Cost parameters are as follows: Number of Components/Unit Switches @ $4/switch Resistors @ $8/switch Number of minutes required to complete finished unit Direct labor minutes per unit Machine minutes per unit 30 12 Hour rates used Direct labor rate= $10/hour Manufacturing overhead rates (I.e., the PDOHRS to use to apply overhead) Labor-related= $25/hour Machine-related= $40/hour Eastern applies manufacturing overhead using two cost drivers: direct-labor hours and machine hours. Ending Inventories The desired ending inventories for each of the two direct materials is 10% of the next quarter's respective amount of direct materials needed for production. The desired finished goods ending inventory is 5% of the next quarter's budgeted sales units. Beginning inventory for direct materials and finished goods are assumed to be zero as of 1/1/2016.
