Julio produces two types of calculator, standard and deluxe. The company is currently using a traditional costing system with machine hours as the cost driver but is considering a move to activity-based costing. In preparing for the possible switch, Julio has identified two cost pools: materials handling and setup. The collected data follow: Number of machine hours Number of material moves Number of setups Total estimated overhead costs are $332,860, of which $158,400 is assigned to the material handling cost pool and $174,460 is assigned to the setup cost pool.

Greenwood Company manufactures two products-13,000 units of Product Y and 5,000 units of Product Z. The company uses a plantwide overhead rate based on direct labor-hours. It is considering implementing an activity- based costing (ABC) system that allocates all of its manufacturing overhead to four cost pools. The following additional information is available for the company as a whole and for Products Y and Z: Activity Cost Pool Machining Machine setups Production design General factory Activity Measure Machining Windows DESKTOP- Windows Number of setups Number of products Direct labor-hours Total overhead cost Activity Measure Machine-hours Number of setups Number of products Direct labor-hours Product Y FEB +1 (252) 484-2153 Oh nun Product Y Product Z 8,800 3,200 240 40 1 1 8,800 3,200 11.

The Gilster Company, a machine tooling firm, has several plants. One plant, located in St. Cloud, Minnesota, uses a job order costing system for its batch production processes. The St. Cloud plant has two departments through which most jobs pass. Plant-wide overhead, which includes the plant manager’s salary, accounting personnel, cafeteria, and human resources, is budgeted at $250,000. During the past year, actual plantwide overhead was $230,000. Each department’s overhead consists primarily of depreciation and other machine-related expenses. Selected budgeted and actual data from the St. Cloud plant for the past year are as follows.

Coronado Company produces high-quality microscopes for education and health care uses. The company uses a job order costing system. Because the microscopes’ optics require significant manual labor to ensure adherence to strict manufacturing specifications, the company applies overhead on the basis of direct labor hours. At the beginning of 2021, the company estimated its manufacturing overhead would be $1,960,000 and that employees would work a total of 49,000 direct labor hours. During March, the company worked on the following five jobs: Job BeginningBalance Direct Materialsadded duringMarch Direct Laboradded duringMarch Direct Labor Hoursadded duringMarch 134 $120,600 $6,000 $9,400 140 158 125,450 3,500 12,160 450 212 21,800 88,400 36,650 3,500 287 36,350 71,800 31,850 2,550 301 18,990 21,845 1,400 Total $304,200 $188,690 $111,905 8,040 Jobs 134 and 158 were started in January,…

Nichols Inc. manufactures remote controls. Currently the company uses a plant- wide rate for allocating manufacturing overhead. The plant manager believes it is time to refine the method of cost allocation and has the accounting department identify the primary production activities and their cost drivers: Activities Material handling Assembly Inspection Cost driver Number of parts Labour hours Time at inspection station The current traditional cost method allocates overhead based on direct manufacturing abour hours using a rate of £200 per labour hour. a. b. Allocation Rate £2 per part £20 per hour £3 per minute What are the indirect manufacturing costs per remote control assuming an activity- based-costing method is used and a batch of 50 remote controls are produced? The batch requires 100 parts, 6 direct manufacturing labour hours, and 2.5 minutes of inspection time. £4.00 per remote control £6.55 per remote control £24.00 per remote control £327.50 per remote control C. d.
