador has a manufacturing plant in Des Moines that has the theoretical capability to produce 243,000 laptops per quarter but currently produces 91,125 units. The conversion cost per quarter is 7,290,000. There are 60,750 production hours available within the plant per quarter. In addition to the processing minutes per unit used, the production of the laptops uses 10 minutes of move time, 20 minutes of wait time, and 5 minutes of rework time. (All work is done by cell workers.) Required: 1. Compute the theoretical and actual velocities (per hour) and the theoretical and actual cycle times (minutes per unit produced). 2. Compute the ideal and actual amounts of conversion cost assigned per laptop. 3. Calculate MCE. How does MCE relate to the conversion cost per laptop?

Pirate Seafood Company purchases lobsters and processes them into tails and flakes. It sells the lobster tails for $20.00 per pound and the flakes for $16.00 per pound. On average, 100 pounds of lobster are processed into 59 pounds of tails and 27 pounds of flakes, with 14 pounds of waste. Assume that the company purchased 3,400 pounds of lobster for $4 per pound and processed the lobsters with an additional labor cost of $8,000. No materials or labor costs are assigned to the waste. If 1,858 pounds of tails and 829 pounds of flakes are sold, calculate the allocated cost of the sold items and the allocated cost of the ending inventory. The company allocates joint costs on a value basis. (Round your answers to nearest whole number. Round cost per pound answers to 2 decimal places.)
