Problem 16-50Â OVERHEAD RATES, UNIT Â COSTS
Xanning Company manufactures specialty tools to customer order. There are three pro- ducing departments. Departmental information on budgeted overhead and various ac- tivity measures for the coming year is as follows:
Â
 |
Welding |
Assembly |
Finishing |
Estimated overhead |
$200,000 |
$22,000 |
$250,000 |
Direct labor hours |
4,500 |
10,000 |
6,000 |
Direct labor cost |
$90,000 |
$150,000 |
$120,000 |
Machine hours |
5,000 |
1,000 |
2,000 |
Currently, overhead is applied on the basis of machine hours using a plantwide rate. However, Janine, the controller, has been wondering whether it might be worthwhile to use departmental overhead rates. She has analyzed the overhead costs and drivers for the various departments and decided that Welding and Finishing should base their overhead rates on machine hours and that Assembly should base its overhead rate on direct labor hours.
Janine has been asked to prepare bids for two jobs with the following information:
