Black Diamond Company produces snow skis. Each ski requires
2 pounds of carbon fiber. The company's management predicts
that 5,600 skis and 6,600 pounds of carbon fiber will be in
inventory on June 30 of the current year and that 156,000 skis
will be sold during the next (third) quarter. A set of two skis
sells for $360. Management wants to end the third quarter with
4,100 skis and 4,600 pounds of carbon fiber in inventory. Carbon
fiber can be purchased for $21 per pound. Each ski requires 0.5
hours of direct labor at $26 per hour. Variable overhead is
applied at the rate of $14 per direct labor hour. The company
budgets a fixed overhead of $1,788,000 for the quarter.
Prepare the direct labor budget for the third quarter.
