Gilster Company

The Gilster Company, a machine tooling firm, has several plants. One plant, located in St. Falls, Minnesota, uses a job order costing system for its batch production processes. The St. Falls plant has two departments through which most jobs pass. Plantwide overhead, which includes the plant manager’s salary, accounting personnel, cafeteria, and human resources, is budgeted at $400,000. During the past year, actual plantwide overhead was $385,000. Each department’s overhead consists primarily of depreciation and other machine-related expenses. Selected budgeted and actual data from the St. Falls plant for the past year are as follows:

 

  Department A Department B
Budgeted department overhead            
(excludes plantwide overhead) $ 153,000   $ 439,900  
Actual department overhead   170,000     459,900  
Expected total activity:            
Direct labor hours   50,000     25,000  
Machine-hours   15,000     53,000  
Actual activity:            
Direct labor hours   50,500     23,900  
Machine-hours   15,800     55,000  

For the coming year, the accountants at St. Falls are in the process of helping the sales force create bids for several jobs. Projected data pertaining only to job no. 110 are as follows:
 
Direct materials $ 21,600  
Direct labor cost:      
Department A (3,000 hr)   45,000  
Department B (1,100 hr)   10,000  
Machine-hours projected:      
Department A   230  
Department B   1,200  
Units produced   15,000

Instructions

a-1.

Assume the St. Falls plant uses a single plantwide overhead rate to assign all overhead (plantwide and department) costs to jobs. Find the overhead rate by using expected direct labor hours. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
   

 

a-2.

Determine the projected amount of total manufacturing costs per unit for the units in job no. 110. (Round your intermediate calculations and final answer to 2 decimal places.)

2.value:
10.00 pointsRequired information

Assume the St. Falls plant uses three separate overhead rates to assign overhead costs to jobs.
b-1.

Find the plant wide overhead rate by using expected machine hours. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
   

 

b-2.

Find the department overhead rate using expected machine hours for Department A and Department B. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
   

 

b-3.

Calculate the projected manufacturing costs for job 110 using the three separate rates computed in b-1 and b-2 above. (Round your intermediate calculations and final answer to 2 decimal places.)

3.value:
10.00 pointsRequired information

c-1.

The sales policy at St. Falls dictates that job bids be calculated by adding 27 percent to total manufacturing costs. What would be the bid for job no. 110 using the overhead rate from part a? (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places and final answer to the nearest whole dollar amount.)
   

 

c-2.

The sales policy at St. Falls dictates that job bids be calculated by adding 27 percent to total manufacturing costs. What would be the bid for job no. 110 using the overhead rate from part b? (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places and final answer to the nearest whole dollar amount.)
   

 

c-3. Which of the overhead allocation methods would you recommend?
   
 
  Overhead rate by direct labor hours
  Overhead rate by machine hours

ReferencesWorksheetDifficulty: 3 HardCheck my work
4.value:
10.00 pointsRequired information

d.

Using the allocation rates in part b, compute the under- or overapplied overhead for the St. Falls plant for the year. (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places.)
