Baird Manufacturing Co. expects to make 30,500 chairs during the year 1 accounting period. The company made 4,600 chairs in January. Materials and labor costs for January were $16,600 and $24,200, respectively. Baird produced 1,800 chairs in February. Material and labor costs for February were $9,900 and $13,700, respectively. The company paid the $518,500 annual rental fee on its manufacturing facility on January 1, year 1. The rental fee is allocated based on the total estimated number of units to be produced during the year. Required Assuming that Baird desires to sell its chairs for cost plus 30 percent of cost, what price should be charged for the chairs produced in January and February? (Round intermediate calculations and final answers to 2 decimal places.) January February Price per unit
Helio Company has two products: A and B. The annual production and sales of Product A is 1,850 units and of Product B is 1,250 units. The company has traditionally used direct labor-hours as the basis for applying all manufacturing overhead to products.
