Puget World, Incorporated, manufactures two models of television sets, the N 800 XL model and the N 500 model. Data regarding the two products follow: Model N see XL Model N 500 Activity Cost Pool Machine setups Special processing General factory Activity Measure Number of setups Machine-hours Direct labor-hours Additional Information about the company follows: a. Model N 800 XL requires $80 in direct materials per unit, and Model N 500 requires $30. b. The direct labor wage rate is $16 per hour. c. The company has always used direct labor-hours as the base for applying manufacturing overhead cost to products. d. Model N 800 XL is more complex to manufacture than Model N 500 and requires the use of special equipment. Consequently, the company is considering the use of activity-based costing to assign manufacturing overhead cost to products. Three activity cost pools have been identified as follows: Direct Labor- Hours per Unit Req 2A1 4.5 1.5 Req 2A2 Annual Production 3,000 units 11,000 units Overhead cost per unit Activity Measure Number of setups Machine-hours Direct labor-hours Model N see XL 95 Req 28 18,000 13,500 Total Direct Labor-Hours 13,500 16,500 30,000 Complete this question by entering your answers in the tabs below. Estimated Overhead Cost $ 390,000 180,000 1,980,000 $ 2,550,000 2. Assume that the company decides to use activity-based costing to assign manufacturing overhead cost to products. a(1). Compute the activity rate for each activity cost pool. a(2). Determine the amount of overhead cost that would be assigned to each model using the activity-based costing system. b. Compute the unit product cost of each model. Expected Activity Model N 800 XL Model N 500 $ 384.00 Model N 500 165 16,500 Total 260 18,000 30,000 Assume that the company decides to use activity-based costing to assign manufacturing overhead cost to products. Determine the amount of overhead cost that would be assigned to each model using the activity-based costing system. (Round your intermediate calculations and final answers to 2 decimal places.)
Variance Analysis
In layman's terms, variance analysis is an analysis of a difference between planned and actual behavior. Variance analysis is mainly used by the companies to maintain a control over a business. After analyzing differences, companies find the reasons for the variance so that the necessary steps should be taken to correct that variance.
Standard Costing
The standard cost system is the expected cost per unit product manufactured and it helps in estimating the deviations and controlling them as well as fixing the selling price of the product. For example, it helps to plan the cost for the coming year on the various expenses.
