The management of Winterroth Corporation would like to investigate the possibility of basing its predetermined overhead rate on activity at capacity. The Corporation's controller has provided an example to illustrate how this new system would work. In this example, the allocation base is machine-hours. Estimated at the Beginning of the Year Сарacity Actual Machine-hours 60,000 70,000 56,000 $1,849,400 Manufacturing overhead $1,849,400 $1,849,400 If the Corporation bases its predetermined overhead rate on capacity, then as shown on the income statement prepared for internal management purposes, the cost of unused capacity would be closest to: Multiple Choice $264,200 $369,880 $186,000 $123,293

Mariposa, Inc., produces machine tools and currently uses a plantwide overhead rate, based on machine hours. Harry Whipple, the plant manager, has heard that departmental overhead rates can offer significantly better cost assignments than can a plantwide rate. Mariposa has the following data for its two departments for the coming year: Department A Department B Overhead costs (expected) $528,000 $132,000 Normal activity (machine hours) 110,000 55,000 Required: 1. Compute a predetermined overhead rate for the plant as a whole based on machine hours.$fill in the blank 1 per machine hour 2. Compute predetermined overhead rates for each department using machine hours. Round your answers to one decimal place. Department A $fill in the blank 2 per machine hour Department B $fill in the blank 3 per machine hour 3.

A manager must decide which type of machine to buy, A, B, or C. Machine costs (per individual machine) are as follows: Machine Cost A $ 60,000 B $ 50,000 C $ 60,000 Product forecasts and processing times on the machines are as follows: PROCCESSING TIME PER UNIT (minutes) Product AnnualDemand A B C 1 16,000 3 4 4 2 10,000 6 5 1 3 15,000 1 3 6 4 17,000 5 3 4 a. Assume that only purchasing costs are being considered. Compute the total processing time required for each machine type to meet demand, how many of each machine type would be needed, and the resulting total purchasing cost for each machine type. The machines will operate 10 hours a day, 240 days a year. (Enter total processing times as whole numbers. Round up machine quantities to the next higher whole number. Compute total purchasing costs using these rounded machine quantities. Enter the resulting total purchasing cost as a whole number. Omit the "$" sign.) Total…
