The Current Designs staff has prepared the annual manufacturing budget for the rotomolded line based on an estimated annual production of 3,440 kayaks during 2020. Each kayak will require 54 pounds of polyethylene powder and a finishing kit (rope, seat, hardware, etc.). The polyethylene powder used in these kayaks costs $1.10 per pound, and the finishing kits cost $250 each. Each kayak will use two kinds of labor—2 hours of type I labor from people who run the oven and trim the plastic, and 3 hours of work from type II workers who attach the hatches and seat and other hardware. The type I employees are paid $14 per hour, and the type II are paid $11 per hour. Manufacturing overhead is budgeted at $390,400 for 2020, broken down as follows. Variable costs Indirect materials $41,280 Manufacturing supplies 44,720 Maintenance and utilities 86,000 172,000 Fixed costs Supervision 96,000 Insurance 14,400 Depreciation 108,000 218,400 Total $390,400
