a.
Introduction: The budgeted amount for direct material to be used is based on
To calculate: The budgeted amount for direct material used, direct labor cost, and applied
b
Introduction: The standard cost per unit is the pre-established cost per unit. The standard costs indicate the planned cost of producing a unit of output. The standard cost of producing a unit includes the cost of material, cost of labor, and overheads.
To calculate: The Standard cost per unit.
c
Introduction: The companies incur a lot of costs in their day to operations and therefore need to control the cost. The costs can be controlled only if there are predetermined costs or budgets. The standard cost and budget can help in comparing actual costs with budgeted ones.

- Cold X, Inc. uses this information when preparing their flexible budget: direct materials of $2 per unit, direct labor of $3 per unit, and manufacturing overhead of $1 per unit. Fixed costs are $35,000. What would be the budgeted amounts for 20,000 and 25,000 units?arrow_forwardAdam Corporation manufactures computer tables and has the following budgeted indirect manufacturing cost information for the next year: If Adam uses the step-down (sequential) method, beginning with the Maintenance Department, to allocate support department costs to production departments, the total overhead (rounded to the nearest dollar) for the Machining Department to allocate to its products would be: a. 407,500. b. 422,750. c. 442,053. d. 445,000.arrow_forwardTaylor Corporation is analyzing the cost behavior of three cost items, A, B, and C, to budget for the upcoming year. Past trends have indicated the following dollars were spent at three different levels of output: In establishing a budget for 14,000 units, Taylor should treat A, B, and C costs as: a. semivariable, fixed, and variable, respectively. b. variable, fixed, and variable, respectively. c. semivariable, semivariable, and semivariable, respectively. d. variable, semivariable, and semivariable, respectively.arrow_forward
- Cloud Shoes manufactures recovery sandals and is planning on producing 12.000 units in March and 11,500 in April. Each sandal requires 1.2 yards if material, which costs $3.00 per yard. The companys policy is to have enough material on hand to equal 15% of next months production needs and to maintain a finished goods inventory equal to 20% of the next months production needs. What is the budgeted cost of purchases for March?arrow_forwardColonels uses a traditional cost system and estimates next years overhead will be $480,000, with the estimated cost driver of 240,000 direct labor hours. It manufactures three products and estimates these costs: If the labor rate is $25 per hour, what is the per-unit cost of each product?arrow_forwardBobcat uses a traditional cost system and estimates next years overhead will be $800.000, as driven by the estimated 25,000 direct labor hours. It manufactures three products and estimates the following costs: If the labor rate is $30 per hour, what is the per-unit cost of each product?arrow_forward
