Problem A.

Wyoming Company manufactures radios in two different styles:

                 Radio Model                         Annual Sales in Units

Starry                                                      10,000

Polka   16,000 

Wyoming uses a traditional volume-based costing system in applying factory overhead using direct labor pesos. The unit prime costs of each product were as follows:

                                                    Starry                    Polka

Direct Materials

P38.00

P25.40

Direct labor:

 

 

1.2 x P14.60

17.52

 

0.9 x P14.60

 

13.14

 

The predetermined overhead rate was P350% (P1,349,040 ÷ 385,440) Direct labor budget per annual sales:

              Starry radio

 

10,000 x P17.52

 

          P175,200             

              Polka radio

 

16,000 x P13.14

 

            210,240             

              Total      

 

                             

 

P385,440

 

Factory overhead: 

Engineering and Design

P404,712

Quality control

269,808

Machinery

539,616

Miscellaneous Overhead

134,904

Total

P1,349,040

 

Wyoming’s controller had been researching activity-based costing and decided to switch to it. A special study determined Wyoming’s two radio models were responsible for the following proportions of each cost driver:

 

Starry

Polka

Engineering and Design

40%

60%

Quality control

45%

55%

Machinery

60%

40%

Miscellaneous Overhead

35%

65%

 

 

 

Required. Compute the following:

  1. Applied factory overhead per unit for the Starry Model under traditional costing.
  2. Applied factory overhead per unit for the Polka Model under traditional costing.
  3. Applied factory overhead per unit for the Starry Model based on Engineering and design, under ABC system.
  4. Applied factory overhead per unit for the Starry Model based on Quality Control, under ABC system.
  5. Applied factory overhead per unit for the Starry Model based on Machinery, under ABC system
  6. Applied factory overhead per unit for the Starry Model based on Miscellaneous Overhead, under ABC system
  7. Applied factory overhead per unit for the Polka Model based on Engineering and Design, under ABC system
  8. Applied factory overhead per unit for the Polka Model based on Quality Control under ABC system
  9. Applied factory overhead per unit for the Polka Model based on Machinery, under ABC system
  10. Applied factory overhead per unit for the Polka Model based on Miscellaneous Overhead, under ABC system

 

 

 

PROBLEM B. 

Crown Modules Inc. manufactures dining chairs and tables. The following information is available:

 

Dining Chairs

Tables

 

Total Cost

Machine Setups

200

 

600

P32,000

Inspections

250

 

500

P54,000

Labor hours

2,600

 

2,400

 

 

Crown Modules is considering switching from one overhead rate based on labor hours to activity-based costing.

Required.

  1. Compute total machine setups and inspection costs assigned to each product, using a single overhead rate.
  2. Compute total machine setups and inspection costs assigned to each product, using activity-based costing.
