Required:
- If Mason Company uses a plantwide predetermined overhead rate with direct labor-hours as the allocation base, how much
manufacturing overhead cost would be applied to Job A? JobB9 - Assume that Mason Company uses departmental predetermined overhead rates. The Machining Department is allocated based on machine-hours and the Assembly Department is allocated based on direct labor-hours. How much manufacturing overhead cost would be applied to Job A? Job B?
- If Mason multiplies its
job costs by a markup percentage to establish selling prices, how might plantwide overhead allocation adversely7 affect the company’s pricing decisions?

Because Delph has two manufacturing departments-Molding and Fabrication-it is considering replacing its plantwide overhead rate with departmental rates that would also be based on machine - hours. The company gathered the following information to enable calculating departmental overhead rates: Molding Fabrication Total Machine - hours 23,000 30,000 53,000 Fixed manufacturing…arrow_forward
