acarda Company

acarda Company makes a composting bin that is subject to wide seasonal variations in demand. Unit product costs are computed on a quarterly basis by dividing each quarter’s manufacturing costs (materials, labour, and overhead) by the quarter’s production in units. The company’s estimated costs, by quarter, for the coming year are given below:
  Quarter
 
  First Second Third Fourth
Direct materials $ 507,600   $ 253,800   $ 126,900   $ 380,700  
Direct labour   253,800     126,900     63,450     190,350  
Manufacturing overhead   338,400     310,200     296,100     324,300  
Total manufacturing costs $ 1,099,800   $ 690,900   $ 486,450   $ 895,350  
Number of units to be produced   94,000     47,000     23,500     70,500  
Estimated unit product cost $ 11.70   $ 14.70   $ 20.70   $ 12.70  

Management finds the variation in unit product costs to be confusing and difficult to work with. It has been suggested that the problem lies with manufacturing overhead, since it is the largest element of cost. Accordingly, you have been asked to find a more appropriate way of assigning manufacturing overhead cost to units of product. After some analysis, you have determined that the company’s overhead costs are mostly fixed and therefore show little sensitivity to changes in the level of production.

 

Required:
1.

Calculate the predetermined overhead rate based on units and direct labour?
