The management of Nova Industries Inc. manufactures gasoline and diesel engines through two production departments, Fabrication and Assembly. Management needs accurate product cost information in order to guide product strategy. Presently, the company uses a single plantwide factory overhead rate for allocating factory overhead to the two products. However, management is considering the multiple production department factory overhead rate method. The following factory overhead was budgeted for Nova: Fabrication Department factory overhead $440,000 Assembly Department factory overhead 200,000 Total $640,000 Direct labor hours were estimated as follows: Fabrication Department 4,000 hours Assembly Department 4,000 Total 8,000 hours In addition, the direct labor hours (dlh) used to produce a unit of each product in each department were determined from engineering records, as follows: Production Departments Gasoline Engine Diesel Engine Fabrication…

Computing departmental overhead allocation rates The Oakman Company (see Short Exercise S19-1) has refined its allocation system by separating manufacturing overhead costs into two cost pools—one for each department. The estimated costs for the Mixing Department, $510,000, will be allocated based on direct labor hours, and the estimated direct labor hours for the year are 170,000. The estimated costs for the Packaging Department, $300,000, will be allocated based on machine-hours, and the estimated machine hours for the year are 40,000. In October, the company incurred 38,000 direct labor hours in the Mixing Department and 10,000 machine hours in the Packaging Department. Requirements Compute the predetermined overhead allocation rates. Round to two decimal places. Determine the total amount of overhead allocated in October.
Concord Corporation thinks machine hours is the best activity base for its manufacturing overhead. The estimate of annual overhead costs for its jobs was $1650000. The company used 1000 hours of processing on Job No. B12 during the period and incurred overhead costs totaling $1700000. The budgeted machine hours for the year totaled 20000. How much overhead should be applied to Job No. B12? $1700 $85000 $1650 $82500
